If your University City home is due for a new roof or you spotted damage after the last storm, get us on the phone. A free inspection, a straight scope, and a written 36-Month workmanship warranty come standard on every residential job.
Owning a home south of Delmar or up on West Jackson Park means your roof has to survive a hail corridor that logged 83 reports within 10 miles of University City in 2024, with the largest stone at 2.25 inches. Top Quality Exteriors handles residential roofing in University City, MO on the cut-up Shingle Style rooflines that define Parkview, University Heights, and Ames Place, plus the simpler ranch and Cape Cod gables north of Olive. We treat every reroof like the homeowner is watching from the porch, because usually they are.
Our crews respect the Historic Preservation Commission’s 45-day review window and the private trustee rules in Parkview and University Heights, so material and color approvals are cleared before the first shingle is pulled from your roof. When a roof inspection in University City confirms hail bruising, wind lift, or a flashing failure, we scope full tear-off, decking checks, ice and water shield at the eaves, and fresh step-flashing at every brick chimney. Every job closes with a walk-through and a firm 36-Month workmanship warranty you can hand to the next owner.
University City is really two roofing markets on one map. South of Delmar, most homes were framed between 1900 and 1930 with steep pitches, cut-up valleys, dormers, and turrets that make tear-off labor heavy and flashing detail the whole ballgame. Original slate, slate-look composition, and copper accents on the highest-end Parkview and University Heights houses call for careful staging, hand-cut valleys, and step-flashing woven into aging brick. North of Olive, the inner-ring ranches and Cape Cods from the late 1940s and 1960s carry simpler gable roofs that are textbook architectural-asphalt candidates. We spec the right system for each half: 30-year architectural shingles with ridge vents on the north side, and repair-forward slate or premium designer shingles paired with fresh underlayment and ice and water shield on the south side. When storm hail rolls through the mature canopy on Forsyth or West Jackson Park, our roof replacement in University City workflow keeps the pull, dry-in, and reload on the same day when weather allows.
We keep the process boring on paper and tight on the roof. Every University City reroof follows the same five steps, so you know exactly what our crew is doing on your deck, when it happens, and how each stage lands with a written sign-off.
We climb your roof, walk every valley, and photograph the flashing joints. You get a written report the same afternoon, not a canned sales pitch. It is honest and no obligation.
I build a line-item scope tied to your inspection photos and decking notes. You see the shingle color, underlayment brand, and vents up front. No fake urgency, no bait pricing.
We pull the reroof permit through U City Planning and Zoning at City Hall. If HPC or a private trustee needs sign-off, we file it. You will not chase paperwork on your own time.
Crews strip the old system, inspect decking, and dry-in with underlayment. Ice and water shield covers eaves and valleys before the new shingles go on. Same day when weather holds.
We magnet-sweep your yard, flush the gutters, and haul every scrap off the site. Then we walk the roof with you, hand over the full photo file, and register your 36-Month warranty.
Top Quality Exteriors was founded in 2022 and brings over 7 years of industry experience to every University City reroof. We are an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating, and we are properly licensed in Missouri and Illinois. Our crews carry general liability and workers compensation insurance on every job site, so nothing that happens on your roof, in your yard, or on your driveway ever quietly lands on you.
Our 52-plus team members live and work across the metro, and we treat historic-district homes with the same care as new construction on a north-side lot. You get a project manager who returns calls, an on-site foreman who answers questions, and a phone number that reaches a real person after hours: (314) 618-8888. That is how residential roofing in University City, MO should feel from the free inspection all the way through the final walkthrough.
A residential reroof in University City typically runs between the mid-teens and the low-thirties in thousands, depending on square footage, pitch, valley count, and the shingle line you choose. A 2,000-square-foot ranch on the north side with a simple gable is not priced the same as a Shingle Style home in Parkview with four dormers, three valleys, and original copper flashing to replace at the chimneys. We price each roof from the deck up, tape measure in hand.
Every quote itemizes tear-off, decking repair rate per sheet, underlayment, ice and water shield, drip edge, ridge vents, and your final shingle selection. Most north-side homes land on architectural asphalt shingle roofing in University City. Financing through Hearth or GreenSky spreads it on a comfortable schedule for qualifying homeowners, and on higher-tier systems we can extend workmanship coverage up to Lifetime, past the 36-Month baseline every job includes.
Every credential we carry is a commitment to quality, safety, and your peace of mind — on every project, in every state we serve.
