Uston Roof & Masonry brings 28 years of practical trade experience to Summit County homes. We handle everything from complete structural roof tear-offs to delicate mortar restoration on historic brick. No high-pressure sales reps—just straightforward property assessments and solid craftsmanship built to protect your investment.
Living around here means watching your home endure heavy freeze-thaw cycles, driving spring rain, and severe winter ice dams. If your flashing gives out or moisture creeps behind your brickwork, sub-zero temperatures will crack that masonry apart faster than you think.
As an exterior remodeler in Summit County, OH, we build and repair exteriors with those local weather patterns in mind. That means choosing breathable mortar formulations, putting down heavy-duty ice barrier membranes under shingles, and making sure water sheds cleanly away from your foundation.
Your home's exterior takes a beating through every season. We provide focused solutions designed to improve protection, performance, and appearance.

When shingles start curling or losing their protective granules, patching usually just delays the inevitable. We strip old materials clear down to the wood decking, replace any rotted plywood sheets, and install fresh underlayment alongside modern architectural shingles.

Water sneaking into porous brick freezes in January, expanding and pushing the structure apart. When mortar joints crumble past the point of simple tuckpointing, we knock down the damaged courses of brick and rebuild the stack solid.

Natural slate and clay tile can last upwards of a century, provided the underlying timber framing can hold the load. These heavy natural materials require precise hand-craftsmanship and reinforced decking.

Hail and fallen branches can strip granule coatings off shingles or lift metal flashing without causing immediate interior drips. We inspect the entire roof, photograph hidden structural damage, and map out what needs repair.

Crumbling mortar ruins your home's curb appeal and lets rainwater seep straight into interior wall cavities. We grind out failing joints and pack them with weather-tested mortar blended for local humidity and temperature shifts.

Sectional gutters often split at the seams after a winter of holding heavy snow. We roll custom continuous aluminum and copper gutters on-site, cut to the exact lengths of your eaves.

You do not always need a whole new roof just because water dropped through a ceiling light fixture. Many leaks come down to cracked rubber pipe boots, lifted valley flashing, or a couple of wind-damaged shingles.

The flat concrete crown at the top of your chimney takes direct impact from rain and snow. Once hairline cracks open up, water trickles down behind the outer layer of brick.

Specialized flat roofing for standing water, temperature shifts, and low-slope structures across Summit County and Northeast Ohio.

"Our 1920s brick chimney was shedding mortar every spring. They rebuilt the top eight courses, matched the old brick better than I expected, and poured a new cap. Two winters later it still looks sharp."
"Full tear-off on our ranch. They found two sheets of rotted decking near the valley and showed me the photos before replacing them instead of just shingling over it. Crew ran a magnet over the yard twice."
"Hail took out half our shingles last June. John met the adjuster on the roof and pointed out damage the adjuster had missed on the first pass. The claim covered far more than I would have gotten alone."
"We had water staining a bedroom ceiling and assumed the worst. Turned out to be a cracked pipe boot about six feet from the stain. Fixed in an afternoon and they did not try to upsell us a whole roof."
"Seamless gutters and new downspouts around the whole house. They sized the spouts up because our old ones overflowed onto the foundation every heavy rain. First real storm since and the basement stayed dry."
"Repointing on our front porch stonework. They used a softer mortar mix because of the age of the brick and explained exactly why. Quote was itemized and the final bill matched it to the dollar."
We provide structural repairs, masonry repointing, and roofing services to homeowners across the region.
