Older Homes Around Uptown
The streets around Uptown Westerville and Otterbein University are full of homes a hundred years old or more. Re-roofing them takes patience: plank decking to inspect, chimney flashing that’s been patched for decades, and attics that were never built for modern insulation.
Newer Neighborhoods
Most of Westerville was built from the 1960s on as the city spread into Franklin and Delaware Counties. Homes from the 1980s and ’90s are on their first or second replacement roof, and many built in the 2000s are getting close. A free inspection will tell you where yours stands.
