Roofing and Exterior Work That Holds
SOS Home Ohio is a Hilliard-based exterior contractor handling roof replacement, siding, gutters, and permanent lighting for homeowners across the Columbus metro. If your roof took wind or hail damage and you're not sure what you're dealing with, call 614-913-3809, we schedule estimates the same week.
We work from one address on Franklin Street in Hilliard and cover the full I-270 corridor: Dublin, Upper Arlington, Grove City, Westerville, Powell, Gahanna, and every suburb between. From the first inspection to the final walkthrough, we work through your home's exterior the way it actually needs to be done, not the fastest way, not the cheapest shortcut.
The SOS name means what it says. When a storm moves through Franklin County and something goes wrong overhead, we respond, we assess, and we give you a straight answer on what it will take to fix it, including help navigating the insurance process if that's where you're headed.
How we work
Local crew, not a call center.
No sales pitch. No upsell you didn't ask for. We'll tell you when something doesn't need doing yet.
We're independent, not a franchise. The person who quotes your job is the person who shows up to do it.

What We Do
Every Exterior Service, Under One Roof
Shingle or flat, vinyl or aluminum, seamless or sectional. We cover the full exterior so you don't manage four different contractors.
01
Roof Replacement
Shingle roofing with Malarkey, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, and IKO. Flat roofing with Versico EPDM, TPO, Smart Coat, and Flintlastic. We pull the permit, run the tear-off, and walk you through every step before we start.
02
Roof Repair
Wind damage, hail strikes, failing flashing, leaking valleys, we find the source and fix it. No pressure to replace what doesn't need replacing. Paul or Andrew will show you exactly what they see before any work begins.
03
Gutter Installation
Seamless and sectional aluminum gutters, plus gutter protection systems including Leaf Relief, Leaf Smart, Leaf Logic, and the Leaf Relief Duo Pro. Paired with every roofing job or scheduled independently.
04
Vinyl Siding
We install Westlake Building Products' Exterior Portfolio, Ohio-made vinyl, insulated vinyl, cellular PVC, and aluminum in a full range of fade-resistant colors. Shutters, vents, and trim included where the job calls for it.
05
Permanent Lighting
Professional-grade permanent lighting installation using Minleon® LED fixtures, the same hardware used in commercial installations worldwide. Holiday, landscape, and event configurations available.
06
Roof Maintenance
Annual roof maintenance keeps small issues from becoming replacement-sized problems. We inspect the field, valleys, flashing, gutters, and attic ventilation and give you a written condition report after every visit.

Had a very bad garage roof , this company did a remarkable job and I now have a building I can use . Thanks for the hard work and great crew. THEY ALSO WENT BEYOND GETTING ME THE INSURANCE PAYMENT THAT I WAS ENTITLED TOO. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY IF YOU WANT A COMPANY THAT WILL TREAT YOU WITH RESPECT AND HONESTY.
Sheila BowersmithSep 2026 · GoogleSOS is a great roofing company. Andrew, site supervisor, has been very professional and friendly. My wife and Iiked the way he explained about the roof replacement process, now we feel comfortable with the result of the work. Thanks
Tad NishimuraSep 2026 · GoogleThis company was exceptional. On time, great work and extremely kind and informative! I would recommend to anyone needing roof repairs or replacement. A trustworthy company.
Beth BairdJul 2026 · GoogleSOS did a great job with my roof. From the initial estimate, working with the insurance company, explaining the process. They completed the job professionally and made sure everything was to my satisfaction before I signed off. They helped turn a very complex process into an easy one.
Greg RamahMay 2026 · GooglePaul from SOS came out today and was great. He clearly showed me the problem areas and what they would need to do to fix them. There was no sales pressure to get a new roof like many places do. I will do another review once the repairs are done.
Keith GreyMar 2026 · GooglePaul came out to inspect the roof after those big wind & hail storms. He was able to identify the issues and proposed affordable, smart solutions. Highly recommend!
Laura AMar 2026 · GoogleVery pleased with the level of detail provided in the roof inspection following wind and hail damage to my roof and chimney cap. The inspection was thorough and comprehensive, offering a clear picture of the condition and remaining life of the entire roof system—including gutters, downspouts, roof surface, and attic interior. Paul and his team did an excellent job helping me understand my situation and the next steps toward resolving the issues. They answered all of my questions with patience and expertise.
Andy WirtMar 2026 · GoogleSOS Roofing is true to its name. I contacted the company for emergency help for a friend. The company owner, Paul, responded immediately, arrived on-site in two to three hours, and had the emergency handled a short time after that. Due to a roof leaking badly in a serious rain and windstorm, a speedy response and solution was definitely needed. SOS Roofing provided that solution, preventing serious interior damage to the home. I highly recommend this company and its owner.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work with homeowners' insurance on storm damage claims?
Yes. Paul and Andrew have helped multiple homeowners navigate the insurance process after wind and hail damage, including making sure the settlement reflects the full scope of what needs to be repaired. We document the damage on-site and can meet with the adjuster directly if that helps move things forward.
What roofing brands do you install?
For shingle roofing we install Malarkey, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, IKO, and GAF. For flat roofing we work with Versico EPDM and TPO, Smart Coat, Flintlastic, and CertainTeed. We'll recommend the right material for your roof's slope, exposure, and budget. Not just whatever is easiest to source.
How quickly can you get out for an estimate?
For most addresses in Franklin County and the surrounding suburbs, we schedule same-week. Call 614-913-3809 during business hours, Monday through Friday 8 AM to 6 PM, or Saturday and Sunday 10 AM to 4 PM, and we'll confirm a time before we hang up.
Do you only do roofing, or can you handle siding and gutters on the same project?
We handle the full exterior, roofing, vinyl siding, gutters (including seamless and sectional), gutter guards, and permanent lighting. Most of our larger projects bundle at least two trades, which saves scheduling time and means one crew lead is accountable for the whole job.
What's included in a roof inspection?
We look at the roof surface, valleys, flashing, drip edge, gutters, downspouts, and the attic interior where accessible. You get a written condition report and photos of anything that needs attention. There's no obligation to hire us for repairs after an inspection.
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Hilliard and serve the full Columbus metro, Dublin, Upper Arlington, Grove City, Worthington, Powell, Westerville, Gahanna, New Albany, Reynoldsburg, Pickerington, Canal Winchester, Delaware, Marysville, and more. If you're along the I-270 corridor or within a reasonable drive, call and we'll confirm.
