Types of Residential Roofs We Install
We offer two types of roofing choices for your home, and we’ll help you understand the pros and cons of each.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles are versatile, and energy-efficient and come in a variety of colors and styles. If you’re looking for an affordable option that still offers class and aesthetics, asphalt shingles are for you
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is more expensive initially, but makes up for it in lifespan. Metal roofs can last anywhere from 40-70 years, and may help lower your utility bills by controlling the temperature inside your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know whether my roof needs repairs or a complete replacement?
A roof repair may be enough when the damage affects a limited area, such as a few missing shingles, damaged flashing, or a small leak. A replacement may offer better long-term value when the roof has widespread shingle damage, recurring leaks, sagging sections, moisture-damaged decking, or several previous repairs. Roof age, storm exposure, ventilation, and installation quality also affect the decision. Walker Roofing & Construction provides a free inspection and recommends the most practical option based on the roof’s actual condition.

Should I choose asphalt shingles or metal roofing for my Ohio home?
Both materials can protect Northeast Ohio homes when installed correctly. Asphalt shingles are affordable, versatile, and available in many colors and styles. They are a practical choice for homeowners who want a traditional appearance and a lower initial cost. Metal roofing costs more at installation but may last between 40 and 70 years, depending on the material, maintenance, and weather exposure. It can also reflect more solar heat than some traditional roofing products. The best choice depends on your budget, preferred appearance, long-term plans, and the design of your home.
How long does it take to replace a residential roof?
Most residential roof replacements take approximately one to three days. However, the timeline can change based on the roof’s size, slope, design, material, weather conditions, and the amount of decking that needs repair. Larger homes and complex roofs with multiple valleys, chimneys, skylights, or steep sections may require additional time. Before work begins, homeowners should clear the driveway, move fragile items away from walls, secure outdoor furniture, and prepare for noise and vibration. The roofing team should explain the schedule, cleanup process, and any possible delays before installation starts.
Can Walker Roofing & Construction help with storm damage and insurance claims?
Yes. Walker Roofing & Construction specializes in insurance claims assistance for roof damage caused by storms. After severe weather, homeowners should document visible damage, protect the property from further water entry when it is safe to do so, contact their insurer, and schedule a professional roof inspection. Ohio homeowners insurance may cover sudden damage caused by wind, hail, falling objects, or related water intrusion, but coverage depends on the policy, deductible, roof age, and whether the insurer uses replacement cost or actual cash value. Normal wear, deterioration, and neglected maintenance are generally not covered.
