Storm damage doesn’t wait, and neither should you. Call Top Quality Exteriors LLC any hour at (314) 618-8888 to lock in a same-day tarping crew for your University City home, and we’ll walk you through the insurance paperwork start to finish.
A thunderstorm just tore panels off your gable, and now bare sheathing is staring at the next weather front — that’s the call our team answers all night for emergency siding tarping in University City, MO. Homes near Forsyth Place, West Jackson Park, and the Parkview streets sit under a mature tree canopy that turns spring wind into a limb-strike hazard, so exposed wall openings don’t wait for a business day. Top Quality Exteriors keeps a 24/7 emergency response line staffed to stabilize your wall before water finds the studs.
Our crews arrive with heavy-mil poly, shrink wrap, ring-shank fasteners, and OSB blanks sized to cover missing panels along soffit, fascia, gable ends, and dormer walls — the wood elements that get torn off U City’s otherwise brick homes. We photograph every impact, tag panel numbers where paint codes are still legible, and hand you a documented package your adjuster can open the same day. Once the storm passes, the same crew rolls straight into storm damage siding repair in University City so you skip a second contractor.
University City logged 83 hail reports within 10 miles in 2024, with the largest strike measuring 2.25 inches — tennis-ball size — and interactive hail data recorded a fresh quarter-size event on 05/19/2025. Hail is only half the story, though. The tree canopy that gives Forsyth Place, Ames Place, and the University Heights blocks their character also drops heavy limbs during spring thunderstorm outflows, and those limbs slice through fiber-cement lap, vinyl, and pine soffit boards before they ever hit the shingles. When a panel goes, the wall behind it is exposed OSB or plank sheathing with felt or house wrap torn along the same edge, a direct path for wind-driven rain to reach insulation, drywall, and framing within hours. Our tarping crews stabilize that opening with reinforced poly, cap-nailed to sound framing, then dry-in with weather-lapped seams that shed water for weeks while the insurance track moves.

When your siding blows off, the clock starts. Our five-step emergency workflow moves a University City home from panicked phone call to fully stabilized and photographed inside a single visit, so water never gets the first shot at your studs.
You reach a real live dispatcher on our emergency line, not a voicemail loop. We log the address, damage type, and access notes. A crew heads to your U City block within an hour.
We walk the elevation, mark every missing or split panel, and flag any exposed sheathing edge. Storm debris gets moved off the drip line first. Then tarps and fasteners get staged.
Reinforced poly or shrink wrap goes over exposed sheathing first, lapped shingle-style. OSB blanks cover panel voids on gable or dormer. Cap nails hold framing so wind can’t peel.
Broken window frames, punched openings, and torn soffit vents get closed with plywood. We seal every seam with peel-and-stick tape to keep the wall dry. Nothing gets left open.
Before and after photos, panel counts, and damage maps go into a single PDF for your adjuster. We note manufacturer, color code, and profile where legible. The file is claim-ready.
Working in U City means working around private-trustee boards in Parkview, University Heights, and Ames Place, plus the Historic Preservation Commission’s 45-day review radius around Delmar Loop landmarks. We register annually with the City of University City as required, pull permits through the Planning and Zoning office at City Hall, and coordinate with subdivision trustees on material and color decisions before we ever quote a permanent siding repair.
Top Quality Exteriors LLC was founded in 2022 with over 7 years of industry experience on the team, and we hold BBB Accreditation with an A+ rating, licenses in Missouri and Illinois, general liability insurance, and workers’ compensation coverage. As an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and a James Hardie Alliance Program Member, we can sequence emergency stabilization straight into a manufacturer-backed permanent repair when your panels warrant it.
Emergency siding tarping in University City is priced by wall square footage covered, height above grade, tarp material used, and time of dispatch on the storm event. A single-story gable-end wrap on a Cape Cod north of Olive Boulevard runs at the low end of our scale, while a two-story dormer stabilization on a Shingle Style home near the Delmar Loop costs more because of ladder work, staging, and extra sheathing area to secure against wind-driven rain.
Most emergency stabilization is covered by a homeowners policy under wind or storm loss, so we itemize the tarping invoice line-by-line for your adjuster and apply the amount against the deductible on the permanent repair once we win the follow-on job, which often runs alongside our siding repair in University City. Every job carries our 36-Month workmanship warranty as the baseline, with extended coverage up to Lifetime available on selected products.
Every credential we carry is a commitment to quality, safety, and your peace of mind — on every project, in every state we serve.
