Skip to content Finding out your roof needs repairs is never good news. Whether it’s a small leak or significant damage, you need experienced roofing professionals who can fix the problem and restore your roof to peak condition. The challenge is, most homeowners don’t have a trusted contractor on hand, and many aren’t sure where to begin their search. That’s where Frogtown Roofing comes in. We’re Ohio’s trusted roof repair specialists.
Call us today before your home turns into a swamp. We’ll inspect the damage and provide you with a free, no-obligation repair estimate.
To ensure we deliver top-notch roof repairs for our valued customers in the Northwest OH area, we continuously train and educate ourselves on the industry’s best practices. Thanks to our proven expertise, we’re honored to hold impressive certifications, including the CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster™ certification, the highest credentialing from this esteemed manufacturer.

Maumee isn’t just part of our service area. It’s where Frogtown Roofing Plus is headquartered. Our main office is at 423 Tomahawk Dr, so most Maumee homes are only a few minutes from the shop where our crews load up every morning.
That’s a real advantage when a roof starts leaking. We can get out for an inspection quickly, bring the right materials the first time, and come back to check a repair after the next storm without it being a hassle for anyone. If you ever need to talk to us face to face, you know exactly where we are.
Maumee’s story starts on the river. General Anthony Wayne built Fort Deposit here in August 1794 on his way to the Battle of Fallen Timbers, and in 1817 a town plat was laid out at the Foot of the Rapids of the Maumee River. Many of the homes and buildings of those early residents still stand along the city’s tree-lined streets and historic districts.
Today Maumee has 13,896 residents (2020 census) on about 10 square miles, and its school district is described as the oldest chartered district in Ohio. That long history shows up on the roofs. A drive through town takes you past older homes in the historic core, generations of single-story ranches, and two-story houses under trees that have been growing for decades.
We see that mix up close. One recent job was a ranch home here where we repaired the roof with CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles in Shenandoah, matched to the rest of the house so the fix doesn’t stand out from the street.
Ranch homes have long, low eaves, and that’s where winter does its damage. Heat escaping from the living space melts snow higher on the roof, and the water refreezes at the cold edge. The ice backs water up under the first few courses of shingles, so leaks show up at exterior walls and in soffits rather than in the middle of a ceiling.
Mature trees bring their own problems. Branches that rub the roof scrape granules off the shingles, falling limbs crack them during summer storms, and fall leaves fill gutters until water spills back over the fascia. On shaded slopes, moisture lingers long enough to shorten shingle life.
Gutters deserve a mention too. Under mature trees, a clogged gutter is one of the most common causes of what looks like a roof leak. Water overflows behind the gutter, soaks the fascia and runs into the soffit or wall. We check gutters and downspouts on every repair inspection, and if they’re the real problem, we’ll tell you. Frogtown also installs seamless gutters and Leaf Relief gutter protection when an upgrade makes sense.
On the older homes, the weak points are usually chimneys, valleys and the joints where additions meet the original roof. A good repair finds the real entry point, replaces what’s failing with matching material, and fixes the condition that caused it, whether that’s ventilation, drainage or flashing.
Our trucks leave from Tomahawk Dr every morning and drive past the roofs we’ve repaired across Maumee. Our crew lives and works here. That’s the best quality control we know of, and it’s why every Maumee repair is backed by our workmanship warranty.
