We understand the importance of a strong, durable roof and the peace of mind it brings to homeowners and businesses alike.
When it comes to maintaining or restoring your roof, choosing the right contractor is crucial. In this post, I will share insights into efficient and durable roof repair services, explain the factors influencing repair costs, and offer practical advice to help you protect your investment.
Understanding Effective Roof Damage Repair
Effective roof damage repair is more than just patching up holes or replacing missing shingles. It requires a thorough assessment of the roof’s condition, identifying the root cause of the damage, and applying the right materials and techniques to ensure long-lasting results.
At Solomon Contracting, we start every project with a detailed inspection. This allows us to spot issues such as:
Leaks and water damage: Often caused by cracked or missing shingles, damaged flashing, or clogged gutters.
Structural damage: Including sagging or weakened decking that may compromise the roof’s integrity.
Weather-related wear: Hail, wind, and storms can cause granule loss, cracks, or punctures.
Aging materials: Over time, roofing materials deteriorate and lose their protective qualities.
By addressing these problems comprehensively, we prevent minor issues from escalating into costly repairs or full roof replacements.
Why Choose Durable Materials?
Durability is key to effective roof damage repair. We use high-quality materials designed to withstand the local climate in St. Louis and surrounding areas. For example:
Asphalt shingles: Popular for their affordability and durability, especially architectural shingles that offer enhanced wind resistance.
Metal roofing: Known for longevity and resistance to extreme weather.
Rubber and synthetic membranes: Ideal for flat or low-slope commercial roofs.
Selecting the right material depends on your building type, budget, and aesthetic preferences. Our team guides you through these choices to ensure your roof performs well for years to come.
The Importance of Professional Roof Repair Services
When your roof sustains damage, quick and professional intervention is essential. Delaying repairs can lead to water infiltration, mold growth, and structural issues that compromise safety and increase costs.
We offer comprehensive roof repair services that include:
Emergency tarping and board-up to protect your property immediately after storm damage.
Shingle replacement and patching.
Flashing repair and replacement.

How Much Does It Roughly Cost to Fix a Roof?
Understanding the cost of roof repair is important for budgeting and decision-making. While prices vary depending on the extent of damage, materials, and labor, here are some general guidelines:
Minor repairs (e.g., replacing a few shingles or fixing small leaks): Typically range from $300 to $1,000.
Moderate repairs (e.g., patching larger areas, repairing flashing, or fixing gutters): Usually between $1,000 and $3,000.
Major repairs or partial roof replacement: Can cost $3,000 to $10,000 or more depending on roof size and materials.
Factors influencing cost include:
Roof size and pitch: Larger or steeper roofs require more materials and labor.
Material type: Premium materials like metal or slate cost more than asphalt shingles.
Extent of damage: Hidden damage to decking or insulation increases repair complexity.
Accessibility: Roofs with difficult access or safety concerns may incur higher labor costs.
We provide free, no-obligation estimates to help you understand your options and make informed decisions.
Tips for Maintaining Your Roof’s Longevity
Preventive maintenance is the best way to avoid costly repairs and extend your roof’s lifespan. Here are some practical tips:
Regular inspections: Schedule professional roof inspections at least once a year and after major storms.
Clean gutters and downspouts: Ensure water flows away from your roof and foundation.
Trim overhanging branches: Prevent damage from falling limbs and reduce debris accumulation.
Address minor issues promptly: Fix small leaks or damaged shingles before they worsen.
Ventilation and insulation: Proper attic ventilation and insulation help prevent ice dams and reduce heat buildup.
By following these steps, you protect your investment and maintain a safe, comfortable building.
