University City Roofing Contractor, at a glance
The housing here is 1910s to 1930s brick two-stories and four-families with steep pitches and rear porches, so the failures we find most are flat porch roofs bleeding into the main field. Call (314) 429-6000 - someone answers 24 hours a day.
What we find on University City roofs

Insurance work, handled properly
Most University City storm claims turn on documentation. Ours are photographed slope by slope with test squares marked, because "the roof looks fine" from a driveway is not a finding.
We'll tell you honestly whether you have a claim. Sometimes you don't, and filing a losing claim helps nobody. When you do, we write the scope, meet the adjuster, and push supplements for anything the first pass missed.
University City roofing questions
What shingles do you install?
Architectural laminate shingle as the standard. We're an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, which lets us offer their upper-tier system warranties. Impact-rated options are worth pricing where hail history justifies it.
What kind of warranty comes with the work?
A lifetime workmanship warranty from us, plus the manufacturer's material warranty. Two different things, and we'll explain which covers what before you sign anything.
Do you do gutters in University City too?
Seamless aluminum, formed on site, five and six inch. Doing gutters at the same time as the roof is cheaper than doing them separately, and it's the only way to get the drip edge and gutter apron detail right.
Are you licensed and insured?
Licensed, insured and bonded, with certificates we'll send before the crew shows up. Ask any contractor for those. The ones who hesitate are telling you something.
Do you actually work in University City, or just claim to?
We work University City every week. Crews run out of Maryland Heights and we've covered Central St. Louis County since 1947. Ask us for addresses in 63130 and we'll give you some.
