The Fox Family


For over a half-century, the Ohio Roofing & Siding Co. has been solely owned and operated by the "Fox Family" offering service and superior workmanship to generations of customers in the Toledo and Northwest Ohio area.

Founding the company in 1931 during the peak of the Depression, Virl O. Fox (often called V.O.) and his sister Blanche Fox-Resner, began working out of a garage on Palmwood Avenue in Toledo. Moving to larger quarters on Dorr Street prior to World War II, they added siding to their roofing service as V.O.'s four children joined the firm.

In 1960, Virl Fox retired, leaving the second generation of Foxes to carry on the business and eventually relocate in 1966 to again a more expansive building on North Westwood Avenue, where the company has it's current modern showroom and office utilities.
In keeping with the tradition, five, third generation Foxes have joined the company, allowing for continued growth of the business to include replacement windows and doors, customized porch enclosures, awnings and most other improvements needed for a home's exterior. Their showroom contains a large display of products and services available to customers.
Ohio Roofing & Siding Co. has 45 fulltime employees and does not sub-contract any of its work, clearly pointing out that many workers have decades of experience and expertise and work along side their own family members.

"The Fox Family" continues to move the business well into the next century offering homeowners quality products and superior workmanship which has been the hallmark of their success.
