WHEN TO SCHEDULE AN INSPECTION
Signs Your Roof May Need Attention
Not every roofing problem is immediately noticeable. Recognizing early warning signs can help you address potential issues before they become more serious.
Missing or Damaged Shingles
Cracked, loose or missing shingles can leave your roof exposed to weather damage.
Water Stains and Leaks
Ceiling stains or moisture inside your property may indicate a roofing issue.
Damaged Flashing
Loose or deteriorating flashing around roof openings can create opportunities for water intrusion.
Storm-Related Damage
Hail, strong winds and heavy rain can cause visible or hidden roofing damage.
Aging Roofing Materials
Older roofing materials may show signs of deterioration and require professional attention.
Sagging Roof Areas
Uneven or sagging sections may indicate a structural concern that needs further assessment.

What Our Clients Are Saying
See what our customers have to say about their experience working with ECS Roofing & Construction.
Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Larry with ECS Roofing and Exteriors is absolutely incredible! In every sense of the word Lori! His attention to detail is off the charts! So friendly, professional, and explained everything in so much intricate detail so I knew everything going on. It wasnt just one area either yjat needed attention. He pointed out and fixed everything where there could even be a potential! Went not only up on the roof, but also into the attic to identify areas where leaks were taking place. He is my official go to guy for all things roofing as a consumer and as a realtor, will be who I refer out to any of my clients or other agents who ask for a good roofing / exterior maintenance referral! Cannot thank you enough Larry! Above and beyond sir!
I met Larry in 2024, he walked into my Agency in St Charles, MO and immediately I knew he was different than most other contractors. He was kind, respectful, experienced and most importantly knowledgeable in his field. He knows roofing (all things exterior really) but more importantly he knows how to work with insurance claims adjusters. As families navigate the challenges of extreme weather (hail & wind) this year and the impact it’s had to their homes, it’s been stressful. Between the financial stress of the homeowner AND working between the insurance company and the contractor… it’s been the hard on everyone. For most families this was their first Homeowners claim. Larry understands and is ready to put his knowledge and experience to the test each time he works with a family. He’s proven to be reliable and trustworthy. He is interested in quality workmanship and relationships rather than taking on more jobs than he can handle. I highly recommend you give Larry a shot to earn your business when you have any questions about the exterior of your home. As a State Farm agent of 27 years, he’s a rare find!
We are absolutely thrilled with our new roof from ECS Roofing. Larry was a pleasure to work with. He was open and honest throughout the whole process and helped guide us through dealing with the insurance company. His work crew is fast, the quality of the work stellar, and the cleanup afterward was excellent! Very highly recommended.
Larry was great communicator, show up at the same day, fixed the issue and I can't even express how impressed I was from the experience. Now I know who is my roofing guy going forward. Appreciate it!
Larry and his team were super prompt, professional and took care of our storm damage in short order, even in the bitter winter cold! Would definitely recommend and use them again!
Larry treated me really fairly and helped me out a lot last year. He fought hard for what was right and showed true integrity throughout the process. He kept in touch the whole time, always letting me know what was going on and what was best. He’s an honest guy running a great company, and I’m really thankful for everything he did for me! My roof ended up looking beautiful!!
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Inspections
Why are regular roof inspections important?
Regular roof inspections help identify small roofing problems before they turn into costly repairs. Over time, missing shingles, cracks, granule loss, and damaged flashing can affect your roof's condition. A proactive approach helps protect your house from leaks, moisture, and water damage while keeping your roof in good condition throughout the year.
How often should I schedule a professional roof inspection?
We recommend scheduling a professional roof inspection at least once a year, preferably in the spring or fall. You should also have your roof inspected after severe weather, heavy rain, or hail. Regular roof inspections help homeowners identify potential issues early and keep their roofs in top shape before storm season.
What does a comprehensive roof inspection include?
A comprehensive roof inspection involves a thorough assessment of your roof's surface, shingles, flashing, gutters, and other important areas. Our team carefully evaluates signs of storm damage, missing shingles, cracks, granule loss, poor ventilation, and moisture. We also check the attic and ceiling for water stains, leaks, and structural issues that could affect your property's structural integrity.
How can I tell if my roof needs an inspection?
There are several signs that your roof may need attention. Look for missing or damaged shingles, water stains on your ceiling, leaks in the attic, granule loss, and cracks around flashing. You should also consider roof inspection services if you notice moisture inside your house or suspect storm damage. Even when there are no visible signs, hidden problems may still exist.
Can a roof inspection identify storm or hail damage?
Yes! Professional roof inspections can identify storm damage caused by hail, strong winds, and heavy rain. Our team will inspect shingles, flashing, gutters, and your roof's surface for dents, cracks, missing materials, and other signs of damage. Identifying these roofing problems early helps reduce the risk of water damage and costly repairs.
Do professional roof inspection services use special technology?
Yes, depending on the property's needs, expert roof inspection services may use tools such as thermal imaging and drone technology. These tools can help inspect hard-to-reach areas and identify potential hidden problems, including moisture and temperature changes. Combined with a professional inspection, they allow us to provide a more detailed assessment of your roof's condition.
Will I receive a report after my roof inspection?
Yes! After the inspection, you can receive a written report outlining our findings. Our detailed reports explain the roof's condition, identify any structural issues or roofing problems, and highlight areas that may need repairs or replacement. We want homeowners to understand exactly what their roof needs so they can make informed decisions about protecting their property.
When should I consider roof repair or full roof replacement?
The right solution depends on your roof's age, overall condition, and the extent of the damage. Minor issues, such as missing shingles or damaged flashing, may only require repairs. However, widespread leaks, serious structural issues, or extensive storm damage may indicate that a full roof replacement is needed. Our roofing team will carefully evaluate your roof and recommend the right option for your property in St. Louis, MO, and the greater St. Louis area.
