Questions
Do you take requests from all of Madisonville and Mariemont?
Yes, across ZIP 45227. The roofer who calls back confirms your street is in their service area.
Does a roofer working in Madisonville and Mariemont need a license?
Ohio does not issue a state license for roofing. The Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses five commercial trades, among them electrical and plumbing, and roofing is not one of them. The City of Cincinnati requires every contractor working inside city limits to hold a current contractor registration, renewed each year, under Municipal Code Chapter 1106.
Does the inspection cost anything?
Many roofers check storm damage without charging, but not all do. Ask when you set the visit, and ask whether you get photos and a written note either way.
