Roofing contractor in St. Louis, MO

If you are looking for a roofer in St. Louis, the question worth asking is not who is cheapest — it is who will still be answering the phone in five years when a shingle lifts.

Storm damage and insurance

St. Louis sits in the older ring of St. Louis County, and the roofs here tell on themselves. Under the shingles we routinely find 1x6 plank decking, sometimes a second layer of shingles nobody disclosed, and original galvanized flashing at chimneys and dormers that has been patched with tar more than once. Spring hail lines and straight-line wind do the visible damage — what actually finishes these roofs is water tracking down a rusted counterflashing all winter. Our inspection report is written the way an adjuster reads one: slope by slope, soft metals included, with the hail date documented. You file the claim; we make sure the evidence is in it.

Overflowing or sagging gutters in St. Louis? Our gutter division covers that too — see gutters in St. Louis.

Signs your roof needs looking at

• Granules washing into gutters or piling at splash blocks — common on roofs past fifteen years
• Tar patches at chimney or dormer flashing, a sign the last repair was cosmetic
• Ceiling stains that show up several feet from the actual leak, typical over plank decking
• Moss or dark streaking on shaded north slopes under mature tree canopy
• Nail pops and lifted flashing from repeated freeze-thaw cycling
• A pre-war or 1950s home whose roof has never been professionally inspected

If it is an emergency right now

Call 314-429-6000 and a person answers — nights, weekends, holidays. On older St. Louis homes the leak is rarely directly above the ceiling stain, so for active water we tarp first and photograph the damage before the cover goes on, because once a roof is dried in the evidence for your claim is gone. Our crews run St. Louis County routes daily, so an emergency here is a dispatch, not a road trip.

• BBB Torch Award recognized — an award for ethics, not advertising

• Adjuster-ready documentation on every inspection, because metro claims are won on evidence
• 24/7 real answer at a local 314 number, not a national dispatch queue

Frequently asked questions

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Missouri has no statewide roofing license, so requirements are set by the city and county. Ask any St. Louis contractor for their city license and their certificate of insurance.

Will you tell me if I do not need a new roof?

Yes. We have been working this city since 1947 and the business runs on repeat customers. If a repair carries the roof, that is what the written report recommends.

Do you pull permits?

Yes. City of St. Louis permitting and inspections run through the city and we pull and schedule all of it. Historic district addresses carry extra review and we handle that too.

What warranty do you offer?

Lifetime workmanship warranty from us plus the manufacturer's shingle warranty. On city brick homes the failures are almost always at flashings, parapets and rear low-slope additions - all workmanship.
