Every page on this site
A short guide to what each page here answers, so you can read the one you need instead of the whole site.
Everything published on Best Roofers STL, newest first. This site covers St. Louis and the greater St. Louis area, and every page on it is written to be useful on its own rather than to lead somewhere. Keys Roofing is the contractor behind it and the phone number on every page reaches the Keys office directly.
A homeowner reading any one of these is usually part way through a decision and short of one specific fact. The list below says what each page answers, so you can go to the one you need instead of reading the site.

Nothing on this site is advice about an insurance claim. Under RSMo 407.725 a roofing contractor in Missouri may not represent or negotiate a homeowner's claim, and may not offer anything about a deductible. What Keys does is document the damage, put a written scope with photographs and measurements in your hands, and attend as the contractor. You deal with your own insurer.
Ask for the scope before you ask for the price
A document that names the underlayment, the flashing detail, the ventilation and the decking unit price can be laid beside another one and compared. A headline number on its own cannot.
Keys writes that document with photographs and measurements, and it is yours to keep whether or not the work goes to us. You are welcome to hand it to two other companies and ask them to price the same roof.
Straight through to the Keys Roofing office. Roofing, gutters and downspouts across greater St. Louis, and nothing else.
This goes to Keys Roofing, the company at number one. None of the other companies named on this site receive anything you type here.
