Creve Coeur roof repair, at a glance
Most of the repair calls we take in Creve Coeur come from three or four spots on the roof: pipe boots, the flashing around chimneys and skylights, and shingles near big trees. A repair at one of those spots often adds years to a roof that is otherwise sound. Call (314) 429-6000, answered 24 hours a day.
Repairs we make most often here
Creve Coeur's tree canopy is a big part of why people live here. It is also hard on roofs.
Large oaks and maples drop limbs in storms and fill valleys and gutters with leaves every fall. Wet debris sitting in a valley holds water against the shingles and lets it back up under them. Branches rubbing on a roof in the wind can wear through the granules in a single season. We clear what is causing the damage, replace the shingles that are worn or cracked, and tell you which limbs should come back from the house.
Rubber pipe boots around plumbing vents are another frequent cause. The rubber cracks after a number of summers in the sun, and water runs straight down the pipe into a bathroom ceiling. Replacing a boot is a quick job. We also reseal skylight curbs and rebuild chimney flashing on the 1960s and 1970s two-story homes that make up much of the city.
Common Creve Coeur roof repairs
Repairs are done by our own crew, matched as closely as possible to your existing shingles.
Pipe boot replacement
Cracked rubber collars swapped for new boots so vent pipes stop leaking into bathrooms.
Wind-lifted shingles
Shingles that lost their seal re-secured or replaced before they blow off.
Chimney flashing
Step and counter flashing rebuilt where caulk and tar used to be.
Skylight leaks
Curb flashing redone, or the skylight replaced if the unit itself has failed.
Soft decking
Rotten sheathing cut out and replaced under the repaired area.
Emergency leaks
Tarp or temporary seal the same night, permanent repair once it is dry.

When repair is not the answer
We would rather fix a roof than sell you one. That said, if the shingles are brittle, curling at the edges and shedding granules into the gutters across every slope, patching one area will only move the leak somewhere else. In that case we will give you a repair price and a replacement price side by side so you can decide.
