DST Roofing Services
Commercial roofing for Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) properties and 1031 exchange investors throughout Columbus, OH.
Columbus, Ohio has become one of the most active DST acquisition markets in the Midwest, with sponsors including Griffin-American Healthcare, Inland Private Capital, and a range of regional syndicators regularly closing on NNN retail, Class A and B industrial, and medical office assets across Franklin County and the surrounding collar communities. The city's sustained population growth, Big Ten university anchor, and position as a major e-commerce distribution hub — Columbus-area distribution centers serve a substantial percentage of the Midwest's same-day delivery footprint — have made it a primary target for 1031 exchange capital seeking stable passive income. For a San Diego or Atlanta DST sponsor closing on a Gahanna industrial asset or a Dublin medical office building, the roof is typically the single largest deferred maintenance variable not yet quantified in the offering memorandum.

Questions
DST Roofing Services questions
How does OSU's procurement process work for roofing projects?
Ohio State University roofing projects follow Ohio public procurement rules, which vary based on project value. Projects above the competitive bid threshold go through the OFCC process with an architect of record, formal competitive bid, and contractor qualification review. Smaller projects may go through the university's informal purchasing process. We are familiar with both paths and maintain the qualification documentation OSU Facilities requires. Contact us to discuss the process for your specific project.
Can you work on OSU's historic campus buildings?
Yes, with the appropriate specialist coordination. Historic buildings on the OSU campus and other Columbus campuses may require restoration of architectural roofing elements — slate, copper, or clay tile — that are beyond standard commercial roofing scope. We work with historic roofing specialists for those elements and manage the full scope, including the OSU Historic Preservation Office review process when exterior modifications require their approval.
How do you schedule campus roofing around the academic calendar?
Summer — roughly May 15 to August 15 in the Columbus academic calendar — is the primary production window for campus roofing. We plan projects to use the full summer window and hold schedule against fall move-in dates. For buildings with year-round occupancy, we coordinate production schedules with the facilities team and avoid noise-intensive phases during final exams and other critical academic periods.
