Delaware Roof Pros provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Delaware, OH for residential and commercial properties across Delaware County and the Olentangy corridor. Asphalt is what nearly every roof in this county is made of, and the interesting decisions are not about the shingle at all. They are about the four accessories nobody photographs, and the way the whole set gets written onto a page.
A manufacturer's better warranty generally requires that the starter strip, the hip and ridge, the underlayment and the ventilation all come from that manufacturer's own system. Mix them and you have bought a shingle carrying an ordinary limited warranty. So the accessories belong on the estimate by name, and if a bid says only laminate shingles and a total, you cannot tell which warranty you are actually buying.
Here is the recommendation that costs us money. On a rental in the older part of the city, or a house you intend to sell within about three years, the mid-grade laminate is the right purchase and the designer profile is not. The heavier shingle earns its premium over decades of ownership, and if you will not be there for them you are buying curb appeal for the next owner at your own expense.
What we will not compromise on is the ice barrier at the eaves. Ohio winters here are not severe, but they are exactly the kind that produce a freeze, a thaw and a refreeze inside the same week, and that is the pattern which pushes meltwater back up under the courses at the coldest part of the roof. It is cheap while the deck is open and impossible afterwards.
Color choice deserves one honest sentence. The county's post-2000 stock was built with a narrow palette of weathered wood and driftwood grays, and picking outside it is fine on an isolated lot and conspicuous in a platted subdivision. That is a taste question and we will not pretend it is a technical one. What we will tell you is which of the algae-resistant blends actually hold up on north slopes here, because that part is not taste.
Everything gets fastened in the manufacturer's nailing band, six per shingle on the rakes and the open elevations, with the starter reversed at the rakes as well as the eaves. It is not glamorous work. It is the entire difference between a shingle that reaches its rated wind class and one that merely came with the class printed on the wrapper.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ASTM D1970 ice barrier membrane, step flashing woven at sidewalls, counterflashing folded into a ground-in reglet, synthetic underlayment printed with fastener grids, ASTM D3161 Class F seal strips, H-clipped 7/16-inch OSB decking — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Delaware and nearby communities including Powell, Sunbury, Galena, Ashley.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs
The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with ASTM D1970 ice barrier membrane, step flashing woven at sidewalls, counterflashing folded into a ground-in reglet, synthetic underlayment printed with fastener grids, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Delaware job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Delaware County and the Olentangy corridor means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
