Webster Groves sees its share of severe spring and summer storms that drop hail ranging from pea-sized pellets to golf ball impacts. These storms strike quickly, often multiple times in a single season, and leave behind damage that compromises shingles, flashing, and underlayment across residential and commercial roofs throughout the community. The real trouble starts after the storm passes. Temperature changes in the days and weeks following a hailstorm cause shingles to contract and expand, which makes the initial impacts worse and opens up vulnerable spots where water can work its way under the roofing material. What begins as a few bruised shingles can turn into leaks that damage ceilings, insulation, and framing if you don't address the problem early.
Professional hail damage roof repair restores the protective barrier your property needs to withstand the weather conditions common to the St. Louis metro area. Total Roofing has served Webster Groves for years, and we understand how local storms affect different roofing materials and building types. Our repair process goes beyond replacing visible shingles. We inspect for hidden damage like compromised underlayment, bent flashing, and weakened seals around vents and chimneys. Catching these issues early protects your investment and prevents expensive structural work down the road.
Hail damage is not always visible from the ground, and not every impact justifies full replacement. Our process is designed to determine the actual condition of your roof and explain what action, if any, is necessary.
Hail impacts vary depending on the size of the stones and the roofing material they strike. Asphalt shingles lose protective granules, which exposes the underlayment to UV rays and moisture. The fiberglass mat underneath can fracture without showing visible cracks on the surface, and those hidden breaks allow water to leak in over time. Metal vents, gutters, and flashing often show dents that compromise their ability to channel water away from vulnerable seams. Temperature changes after a storm stress these weakened areas, causing small cracks to widen and bruises to turn into leaks.
Most hail repairs take 1 to 3 days once scheduled, depending on the extent of damage and roof size. Acting quickly reduces the risk of secondary damage from water or further bad weather.

You should contact a roofing contractor within a few weeks of a hailstorm, even if you don't see obvious damage from the ground. Hail impacts often create hidden problems like fractured shingle mats or loosened seals that won't show up as leaks right away. The sooner we identify these issues, the less chance you have of water working its way under your roofing material during the next heavy rain.
A properly executed repair using quality materials performs just as well as the surrounding undamaged sections of your roof, especially if the hail only affected specific areas. We match materials to your existing roof and secure each repaired section to maintain consistent protection. If the damage is scattered across large portions of your roof, we'll explain when a full replacement becomes the better long-term option instead of patching multiple problem spots.
Look for water stains on your ceilings, especially near vents, chimneys, and along exterior walls where flashing connects to the roof. Check your attic for signs of moisture or light coming through gaps that weren't there before the storm. These interior clues often reveal damage that isn't visible from outside and help us pinpoint problem areas during the inspection.
