St. Louis sits in a unique climate zone where we experience the full range of severe weather conditions throughout the year. Understanding how different weather patterns affect your roof helps you recognize when repairs are needed and why preventive maintenance is so important.
St. Louis averages 50+ severe thunderstorm days per year, with some storms producing winds exceeding 70 mph. These violent storms rip shingles off roofs, damage flashing, break branches that puncture roofing materials, and drive rain horizontally under roof edges.
Common damage: Missing shingles, lifted roof edges, broken seals, water intrusion
Missouri ranks among the top 10 states for hail damage. St. Louis area hailstorms can produce golf ball-sized hail that bruises asphalt shingles, knocks off protective granules, cracks shingles, and compromises the waterproof integrity of your entire roof system.
Common damage: Granule loss, shingle bruising, cracked shingles, dented metal components
St. Louis winters feature constant freeze-thaw fluctuations. Water gets under shingles, freezes overnight, expands, and forces shingles apart. This creates larger gaps for more water infiltration. Ice dams form when heat escapes through poorly insulated attics, melting snow that refreezes at roof edges.
Common damage: Ice dam formation, shingle lifting, water backup under shingles, interior leaks
St. Louis summers regularly hit 95-100°F with intense humidity. Roof surface temperatures can exceed 160°F. This extreme heat accelerates asphalt shingle aging, causes thermal expansion and contraction that loosens fasteners, dries out sealants, and makes shingles brittle and prone to cracking.
Common damage: Curled shingles, cracked shingles, dried-out sealants, accelerated aging
Most St. Louis homeowners have insurance coverage for storm damage, hail damage, and wind damage to their roofs. However, navigating the claims process can be confusing and frustrating.

We provide detailed damage documentation with photos, help you understand your policy coverage, meet with your insurance adjuster on-site, and ensure you receive fair compensation for necessary repairs.

Get answers to common questions St. Louis homeowners have about roof repairs, costs, and the repair process.
Roof repair costs in St. Louis vary widely depending on the extent of damage, materials needed, and accessibility. Minor repairs like replacing a few shingles typically cost $300-$800. More extensive repairs involving flashing replacement, multiple shingle replacements, or roof decking repair can range from $800-$2,500. Major storm damage repairs requiring substantial work may cost $2,500-$8,000 or more. We provide free inspections and detailed written estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. Many repairs are covered by homeowner's insurance, especially storm damage and hail damage.
This depends on several factors: your roof's age, the extent of damage, and the cost-effectiveness of repairs versus replacement. Generally, if your roof is less than 9 years old and damage is localized to a specific area, repair makes sense. If your roof is over 20 years old with widespread damage, multiple leaks, or extensive wear across the entire surface, replacement may be more cost-effective long-term.
We provide honest recommendations during our free inspection. If repairs will only buy you 2-3 more years before you need a full replacement anyway, we'll tell you upfront so you can make an informed decision.
Most homeowner's insurance policies cover roof damage caused by sudden events like storms, hail, wind, fallen trees, or fire. Damage from normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or gradual deterioration typically isn't covered. If your roof was damaged during a recent storm, there's a good chance your insurance will cover most or all of the repair costs after you pay your deductible.
We work with insurance companies regularly and can help document damage, provide detailed estimates, and communicate directly with your adjuster to ensure your claim is approved. Many St. Louis homeowners don't realize they have covered damage—we offer free inspections to determine if you should file a claim.
Most roof repairs in St. Louis can be completed in one day, often in just a few hours. Simple repairs like replacing missing shingles or resealing flashing might take 2-4 hours. More extensive repairs involving roof decking replacement or multiple problem areas might take a full day or occasionally two days. For emergency repairs, we can often have a crew at your home within hours to tarp and protect your roof, with permanent repairs scheduled shortly after. We always work efficiently to minimize disruption while ensuring quality workmanship.
Common warning signs include: water stains on ceilings or walls, missing or damaged shingles visible from the ground, granules from asphalt shingles collecting in gutters, daylight visible through roof boards in your attic, sagging areas on the roof surface, damaged or missing flashing around chimneys or vents, and increased energy bills due to poor insulation from roof damage.
After severe storms in St. Louis, always inspect your roof or have it professionally inspected even if you don't see obvious damage. Hail damage and wind damage may not be immediately visible but can compromise your roof's integrity and lead to leaks over time.
Yes! We provide 24/7 emergency roof repair services throughout the St. Louis area. If your roof is actively leaking, has been severely damaged by a storm, or has a tree branch through it, call us immediately at (314) 540-5552. We typically respond within 2 hours for emergency situations. Our emergency services include temporary tarping to prevent further water damage, emergency leak sealing, and damage assessment. We'll stabilize the situation immediately and schedule permanent repairs as quickly as possible.
Yes, most roof repairs can be completed year-round in St. Louis, including winter months. However, extremely cold temperatures (below 40°F) can make asphalt shingle installation challenging because shingles become brittle and sealants don't bond properly. For emergency repairs, we can make temporary fixes in any weather and schedule permanent repairs when temperatures rise. For non-emergency repairs during winter, we monitor weather forecasts and schedule work during milder days. Ice dam removal and leak repairs are commonly performed in winter when those problems are most prevalent.
Hail damage isn't always obvious from the ground. Common signs include: dents or dings on metal roof vents, gutters, or AC units; dark spots on shingles where granules have been knocked off; shingles with soft spots or bruises that you can feel when pressed; cracked or split shingles; and granules accumulating in gutters after a hailstorm.
After any significant hailstorm in St. Louis (especially if hailstones were larger than 1 inch), you should have your roof professionally inspected. Hail damage may not cause immediate leaks but compromises your roof's lifespan and is typically covered by insurance. We provide free hail damage inspections and can help you determine if you should file an insurance claim.
