What's different in Ohio
- Freeze-thaw cycles and ice dams are the main causes of roof damage, so ice-and-water shield at eaves is standard.
- The roofing season runs mainly spring through fall; winter work is possible but slower.
- Labor costs sit below the national average.
How the Ohio figure is calculated
Labor is roughly 55% of an installed roof replacement job. The median wage for roofers in Ohio is $49,390 a year, against a national median of $55,440 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025). We apply that 11% below-national difference to the labor share only, which moves the whole installed range by about 6% down. Materials are priced nationally, since they vary far less by state than labor does. Prices inside Ohio still vary by metro area and by contractor. Read the full method.
