The Quarry on the Scioto: Dublin's Hidden Cedar Shake Enclave
Tucked along the banks of the Scioto River in a reclaimed stone quarry, The Quarry on the Scioto is one of Dublin's most distinctive residential communities. This gated enclave of approximately 35 homes was built in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and its natural setting — steep quarry walls, mature hardwoods, and river frontage — gives it a character unlike anything else in Central Ohio. Home values here range from $750,000 to nearly $900,000, and the community maintains its exclusivity through a gated entrance, HOA-managed security, and strict architectural standards.
Wood shake roofing is the aesthetic norm in The Quarry. The natural cedar shakes complement the community's organic, wooded character — blending the rooflines into the surrounding canopy of oaks, maples, and river birch. But that same canopy creates the conditions that make cedar shake maintenance essential. The Scioto River's proximity adds moisture to an already humid microclimate, and the quarry's sheltered topography limits airflow across rooftops. The result: accelerated moss, algae, and lichen growth on every shake surface.
Why Forza Dominates The Quarry
Forza Roof Cleaning serves 13 of the approximately 35 homes in The Quarry on the Scioto — over a third of the entire community. When your neighbors trust us with their roofs, it's not a coincidence. It's because we understand the unique conditions here: the river moisture, the quarry microclimate, the cedar shake requirements, and the privacy expectations of residents in a gated community. We don't pressure wash. We don't damage cedar fibers. And we don't discuss our clients' properties publicly.
The Quarry sits just one mile from Dublin's Bridge Park district and minutes from I-270 and SR-315, yet it feels worlds away. The cul-de-sac layout, half-acre lots, and natural stone features create a resort-like atmosphere that residents fiercely protect. That protection extends to the roofs — and to the companies allowed through the gate to work on them.
