When it comes to preserving local history, every detail matters. That’s why we at CCS Roofing were honored to be chosen for a key role in restoring the roof of Ashland’s historic Schine’s Theatre. This high-profile project was more than just a roofing job—it was a step toward preserving a cherished landmark for future generations.
A Historic Opportunity
Built decades ago, Schine’s Theatre has long been a cultural icon in Ashland, Ohio. However, time had taken its toll on the building’s roof, with some sections standing over 60 years old. When the opportunity came to restore this structure, we knew it was a project that would challenge our expertise and highlight the craftsmanship CCS Roofing is known for.
Working hand-in-hand with the project’s architect and Ashland’s Mayor, Matt Miller, we replaced the roof with modern panels that combine durability with the timeless aesthetic the theatre deserves. This collaboration ensured that every detail respected the building’s original charm while meeting today’s standards for safety and performance.
Challenges We Tackled
Restoring a roof on a historic building comes with unique challenges:
- Preserving Structural Integrity: We had to carefully navigate the installation process to protect the original structure.
- Historic Sensitivity: Maintaining the theatre’s iconic look required special attention to materials and design.
- Tight Deadlines: With a goal to complete our portion within a month, our team worked efficiently to stay on track without compromising quality.
Through planning, precision, and a deep understanding of roofing for historical buildings, we overcame these hurdles to deliver results that we’re proud of.
Why This Project Matters
At CCS Roofing, we believe every project tells a story. Schine’s Theatre isn’t just a building—it’s a place where memories are made, a cornerstone of the Ashland community, and a reminder of the city’s vibrant history. Being part of its restoration was both an honor and a responsibility we didn’t take lightly.
This project was made possible through the dedication of the Ashland Theater Restoration Organization, a group committed to preserving historic landmarks. Many of its members were also involved in the restoration of The Ohio State Reformatory, famously known as the filming location for The Shawshank Redemption. At CCS Roofing, we take pride in contributing to projects that protect and restore the architectural heritage of Ohio communities.
