Glendale Roofing, at a glance

Most Glendale roof problems we see start with the trees: branches that rub shingles thin, leaf debris that holds water in the valleys, and gutters packed tight by November. If you have a leak or a question, call (314) 429-6000. A person answers the phone at any hour, and we have run this as a family business since 1947.

What Glendale roofs go through

Much of Glendale's housing went up in the first half of the last century, and plenty of those houses have been added onto since. That leaves a lot of roofs with more than one pitch, a dormer or two, and a tie-in where the addition meets the original house. Those tie-ins are where we find leaks more often than anywhere else on the roof.

Shade is the other factor. A roof that never gets full sun dries slowly after rain. Moss and algae get a foothold on the north slopes, and granules wear off faster where branches touch the surface. None of that means the roof is finished, but it does mean an inspection should cover more than a glance from the driveway.

Roofing work we do in Glendale

Every job starts with the same free inspection and a written estimate.

Roof repair

Lifted shingles, cracked pipe boots, flashing that has pulled away from a chimney or wall. If the roof has years left, we fix the part that failed.

Roof replacement

Tear-off down to the deck, new decking where the old boards are soft, then underlayment, ventilation and shingles. We are an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor.

Storm and hail damage

Photos of every slope, a written scope, and someone from our team on the roof when the adjuster comes out.

24/7 emergency service

A limb through the roof at night calls for a phone call, not a web form. We tarp and dry it in, then schedule the repair.

Seamless gutters

Gutters sized for the water a Glendale roof sheds, with downspouts that carry it away from the foundation.

Roof inspections

Free and photographed. Useful before you list a house, after a storm, or when you just want to know where you stand.

How a Glendale job usually goes

  1. Call or fill out the form

    Tell us the address and what you have noticed. If water is coming in, call instead of using the form.

  2. Free inspection

    We walk the roof, check the attic if you allow it, and photograph what we find. You don't need to be home for the outside portion.

  3. Written estimate

    You get a plain recommendation. Sometimes that is a repair, sometimes a replacement, and sometimes it is to leave the roof alone for a few more years.

  4. Work day

    Most Glendale houses are torn off and roofed in a single day. We protect the landscaping, sweep for nails with magnets, and walk the finished roof with you.

Glendale Roofing questions

Do I need to cut back my trees before a new roof?
Not always. We point out limbs that touch the roof or hang low over it, and you decide whether to have them trimmed. A tree service should do the cutting, and we work around whatever is left.
How can I tell if my Glendale roof has storm damage?
Usually you can't from the ground. Hail bruises and wind-creased shingles show up at close range. The inspection is free, and we show you photos either way.
Will you help with my insurance claim?
Yes. We document the damage, write the scope and meet the adjuster at the house. You stay in charge of the claim.
What warranty comes with a new roof?
Every roof we install carries our lifetime workmanship warranty, along with the manufacturer's product warranty on the materials.
Can I reach someone on a weekend?
Yes. A person answers our phone 24 hours a day, every day of the week, holidays included.
