What we know about Brunswick roofs

Census estimates put Brunswick's median year built at 1979, and about 28 percent of homes were built in the 1970s alone. Brunswick grew from about 11,700 people in 1960 to about 27,600 in 1980, so whole neighborhoods share the same age of roof. When one house on a street needs a roof, the neighbors are usually close behind.

Quarter-size hail sits right at the size where shingles start to bruise. The damage often doesn't show from the ground in spring and starts to show the following summer, when the heat works on the cracked mat. If your Brunswick roof hasn't been looked at since March, it's worth a free inspection before winter.

A 68 mph gust can break the seal strips that hold shingles down. Lifted shingles may lay back flat afterward, which is why we photograph every slope instead of judging from the yard.

On the roofs our crews see here: mostly architectural asphalt shingles, 6/12 to 8/12 pitch, one layer.

On March 31, 2026, the National Weather Service received two reports of 1.00 inch (quarter-size) hail in Brunswick, one southeast of town and one in the city. On August 11, 2026, a personal weather station west of Brunswick measured a 68 mph gust. Hail that size and wind that strong are both enough to damage shingles.

The City of Brunswick's Division of Building at 4095 Center Road (330-558-6830) lists roofing among the home projects that need a permit. Every contractor and subcontractor has to register with the city before working there, with a bond and liability insurance on file. Ask any roofer you're considering whether they're registered in Brunswick.

About 20 miles northwest of our office, out Route 18 and up I-71 to Center Road.
