Short answer: As of September 2026, the five highest-scoring roofing contractors in the Youngstown-Warren, OH metro on The Roofing Brief Contractor Score are Groover Roofing & Siding, Inc. (81.6), Shell Roofing & Exteriors (68.1), Clear Roofing and Siding LLC (67.1), Watertight Roofing Systems LLC (64.9), AIM Roofing & Construction, Inc. (57.4). Every one holds a manufacturer certification that can be verified independently, every rating below has been corroborated against at least one source outside the certification registry, and no company paid to appear here.
The Roofing Brief scored 7 certified roofing contractors serving the Youngstown metro on a published, reproducible formula, then researched each of the top five individually to confirm its record. Ohio licenses no roofers at state level, so the only credential attached to a Youngstown roofing job is municipal: the City of Youngstown will not issue a building permit to a contractor that has not first completed its general contractor registration, and the surrounding townships each run their own arrangements. The metro also sits on a state line, and one of the five ranked below is based in New Castle, Pennsylvania, where a different registration regime applies. With no state board able to discipline anyone, the BBB file and the manufacturer certification are doing the work a licence does elsewhere, which is why this page prints the complaint records in full.
The conditions a Youngstown roof has to be specified for
The Mahoning Valley’s severe weather is summer wind rather than hail. NOAA holds 207 severe wind reports for Mahoning and Trumbull counties over the decade, 46 of them at severe thresholds, against 38 hail reports with nothing above 1.75 inches and ten weak tornadoes. August is the peak month and 2024 the busiest year. The single worst event on the file was on 5 November 2017, when a downburst estimated at up to 95 mph cut a mile-long damage path through Boardman from the Hitchcock Woods area across the neighbourhood bordering Glenwood Avenue.
That profile should shape what you buy. A roof here is far more likely to fail at the edges in a downburst than to be bruised by hail, so the fastening pattern, the starter course and the edge metal matter more than the impact rating, and the manufacturer’s high-wind nailing schedule belongs in the contract rather than in the sales talk.
Winter adds the slower damage. The valley sits on the western edge of the snowbelt, where lake-effect snow and repeated freeze and thaw build ice at the eaves of houses whose attics leak heat. Ice-barrier membrane at the eaves and valleys, a genuinely cold and ventilated attic, and gutters cleared before the first thaw are what stop the recurring winter leak, and on the older housing stock common across Youngstown a tear-off is the only way to see what decades of that have done to the deck.
Ohio issues no roofing licence, so the checks are local and worth making. The City of Youngstown requires contractors to complete a general contractor registration before it will grant a building permit, and Boardman, Canfield, Austintown and the other townships run their own permit offices. Ask which registration the contractor holds for your jurisdiction, ask for the permit number, and read the BBB complaint record, because in a state with no licensing board that record is the only conduct history anyone publishes.

1. Groover Roofing & Siding, Inc. — TRB Score 81.6
Groover Roofing & Siding, Inc. is based in Girard, OH, in business since 1995, led by Brian Groover, President, BBB accredited since 21 July 2016, A+ rating; 1 complaint closed in the last 3 years, and holds President’s Club standing on the GAF certification registry.

Independently corroborated:
- BBB lists Groover Roofing & Siding, Inc. at 1101 E Liberty St, Girard, OH 44420, BBB Accredited since 7/21/2016, A+ rating, Mr. Brian Groover as President, with 48 customer reviews on file and 1 complaint closed in the last 3 years.. BBB business profile
- The company states it has been ‘protecting and improving homes since 1995’, that owner Brian Groover started with two helpers, a used pickup truck and an old ladder, and that it serves Northeastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania from 1101 E. Liberty St., Girard.. Company website (Who We Are)
- GAF lists Groover Roofing & Siding Inc of Girard, OH in its residential contractor directory at President’s Club level.. GAF contractor directory
What they actually do. Residential and commercial roofing (steep-slope and flat), plus siding and EIFS, seamless spouting, chimney repair and rebuilds, skylights, windows and doors, and masonry work across the Mahoning Valley and western Pennsylvania.
Why it ranks here. President’s Club certification on the GAF registry, 214 reviews at 4.6, and thirty years trading from Girard under the same family name. It leads the metro by 13.5 points, mostly on certification tier and proximity.
Best fit for: Mahoning County homeowners who want the highest certification tier available locally.
What we would want clarified. One complaint was closed with the BBB in the last three years, and the company’s own site claims GAF Master Elite status while GAF’s directory shows it at President’s Club level; no state contractor licence record was located, as Ohio does not license residential roofers. We publish this because a ranking that only prints the flattering findings is an advertisement, not an assessment.

2. Shell Roofing & Exteriors — TRB Score 68.1
Shell Roofing & Exteriors is based in New Castle, PA, in business since 2012, led by David Micco, President, BBB accredited since 11 July 2024, A+ rating; 4 complaints closed in the last 3 years, and holds Master Elite standing on the GAF certification registry.

- The company states it has operated since 2012, is a GAF Master Elite contractor, gives PA registration #105988, and serves Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio and Southwestern New York.. Company website
What they actually do. Full exterior remodeller working out of a New Castle showroom: asphalt and metal roofing, vinyl and steel siding, replacement windows, seamless aluminium gutters and gutter guards, and custom decking.
Why it ranks here. 251 registry reviews, the deepest base in this top five, from a Master Elite firm working the Ohio and Pennsylvania line out of New Castle.
Best fit for: Homeowners on the eastern side of the metro, and anyone weighting review volume.
What we would want clarified. Four complaints were closed with the BBB in the last three years, accreditation is recent (July 2024), and the firm is based in Pennsylvania rather than in the Youngstown metro itself; the PA registration number #105988 is the company’s own claim and was not checked against the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s HIC register.

Clear Roofing and Siding LLC is based in Canfield, OH, in business since 2020, led by Gregory Clear, Owner, BBB a+ rated but not BBB accredited; BBB file opened 28 August 2020, no complaints on file, and holds Certified standing on the GAF certification registry.
Certifications held: Certified (GAF), HAAG Certified Roof Inspector (company claim), VSI Certified Vinyl Siding Installer (company claim), GAF roof ventilation certification (company claim). Certification by more than one manufacturer is uncommon and requires meeting each programme’s separate standards for insurance, training and track record.

What they actually do. Owner-operated roofing and siding contractor doing roof replacement and repair, leak detection and storm-damage restoration, vinyl siding, soffit and fascia, gutters, chimney flashing and attic ventilation.
Why it ranks here. A 4.9 rating across 194 reviews, the highest rating in the Youngstown top five, from a Canfield firm holding base certification only.
Best fit for: Canfield and Boardman homeowners who weight customer rating above certification tier.
What we would want clarified. The firm is only about five years old, is not BBB accredited and has zero BBB customer reviews on file, and the HAAG/VSI certifications are the company’s own unverified claims. The founding year rests on the BBB file rather than a state registry document I could load.

- Birdeye hosts a review page for Watertight Roofing Systems of Hubbard, OH showing 33 reviews.. Birdeye review page
What they actually do. Small GAF Master Elite roofing contractor in Hubbard founded by a former insurance adjuster, working residential roof replacement and repair and insurance-claim work.
Why it ranks here. Master Elite certification with a spotless BBB file: accredited since 2020 with no complaints closed in three years.
Best fit for: Homeowners who want a clean complaint record and Master Elite standing close to home.
What we would want clarified. Registered only in October 2019 and holding a very thin review base (21 reviews on GAF, 3 on the BBB), so the track record is short. The company’s about page at watertightroofingsystems.com returned HTTP 403 and lists a Wexford, PA location, so I could not confirm from the company itself whether the Hubbard and Wexford operations are one business. We publish this because a ranking that only prints the flattering findings is an advertisement, not an assessment.

Why it ranks here. The longest formal record in this top five, accredited with the BBB since June 2006 with no complaints closed in the last three years.
Best fit for: Homeowners weighting a long, quiet complaint history over review volume.
What we would want clarified. Zero BBB customer reviews are on file and the company’s own about page says ‘founded 15 years ago’ against a BBB business start date of December 2000, so the two dates do not agree.

The 207 wind reports that shape a Youngstown roof
Aggregate hail counts tell you very little about a specific roof. These are the individual events: every severe-weather report logged by the National Weather Service across the 2 counties of the Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area over ten years, with the dates, the stone sizes and the towns they landed on. Over that decade the metro logged 38 hail reports, 207 severe thunderstorm and high wind reports and 10 tornadoes. Reported property damage from hail, severe wind and tornado over that decade totalled $3.7 million; flood and winter-storm losses are counted separately and are not included.

The biggest hail to fall on Youngstown in a decade
| Date | Stone size | Reported near | County |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 August 2023 | 1.75 in | Lake Milton | Mahoning |
| 14 April 2024 | 1.75 in | Leavittsburg | Trumbull |
| 14 April 2024 | 1.5 in | Trumbull | Trumbull |
| 14 April 2024 | 1.5 in | Poland | Mahoning |
| 5 May 2025 | 1.25 in | Canfield | Mahoning |
| 12 August 2023 | 1.25 in | Craig Beach | Mahoning |
The largest stone on record for this metro fell on 12 August 2023 near Lake Milton, measured at 1.75 inches. That is ping-pong-ball sized, enough to bruise asphalt shingles and shorten a roof’s life without necessarily looking dramatic from the ground.
Wind. The strongest thunderstorm gust logged in the metro was 83 knots, about 96 mph, near Southern Airways Arp on 5 November 2017. Asphalt shingles begin lifting at roughly 67 mph when they are correctly nailed, and considerably below that when they are not.
Tornadoes. 10 tornadoes touched down in these counties over the decade, the strongest rated EF1 near Fowler on 17 August 2017.
What the National Weather Service wrote about it
The NWS logs a written account of each severe-weather episode. This is its description of the 5 November 2017 event near Southern Airways Arp, reproduced verbatim:
A thunderstorm downburst with winds estimated to be as much as 95 mph caused extensive damage in Boardman. A mile long damage path began in the Hitchcock Woods area and stretched across a neighborhood bordered by Glenwood Avenue to the west and Market Street to the east. Around 20 homes were damaged in that neighborhood with the damage most concentrated along Shorehaven Drive. Most of the damage was caused by fallen trees landing on homes. At least one home had a tree penetrate the roof. Other homes had missing siding or roofing material. The damage path continued across Market Street where several business were damaged. An automobile dealership sustained the worst damage. It lost most of…
A roof in this metro is built against events like that one, as recorded by the agency that recorded it rather than by a contractor selling the repair.
When it happens. Severe weather reports cluster in August (55), July (43), April (41). The worst years on record were 2024 (49), 2019 (46), 2017 (28). If you are scheduling non-urgent work in Youngstown, the months outside that window are when crews are least stretched and least likely to be triaging emergency callouts ahead of your job.
Source: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, Storm Events Database, county-level detail files 2016 to 2025, filtered to the counties of this statistical area by The Roofing Brief. Damage figures are as reported to the NWS and undercount insured losses.
What to do with this. Hail is not the governing risk in Youngstown. Weight your decision toward wind rating, ventilation and flashing detail rather than paying extra for impact-rated shingles.
What to verify before a Youngstown contractor starts
There is no state roofing licence in OH. Ohio issues no state roofing contractor licence. A roofing business needs only to register with the Secretary of State, and there is no state trade exam or state board that licenses roofers.
Regulation is municipal. Cincinnati requires contractor registration, including a certificate of liability insurance, proof of workers compensation and an application fee, filed with the city Permit Center.
That absence is the most important fact on this page. Where a state issues no credential, a manufacturer certification that can be revoked is the only quality signal a homeowner can actually check, which is why this ranking is built on certification rather than star ratings.
Check here: City of Cincinnati contractor registration. Because Ohio licenses nobody at state level, check registration with the specific municipality where the work will happen, and lean harder on manufacturer certification and insurance verification.
Four checks to run before you sign anything, in any state.
- Verify certification at the source. Use the GAF verification tool rather than trusting a badge image on a company website.
- Get the certificate of insurance from the insurer, not the contractor, and confirm general liability and workers compensation are both active on the day work starts.
- Confirm who pulls the permit. If a contractor asks you to pull it as the homeowner, that moves liability onto you. Decline.
- Get warranty terms in writing before any deposit, and check the manufacturer warranty being promised actually requires the certification tier the contractor holds.
Who else is certified in Youngstown
7 certified roofing contractors serve the principal cities of the Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area, of which 1 hold the top President’s Club tier. The pool carries 843 customer reviews between them at a mean rating of 4.514.

How these Youngstown rankings were produced
Every contractor in the Youngstown-Warren, OH pool was scored out of 100 on four published components: certification tier, a Bayesian adjusted rating, review depth and distance from the metro centre. In this metro that meant scoring 7 certified contractors, of whom 1 hold President’s Club standing and 2 Master Elite, against a metro mean rating of 4.514. The top five were then researched individually against Better Business Bureau records, state licence registers and manufacturer directories. Where that research turned up something awkward it is on the page, and no placement was paid for.
The full method, the weightings, what the GAF certification tiers actually mean, who is eligible to be ranked and what we do not claim are all set out on our roofer ranking methodology page. Last updated: September 2026. Scoring run: 2026-09-27. Corrections go to the editor and are actioned on verification.
Questions Youngstown homeowners ask
Who is the best roofer in Youngstown, OH?
Groover Roofing & Siding, Inc. of Girard, OH scores highest in the Youngstown metro on The Roofing Brief Contractor Score, at 81.6 out of 100 as of September 2026. It holds President’s Club certification with a 4.6 rating across 214 reviews. Highest-scoring is not the same as best fit for your specific job, and the four companies behind it score within 24.2 points.
How many certified roofing contractors serve Youngstown?
7 contractors on the GAF certification registry serve the principal cities of the Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area as of September 2026, of which 1 hold President’s Club status.
How much damaging hail does Youngstown get?
The Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area recorded 28 hail reports of 1 inch or larger and 0 of 2 inches or larger between 2016 and 2025 in the NOAA Storm Events Database. The largest hailstone reported measured 1.75 inches.
Did any contractor pay to appear on this list?
No. The Roofing Brief takes no placement fees, no lead fees and no affiliate commission from any roofing contractor. Ranking comes entirely from the published formula applied to public registry data, followed by an individual research pass on the top five.
What was the worst hailstorm in Youngstown in the last ten years?
The largest hailstone logged by the National Weather Service in the Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area between 2016 and 2025 measured 1.75 inches, reported near Lake Milton on 12 August 2023. That is ping-pong-ball sized, enough to bruise asphalt shingles and shorten a roof’s life without necessarily looking dramatic from the ground. Across the decade the metro recorded 38 hail reports. Reported property damage from hail, severe wind and tornado over that decade totalled $3.7 million; flood and winter-storm losses are counted separately and are not included.
When is the worst time of year for roof damage in Youngstown?
Severe-weather reports in the Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area cluster in August, July, April, on the NOAA record for 2016 to 2025. Outside those months local crews are not triaging storm damage, so lead times are shorter and scheduling is easier.
Do roofers need a licence in OH?
Ohio issues no state roofing contractor licence. A roofing business needs only to register with the Secretary of State, and there is no state trade exam or state board that licenses roofers. Regulation is municipal. Cincinnati requires contractor registration, including a certificate of liability insurance, proof of workers compensation and an application fee, filed with the city Permit Center.
What should I check before hiring a roofer in Youngstown?
Because Ohio licenses nobody at state level, check registration with the specific municipality where the work will happen, and lean harder on manufacturer certification and insurance verification.
Is Youngstown a hard market to find a good roofer in?
Ohio licenses no roofers at state level, so the only credential attached to a Youngstown roofing job is municipal: the City of Youngstown will not issue a building permit to a contractor that has not first completed its general contractor registration, and the surrounding townships each run their own arrangements. The metro also sits on a state line, and one of the five ranked below is based in New Castle, Pennsylvania, where a different registration regime applies. With no state board able to discipline anyone, the BBB file and the manufacturer certification are doing the work a licence does elsewhere, which is why this page prints the complaint records in full.
Is wind or hail the bigger risk to a roof in Youngstown?
Wind, by a wide margin. The Youngstown-Warren, OH statistical area logged 207 severe thunderstorm and high wind reports against 28 hail reports of an inch or more between 2016 and 2025. Wind damage shows up at the rake, ridge and edge rather than across the field of the roof, so the fastening schedule and edge detail matter more here than the impact rating of the shingle.
