St. Peters emergency roof repair, at a glance

When a storm opens up your roof at night, the first job is keeping more water out of the house. We tarp or temporarily seal the damaged area, then come back in daylight to make a proper repair. Call (314) 429-6000 and you will talk to a person, not a voicemail box.

What to do while you wait

A few simple steps can limit the damage before our crew arrives.

Move furniture, electronics and rugs away from the leak. Put a bucket or towels under drips. If water is pooling in a ceiling and the drywall is sagging, poke a small hole at the lowest point so it drains into a bucket instead of bringing the ceiling down. Stay off the roof, especially in the dark or while it is still storming.

Take photos of the inside damage and anything you can see from the ground outside, like missing shingles or a fallen limb. Those pictures help with an insurance claim later. Then call us. We will ask where the water is showing up and what the weather did, so the crew arrives with the right materials.

After the emergency

A tarp is temporary. Once the weather clears we go back up, look at the entire roof and tell you whether a repair will hold or whether storm damage is spread across enough slopes to justify a replacement through your insurance. If you file a claim, we meet the adjuster and walk them through the photos.

St. Peters emergency roof repair questions

Do you really answer the phone at night?
Yes. A person answers (314) 429-6000 around the clock, every day of the year.
How long does a tarp last?
A properly fastened tarp can protect the roof for several weeks, which gives time for the claim and the permanent repair.
Will insurance cover emergency tarping?
Many policies cover reasonable steps to prevent further damage. Keep the invoice and photos for your claim.
Should I get on the roof to look?
No. Wet or damaged roofs are dangerous, especially at night. Take photos from the ground and let us go up.
Do you do the permanent repair too?
Yes. After the emergency, we inspect the whole roof and give you a written price for the repair or replacement.
