Roofing and gutters in Jamestown, Ohio
Jamestown homes come in two groups. In the village itself, about half were built in 1939 or earlier; in New Jasper Township, where many homes carry a Jamestown address, more than a third went up in the 1970s, according to Census figures. On Navajo Trail we replaced a roof through the homeowner's insurance claim, and for another Jamestown homeowner we took down the old gutters and put up new ones.
Most Jamestown roofs we replace come in between $8,500 and $18,000. Call 937-215-8663 to have us look at yours; the roof inspection is free.
Services in Jamestown
- Roof repair:When a Jamestown roof leaks, we trace the water to where it enters, take photos, and rebuild the whole elevation that's leaking so the repair holds.
- Free roof inspection:It starts in the yard: we look at the whole property before anyone climbs onto the roof.
- Roof replacement:On Navajo Trail the old roof came off down to a deck that was still sound, so it stayed, and the new roof went on with Owens Corning Duration shingles, new chimney flashing and a ridge vent.
- Seamless gutters:For a Jamestown homeowner we took down the old gutters, put up new ones and left the job clean.
- Storm damage roofing:Two tornadoes touched down northeast of the village in 2019. After any storm we inspect at no cost, as soon as we can, and photograph the damage for your insurer.

The part of the roof you'll never see
Code sets the minimum. We build past it on every roof: two rows of ice and water shield on the eaves, one row in the valleys, ice and water shield along every roof-to-wall transition and around every protrusion, then two layers of synthetic underlayment overlapped 24 inches, 26 on low slopes. It's a better-built roof at a price comparable to a standard one, and decades of peace of mind.
From now on, every Jamestown roof is built to the Helping Hands Roofing Standard: two rows of ice and water shield along the eaves, one row in the valleys, and two layers of synthetic underlayment overlapped 24 inches, 26 on low slopes. Code sets the minimum. We build past it.

We keep a deck that's sound and replace only the boards that won't hold a nail. On Navajo Trail the old deck stayed under the new roof.
Local considerations
In the Village of Jamestown, 49.3 percent of homes were built in 1939 or earlier and 17.7 percent in the 1990s; in New Jasper Township, 35.8 percent were built in the 1970s (U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2019 to 2023, DP04).
On the night of May 27 to 28, 2019, the National Weather Service confirmed two tornadoes northeast of Jamestown: an EF1, and an EF2 with winds estimated at 120 mph.
Building permits come from Greene County Building Regulation. A plain tear-off and reroof needs none; replacing or repairing damaged rafters, trusses or sheathing does.
What does a roof cost in Jamestown?
On a Jamestown house a new roof most often runs $8,500 to $18,000, near $3.50 to $7.00 per square foot. The roof's size, pitch and layer count decide where yours lands. On a village house from before 1940 we check the deck at the inspection; any board that won't hold a nail is replaced with 7/16 inch OSB and photographed. Financing is available.
Jamestown roofing questions
Can my roof be repaired instead of replaced?
If the rest of the roof has years left, yes. We rebuild the whole elevation that's leaking so it matches and holds, and the repaired elevation is covered by our Lifetime Workmanship Warranty.
Is a roof inspection in Jamestown free?
Yes. We check the entire property from the ground, then the whole roof, and walk you through the photos afterward.
How old are the houses around Jamestown?
In the village, about half were built in 1939 or earlier. In New Jasper Township, more than a third went up in the 1970s (Census Bureau).
Have tornadoes hit near Jamestown?
Yes. On the night of May 27 to 28, 2019, the National Weather Service confirmed an EF1 and an EF2 northeast of the village. After any storm we'll check your roof at no cost.
Do I need a permit to reroof in Jamestown?
Not for a plain tear-off and reroof. Greene County requires one when damaged rafters, trusses or sheathing are replaced or repaired.
Does the roof deck always get replaced?
No. On Navajo Trail the deck was sound, so the new roof went right on it.
Do you replace gutters in Jamestown?
Yes. We took down a Jamestown homeowner's old gutters and put up new seamless gutters; his review is below.
