General
What areas do you serve?
We serve homeowners across all of Northeast Ohio — more than 40 communities spanning Summit, Stark, Medina, Cuyahoga, Portage, Mahoning, and Lorain counties. We're based in Barberton, so we're never far away.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Renew Home Exteriors is fully licensed and insured, and we're proud to be GAF-certified installers with an Angi Super Service Award and a 4.7-star Google rating from nearly 100 reviews.
How long have you been in business?
We've been protecting and improving Northeast Ohio homes for more than 20 years. That experience shows up in clean installs, fair pricing, and work we stand behind.
Is my estimate really free?
Absolutely. Every estimate is free and no-pressure. We'll take a look, walk you through your options, and give you an honest price — no obligation to move forward.
Roofing
How long does a roof last in Northeast Ohio?
A properly installed architectural shingle roof typically lasts 25–30 years here, depending on ventilation and weather exposure. Standing seam metal roofs can last 50 years or more.
Do I need a full roof replacement or just a repair?
It depends on the age of the roof and the extent of the damage. A few missing shingles or a small leak is often repairable, while widespread wear, granule loss, or storm damage usually calls for replacement. We'll give you an honest recommendation after a free inspection.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs are torn off and replaced in one to two days, weather permitting. We'll give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you posted along the way.
Do you offer metal roofing?
Yes — we install concealed-fastener standing seam metal roofing, a premium, long-lasting option that sheds snow and stands up beautifully to Ohio weather.
Siding
What types of siding do you install?
We install vinyl, insulated vinyl, and fiber-cement siding, along with trim, soffit, and fascia. We'll help you choose the look and durability that fits your home and budget.
Will new siding lower my energy bills?
It can. Insulated siding adds a layer of thermal protection that helps your home hold temperature better, which can reduce heating and cooling costs — on top of the fresh new look.
How long does siding last?
Quality vinyl and fiber-cement siding, installed correctly with proper moisture management, typically lasts 20–40 years with very little maintenance.
Windows & Doors
Are replacement windows worth it?
If your windows are drafty, hard to operate, or single-pane, replacing them improves comfort, cuts noise, lowers energy bills, and boosts curb appeal. Many homeowners notice the difference the same day.
What kinds of windows and doors do you install?
We install energy-efficient double- and triple-pane replacement windows in a range of styles, plus entry, storm, and patio doors — all properly flashed and sealed for a tight, draft-free fit.
Storm & Insurance
Do you work with insurance companies?
Yes. We document storm, wind, and hail damage thoroughly and work alongside your insurance adjuster so your claim reflects the full scope of the damage. We're happy to walk you through the process.
How do I know if I have storm or hail damage?
Storm damage isn't always visible from the ground. We offer free, no-obligation inspections — we'll get up there, photograph everything, and give you a clear report you and your insurer can act on.
Do you offer emergency services?
Yes. If a storm leaves your home exposed, we can provide emergency tarping and leak mitigation to protect your home before we complete the full restoration.
Financing
Do you offer financing?
Yes — no money down and 0% financing for up to 60 months with approved credit, through Service Finance Company. It's a great way to get the work your home needs now and pay over time.
How do I apply for financing?
You can apply online in just a few minutes right from our Financing page — there's no cost and no obligation to apply.
Our Process
What happens from estimate to completion?
It's simple: we start with a free inspection and estimate, schedule your project, complete the installation with a tidy, respectful crew, then do a final walkthrough to make sure you're thrilled with the result.
Do you clean up after the job?
Always. We protect your landscaping during the work and do a full cleanup afterward, including a magnetic sweep for stray nails. We leave your property better than we found it.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. We back our workmanship with a written guarantee, and your materials are covered by the manufacturer's warranty. We'll go over the exact coverage for your project during your estimate.
Do you have any current offers?
Right now you can get 100 feet of gutters free with a full roof replacement, plus no money down and 0% financing for up to 60 months with approved credit. Ask us for the details!
