Our Work in Glendale
Glendale is a northern suburb of Cincinnati and the site of the Glendale Historic District. Developed in 1851 along the railroad line, Glendale is one of the earliest planned residential subdivisions in the country, and its historic district was named a National Historic Landmark in 1977. The village's symbol is the black squirrel, and 25 decorated squirrel statues stand around town.
Our part in Glendale is the roofs, and the gutters, siding and soffit that go with them. We keep to what we know, which is asphalt shingles. For a slate or tile roof, you'll want a specialist in that material.
Because Glendale is nearer our Blue Ash location, you may also want to read about storm damage repair in Blue Ash.

Why Glendale Homes Need Professional Roofing Service
Roofs in Glendale fail in the same handful of ways. Here's what we look for.
- Exposed matting or fiberglass. At this stage a repair won't buy much time.
- An old caulk job. Caulk hides a leak for a while. It doesn't fix it.
- Leaks at flashing, valleys and pipe boots. These are the most common repair calls we get.
- No ice and water shield. Roughly 35% to 45% of the roofs we replace are missing it.
- Decking that's out of code. When we can get in the attic, we check the sheathing before we price the job.
Our Approach: Inspect, Plan, and Protect
We keep the process simple and keep you informed at each step.

Common Roof Problems We Fix in Glendale, OH
Here is what tends to go wrong on a shingle roof, and what it means.
- Granule loss. Check your gutters: that grit is your roof wearing away.
- Leaks at flashing, valleys and pipe boots. A repair here often saves the rest of the roof.
- Wind and fallen limbs. After a storm, walk the property and look up.
- Exposed matting or fiberglass. First the matting shows, then the shingles look crystallized, then the fiberglass is bare.
- Decking that's out of code. Roughly one home in five that we re-roof needs new sheathing.
Why Glendale Homeowners Trust SWORD Roofing
Homeowners tell us these are the things that mattered.
- Honest and Upfront. It feels good to be honest. Whatever you choose, we're not pushing you.
- Repairs, Not Just Replacements. A leaking flashing doesn't mean a new roof, and we won't tell you it does.
- Owens Corning Only. SureNail gives installers a clear target, which helps prevent nails driven too high, too low or too deep.
- A Project Manager on Every Job. The project manager's first job is confirming the right materials and color arrived.
- Clear Pricing and Financing. We tell you what drives the price: the pitch, how cut-up the roof is, and extras like skylights and chimney flashing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing Service in Glendale
How do I know if my roof needs repair or replacement?
We inspect it and give you both options. If a repair will hold, we'll say so, and we'll talk you out of a replacement you don't need.
How long does a typical roof installation take?
Most of our roof replacements are finished in one day.
What roofing materials work best for homes in Ohio?
Asphalt shingles, and only Owens Corning. We don't install metal, flat, tile or slate roofs.
Do you offer financing options?
We do. Service Finance Company offers flexible financing options, and our standard program is 18 months.
Will you work directly with my insurance company?
We help with the roofing side: photos, measurements and, when a shingle can't be matched, an NTS report that identifies it. Policy questions go to your agent.
How can I maintain my roof between professional inspections?
We don't sell maintenance packages, because a new roof doesn't need one for years. Just keep the gutters clean.
