12 roofing listings are recorded at Columbus, Indiana addresses. None of them has a Google rating matched to it yet, so what follows is contact detail rather than reputation data.

Hiring a roofer in Columbus: what this page knows
Indiana issues no roofing license, so in Columbus the city or county's own registration and permit rules are the ones that apply; the Indiana roofing license rules cover what the state does and does not regulate.
Indiana's peak severe-weather season: April–July. The Indiana storm center lists any National Weather Service alert active right now. NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 55 severe-weather events for Bartholomew County between 2016 and 2026 — the county the listings on this page put Columbus in. The most recent event meeting the dataset's severity definition was a thunderstorm wind gust of 60 kt (about 69 mph) on August 16, 2026, a preliminary report that has not yet been through NOAA's quality-control review.

Licensing for roofers working in Columbus
No state license is required to roof a house in Indiana; city or county licensing usually still applies. The state leaves the roofing specialty to local government.
In practice that makes the local layer the one that matters in Columbus: a business license or contractor registration where the jurisdiction requires one, plus a permit and an inspection through Bartholomew County or the city for the work itself.
Source: official Indiana guidance. Checked August 2026. Licensing rules change — verify before you sign anything.
What roofing work costs
We have not modeled a cost index for Columbus, so there is no Columbus figure here. These are the national baseline bands, unadjusted.
National reference bands, not quotes and not local numbers. Local labor rates, permit fees and access all move them.

* The most recent data year is partial. NOAA publishes storm reports on a rolling basis and the final months are still being processed, so a low count in the last year is not evidence of a quiet year. The curated archive behind these counts runs through May 31, 2026; anything later sits in the preliminary block below.
Notable events in the archive
- Mar 19, 2025 -- Tornado (EF2) -- $1.60M property damage reported
- Jun 29, 2023 -- Thunderstorm Wind (52 kt gust) -- $350K property damage reported
- Jun 1, 2022 -- Hail (Quarter - Half Dollar hail, 1.25 in)
- Jun 15, 2019 -- Thunderstorm Wind (70 kt gust) -- $85K property damage reported
Selected by the dataset’s own rule rather than by editorial choice: the largest hail, the peak wind gust, the strongest tornado and the two costliest events by recorded property damage, deduplicated and newest first. Any dollar figure above is NOAA’s recorded estimate for that one event.
Preliminary — not yet in the permanent archive
5 preliminary storm reports have been filed for Bartholomew County since June 1, 2026: 4 thunderstorm wind events and 1 tornado. The strongest gust reported is 60 kt (about 69 mph), on August 16, 2026.
Preliminary reports covering 2026-05-31 onward come from National Weather Service storm reports filed as events occur. They have not yet been through the quality-control review that produces the permanent archive, and individual reports may later be revised, combined or withdrawn. NOAA Storm Prediction Center storm reports.
What these counts cover. County figures count events NOAA recorded against a county (hail, thunderstorm wind and tornadoes). High wind, winter storms, ice storms, blizzards, heavy snow, hurricanes and tropical storms are recorded against National Weather Service forecast zones rather than counties, so they are reported at state level instead. Counts reflect events that were observed and reported.
“Significant” on this page means an event meeting any one of three tests: hail 1.00 in across or larger, a wind gust of 58 kt or more (the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm criterion), or any tornado. It is a severity definition used by this dataset and is not an official NOAA classification.
The damage figure. $2,437,200 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Bartholomew County over the period — a county total, not a figure for any one property, any one building or any one claim. NOAA records these figures as estimates made at the time of reporting. They are not adjusted for inflation, and they are frequently absent or zero — a zero means nothing was recorded, not that nothing was damaged.
Source. Archived figures come from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database, covering 2016 through May 31, 2026. Anything after that date comes from NOAA Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm reports and is labelled preliminary wherever it appears. Both are US Government works in the public domain.
