St. Martins homeowners deal with the same weather every year: hail in spring, straight-line wind through summer, then ice working at the eaves all winter. We have crews local to St. Martins and a phone that gets answered at two in the morning.
Storm damage and insurance
St. Martins housing runs older and more solidly built than the newer subdivisions west of here — a lot of brick, a lot of 1950s through 1970s construction, and roofs with dormers, chimneys and sidewall transitions where the flashing matters more than the field shingle. Mid-Missouri hail and straight-line wind do the visible damage; the freeze-thaw cycle does the rest, working every nail pop and seam through the winter. Hail bruising sits in the mat rather than on the surface, so it does not read from the street. We inspect slope by slope, photograph the soft metals, and put the storm date on the report so the claim reads clearly to an adjuster.
Why people here call us back
- Lifetime workmanship warranty on every installation, standard
- BBB Torch Award recognized — an award for ethics, not advertising

- Family-owned since 1947 — not a crew that follows the storm and leaves
- Adjuster-ready documentation on every inspection, because Missouri claims are won on evidence
- 24/7 real answer at a local number, not a national dispatch queue

If it is an emergency right now
Call 573-343-8993 and a person answers — nights, weekends, holidays. On older St. Martins homes the water usually enters at a chimney, sidewall or dormer rather than out in the open field of the roof, and that is where we look first. For active water we tarp and photograph the damage before the cover goes on, because once a roof is dried in the evidence for your claim is gone.
