Emergency Roof Repair in Maryland Heights, MO, at a glance
Our headquarters is in Maryland Heights, so this is the shortest emergency run we make anywhere in the metro. Trucks, tarp material and ladders are all staged at 12181 Prichard Farm Rd. Call (314) 429-6000 at any hour and a person answers.
What happens when you call at 2 a.m.
A person answers. Not a voicemail box, not an answering service that takes a message for the morning. They get your address, what you are seeing and whether water is actively coming in, and they put it in front of the on-call crew.
The first visit is about stopping damage, not finishing a roof. We cover the opening, redirect water away from the ceiling where we can, and leave you dry until conditions allow a proper repair. Then we come back in daylight and fix it correctly rather than leaving a tarp up for a month.

What to do before we get there
A few minutes of the right action keeps a roof problem from becoming a drywall and flooring problem.
Move what you can out from under the leak and put a container down. If the ceiling is holding a bulge of water, puncture it deliberately over a bucket. A controlled hole drains it; a saturated ceiling that lets go on its own takes the whole section with it.
Photograph everything before you clean up, including the ceiling, the floor and anything damaged. Then stay off the roof. More people are hurt going up in the rain to look than are ever hurt by waiting for a crew that is already on the way.
What counts as a roofing emergency
If any of these is happening, call rather than filling out a form.
- Water actively dripping or running into a living space
- Visible daylight through the roof deck from inside the attic
- A tree limb or debris resting on or through the roof
- Shingles or decking torn off during a storm, leaving the underlayment exposed
- A ceiling that is sagging, bulging or discoloring while you watch it
- Wind-driven rain entering around a chimney, skylight or sidewall
Maryland Heights emergency roofing questions
Do you really answer overnight?
Yes, with a person. That is the whole reason to keep an emergency line, and it is the promise we have kept the longest.
What does emergency tarping cost?
It depends on the size and the access, and we tell you before we do it. Where a claim is involved, tarping is typically covered as mitigation.
Will a tarp hold until the repair?
Ours are fastened and sealed rather than weighted, so yes for a reasonable period. We still schedule the permanent repair immediately instead of letting it sit.
Can you handle the insurance side too?
We document the damage, write the scope and meet the adjuster on the roof. You are not left explaining roofing to a carrier by yourself.
