A roof can take a real hit and still look fine from the driveway, so if no one has looked at yours up close since then, a free roof inspection is the easy way to know. If there is damage, our storm and hail damage page explains what happens next.
How we counted: each number is a NOAA-logged hail report, not a separate storm, because one storm commonly produces several reports. We counted every Missouri report NOAA placed within 5 miles of the center of Clayton. The county-wide ranking is in St. Louis Hail by County: The NOAA Numbers.
Roofing Permits in Clayton
Clayton is its own municipality in St. Louis County, a county with close to ninety of them, and the permit and inspection rules for a roof are set locally. A mailing address does not always match a city line, so the first thing we confirm is which jurisdiction your house is actually in and what it requires. Then we file the permit where one is needed and close it out. You should never be asked to pull a roofing permit yourself. More in roofing permits in the St. Louis area.
How a Keys Roofing Job in Clayton Works
- Free inspection. We walk the roof ridge to gutter and photograph it section by section, then go through the photos with you before we talk about scope or price. If the roof does not need work, we say so.
- A clear scope. Repair or replacement, and why, with the photos to show it. After a storm, we handle the insurance paperwork and adjuster coordination, and the claim stays yours.
- Materials and paperwork. Atlas or Malarkey shingles, chosen with you, plus warranty management, scheduling, permits and inspections.
- The work. Kaleb, who owns Keys Roofing, is on job sites personally, inspecting, documenting and standing behind the crew's work.
