Ladue Roofing Contractor, at a glance
The housing here is estate homes with slate, tile, cedar and copper, many original to the 1920s through 1950s, so the failures we find most are genuine slate and tile restoration. Call (314) 429-6000 - someone answers 24 hours a day.
What actually goes wrong on roofs here
Old-growth trees over irreplaceable roofing materials, so wind and hail claims here are common enough that we keep a claims person on staff rather than farming it out.

What Ladue roofs demand
The housing stock here is older, larger and considerably more complex than the regional average, and the roofs are specified accordingly.
Complex rooflines are the defining feature. Multiple intersecting planes, deep valleys, turrets and bays, dormers, and long runs of roof-to-wall transition. The consequence is that these roofs have far more linear feet of flashing per square of field than a typical suburban home, and flashing is where roofs leak. Estimating one off an aerial measurement misses most of what the job actually is.
Slate, tile and cedar are genuinely present here, not a marketing mention. Each is a separate trade with its own fastening, its own walkability and its own failure pattern, and the fastest way to ruin a slate roof is to let someone accustomed only to asphalt walk it. Knowing what is actually up there comes before anyone quotes.
Copper shows up in the valleys, on bays and in built-in gutter systems on the older houses. Built-in or box gutters integrated into the roof structure are a specialty item: when they fail they deliver water directly into the wall assembly rather than down the outside of the house, and the interior damage is well underway before anything is visible.
Mature canopy is constant here and it works against roofs in three ways at once. Limb abrasion on the slopes, heavy organic debris loading valleys and gutters, and enough shade to keep north-facing planes damp long enough to hold moss and algae.
Appearance standards are real on these properties, so material and color matching carry weight beyond personal preference. Where a roof is only partly being replaced, matching the existing across a visible elevation is often the constraint the entire scope has to work around.
