Yes, in addition to our comprehensive roofing services, we provide a full range of exterior home improvement solutions. Our siding installation services include vinyl, aluminum, insulated, metal, fiber cement, Hardie Board, and LP SmartSide options to enhance your home’s curb appeal and protection.

The cost of a roof replacement in Columbus typically ranges from $8,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on several factors including roof size, pitch, material choice, and complexity of the project. Asphalt shingle roofs are generally the most budget-friendly option, while premium materials like architectural shingles, impact-resistant shingles, or metal roofing will cost more but offer enhanced durability and longevity. At Imperial Roofing & Contracting, we provide free inspections and detailed estimates so you know exactly what to expect, and we offer financing options with payments as low as $129 per month to make your new roof affordable.

In Ohio’s climate, a quality asphalt shingle roof typically lasts 15 to 30 years, depending on the type of shingles installed and how well the roof is maintained. Standard 3-tab shingles generally last 15-20 years, while architectural (dimensional) shingles can last 25-30 years, and premium impact-resistant shingles may last even longer. Ohio’s weather—including freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow, ice dams, summer heat, and severe storms—can impact roof lifespan, which is why proper installation by certified professionals like Imperial Roofing & Contracting is crucial for maximizing your roof’s longevity and ensuring it withstands our challenging Midwest conditions.

Several warning signs indicate it may be time for a roof replacement, including shingles that are curling, cracking, or missing; granules collecting in your gutters; visible daylight through roof boards in your attic; sagging areas on your roof; water stains on interior ceilings or walls; or a roof that’s 20+ years old. If you notice any of these issues, it’s important to schedule a professional inspection promptly to assess the damage and determine whether repairs will suffice or if a full replacement is necessary. Imperial Roofing & Contracting offers free roof inspections throughout Columbus and Worthington to help homeowners make informed decisions about their roofing needs.

The best time to replace a roof in Ohio is typically late spring through early fall (May through October), when weather conditions are most favorable with moderate temperatures and less precipitation. However, professional roofing contractors like Imperial Roofing & Contracting can successfully install roofs year-round as long as temperatures are above freezing and conditions are dry. Summer and early fall are particularly popular because the warm weather helps shingles seal properly, but scheduling in spring or late fall can sometimes mean shorter wait times and potentially better pricing due to lower demand.

The customer service I received was amazing, all of my problems were swiftly and masterfully resolved. My roof was recently damaged following the recent weather events and so I had to get it replaced and rather quickly. I came to this company, and they gave me a free quote with a good price, so I said yes. They came out and replaced my roof in only one day and it looks better than it ever has been. This is where I'm going to go if I ever have to do it again.

This fall after suffering hail damage, we requested an estimate. That same day Imperial Roofing sent out Wm. Cox to inspect our roof. I was impressed with his knowledge of the insurance claims process. So within several weeks , a crew he supervised was installing a new roof on our house. The job was completed on time and done professionally and with quality materials. Imperial Roofing and Contracting truly puts it's customers first.

Imperial Roofing had the contract to replace damage siding due to high winds. They worked with our insurance company to get the whole house replaced with new siding. Their crew took 3 days once they started to work and completed the job. Very happy with the job they did. Sy and Karl were very responsive to our requests and follow ups. I recommend this company highly.
