Checking Ascent Roofing Solutions against the Ohio record
Ohio roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Request a current certificate of insurance from the insurer; licenses and insurance are checked separately.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.

The housing stock in Newark
Half the homes in Newark were built before 1963; the typical house is about 63 years old. Pre-1980 construction makes up 72.5 percent of homes in Newark.

That is long enough for roughly 3 asphalt roof cycles, so replacement, not first install, is the usual job.
