Your Stow Roofing & Exterior Team
Alt & Alt isn’t a company that services Stow from somewhere else. We’re based right here in Summit County, we know the streets around Darrow Road, and we maintain the same kind of homes you live in.

A Hometown Team for Stow Homes
There’s a real difference between a contractor who just drives through your city and one who’s part of it. We’re the second kind.
We’ve worked on mid-century homes near Darrowville and newer builds in Eastwick, Heather Hills, and Bayside Lakes. That range matters, because a roof or a foundation detail on an older home isn’t handled the same way as on a new one. Two decades in Summit County means we already know what each Stow home needs.
Being local also means we answer fast. When a storm rolls through near Silver Springs Park and the Summit Metro Parks trails, we’re already close by — not routing a crew in from another county.
How We Build Around Stow's Climate
Stow weather is tougher on homes than people expect, and it adds up year after year.
Lake-effect snow loads the roof for weeks. Freeze-thaw cycles work moisture into every crack, joint, and shingle seam. Summer brings hail and hard storms, and the mature tree canopy near Silver Springs Park and the Summit Metro Parks trails drops debris into gutters all fall.
We build and repair with all of that in mind — deeper footings, better flashing, and materials rated for exactly these conditions. Our storm damage repair Stow service also steps in fast after severe weather, documenting damage and handling the insurance claim for you.
Full Home and Exterior Care in Stow
Most Stow homeowners would rather have one team they trust than a list of separate specialists. We cover the whole home, inside and out.
Roofing
As a roofing contractor working across Stow, we install, replace, and repair roofs built for the snow load Summit County winters put on them. Whether it’s a fast roof repair after a hailstorm off Graham Road or a full roof replacement on an aging ranch near Darrow Road, we run ice-and-water shield high enough for lake-effect conditions, scope the work honestly, and back it with manufacturer and workmanship warranties. That’s why Stow homeowners looking for a dependable roofer keep calling us back.
Siding
Our siding work protects Stow walls from moisture while sharpening the whole facade. We install and repair vinyl, insulated, and fiber-cement siding, flashing every window and door so water can’t slip behind the panels — a bigger deal here than most realize, because Stow’s freeze-thaw swings crack vinyl at the joints and nailing points when it’s installed too tight. On Stow’s older post-war homes we match profiles and colors so repairs disappear, and insulated options cut the heat loss that runs up winter bills.
Fencing
From privacy to pets to pool safety, our fence installation service builds fences that stay straight through Stow’s freeze-thaw. We set posts below the 32-inch frost line and anchor them in concrete, so nothing leans by the second winter. We install wood, vinyl, aluminum, and chain-link, and we handle the City of Stow zoning permit — including the corner-lot sight-triangle rule that caps fence height near intersections, the single most common reason a Stow fence permit gets kicked back. Wood fences finish with staining and sealing that holds color for years.
Gutters
Between heavy Ohio rain and Stow’s mature tree cover, drainage matters here. Our gutter installation service moves water away from your foundation with seamless, properly pitched systems formed on-site. We set hangers into sound fascia, add guards where the canopy around Silver Springs and Fish Creek is heavy, and size downspouts to handle hard spring storms before water can back up against the house or freeze into ice dams at the roofline.
Decks
Our deck builder service designs and builds outdoor space that stands up to Stow seasons. Whether you want low-maintenance composite, classic pressure-treated wood, or a custom multi-level build for one of the sloped, wooded lots common toward the Cuyahoga Valley side of town, we set frost-line footings 32 inches deep and flash the ledger board so water stays out of the house. We also repair, stain, and seal tired existing decks.
Brickwork
Skilled masonry adds strength and character that outlasts nearly everything around it. We build and restore brick patios, walkways, steps, columns, and chimneys, and we tuckpoint failing mortar joints before Stow’s freeze-thaw works water deeper into the wall. Every joint is laid clean and sealed against the cycle, so your brickwork keeps its structure and its looks for decades.
Additions & Remodels
When your Stow home needs more room rather than repairs, our additions and remodels service adds space that blends into the existing house. We build room additions, kitchen and bath remodels, sunrooms, and second-story expansions, matching roofline, siding, and finishes so the new work looks original. From City of Stow permits and framing to the final walkthrough, one accountable crew handles the whole build.

Stow Questions, Honest Answers
Do you offer free estimates in Stow?
Yes. Every inspection and estimate is completely free, done on-site, and carries no obligation. We assess the full project in person — roof, siding, gutters, or anything else — and give you clear, itemized pricing before you decide anything. There’s never a fee to have us take a look, and never any pressure to move forward afterward.
How fast can you respond after a storm in Stow?
Because we’re based nearby in Summit County, we don’t dispatch crews from hours away when weather hits Stow. Most storm inspections are booked within one to two business days, and when there’s active water coming in, we move faster to tarp and stabilize before the damage grows. We also document everything for your insurance claim.
Do you work on both older and newer Stow homes?
Absolutely. We’ve handled mid-century homes near Darrowville and newer builds in Eastwick, Heather Hills, and Bayside Lakes. Older homes come with their own quirks — aged flashing, original framing, non-standard rooflines — and after 20-plus years working across Summit County, we’ve seen and solved all of them.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, fully. We carry general liability and workers’ compensation on every single job, protecting you and your property from the moment we arrive. We’re also A+ rated with the BBB and hold manufacturer certifications from Owens Corning, GAF, and CertainTeed.
Do you handle insurance claims for storm damage?
We do, from beginning to end. We inspect the roof and exterior, photograph every bit of damage, and prepare the documentation your insurer requires. Then we deal with your adjuster directly, so you’re not left decoding claims language or chasing approvals yourself.
What does an exterior project cost in Stow?
It depends entirely on scope — a targeted repair is a very different figure from a full replacement or a home addition. Instead of guessing, we provide free, itemized, on-site estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins. Flexible financing through Hearth is available if you’d rather spread the cost over time.
