Roof Replacement Areas in Louisville, Ohio
Louisville, Ohio, is a small city, but its roofs are not all alike. The age of the house decides the pitch, the decking, the number of layers and even which office handles the permit. Pick the area that sounds like yours.
Four parts of Louisville, four kinds of roof
Downtown Louisville Historic District
Houses from the late 1800s to the 1930s around Main and Chapel. Steep gables, dormers, board decking and brick chimneys.
Mid-century ranch streets
The 1950s to 1970s ring that holds nearly half the city's homes. Low, simple roofs that are mostly on their second or third covering.
Newer subdivisions
Streets built since 1980 toward the edges of town. Larger roofs with hips and valleys, many still wearing builder shingles.
Nimishillen Township
The township that surrounds the city. Farmhouses, acre-lot ranches, open wind and a different set of permit offices.
How Louisville's housing breaks down by age
Census estimates for 2020 to 2024 count about 4,560 housing units in the city, with a median build year of 1973. Roughly 17 percent were built before 1940, about 49 percent between 1950 and 1979, and about 31 percent since 1980. Louisville sits in Stark County about seven miles northeast of Canton, and it is not to be confused with the much larger Louisville in Kentucky.

Not sure which group your house falls in?
It does not matter. The owner looks at the roof you actually have and reports on that.
