What we see on St. Peters homes
St. Peters's median house dates from 1988, which puts most of the town in the build-out between 1970 and 1990. 24,871 housing units, 80.9% of the occupied ones owner-occupied. That is a high share, and it means most of these conversations are with the person who will live with the result rather than with somebody signing off on a property they never see. 11.4% has been built since 2010, so a good share of these roofs are still on their first shingle, where how well the flashing and venting were done matters more than wear.
Houses from the seventies and eighties mean trussed roofs, plywood or OSB decking, and a first or second replacement already behind them. Those are straightforward tear-offs. What we look hardest at is the ventilation, because attics from that era went up before anyone was fussy about intake, and a roof with no soffit intake cooks its own shingles from underneath whatever you put on top.

What the winters do here
The 1991-2020 snowfall normal at St. Louis Lambert International Airport, about 12 miles away, is 16.6 inches a year. That is why the ice-and-water shield at the eaves goes on every roof we do rather than only the ones that ask for it.

Permits and paperwork in St. Peters
Permits for work like this in St. Peters come from City of St. Peters Building Department. You will know at the consultation whether yours needs one, which is the point at which it is still useful to know. We pull the permit and we meet the inspector.
We are licensed and insured. Missouri has no statewide roofing license, because roofing is licensed city by city here, so an Illinois license number would carry no weight on this side of the river and we do not quote one at you. Ask for the certificate and you will have it.
Where we work from, and what is nearby
St. Peters, MO sits in St. Charles County, and we serve it from our Greater St. Louis office at 2424 Hwy 94 S. Outer Rd., St. Charles, MO 63303.
In St. Peters that covers 63376. A ZIP missing from that list is worth a phone call rather than an assumption, and you will get a yes or a no on the spot.
What we can put on a St. Peters house
IKO Dynasty for the wind rating and the color blends, IKO Nordic when Class 4 impact is worth having. The shingles are mold, mildew and algae resistant. We carry CertainTeed and GAF as well, so if a subdivision covenant names a product we are not locked out of it. Most roofs get a full tear-off, with ice-and-water shield, synthetic underlayment, new flashing and new drip edge. We never reuse drip edge. Where the deck and the existing layer allow it, an overlay is an option, and we will tell you honestly which one your roof is a candidate for.
There is a showroom at 2424 Hwy 94 S. Outer Rd., St. Charles, MO 63303, with full-size units rather than swatches. Daylight changes a color more than most people expect it to.
