As summer winds down in the Greater St. Louis area, many homeowners overlook the subtle damage that heat, storms, and debris may have caused. Even minor wear can escalate into leaks, mold, or structural issues if left unchecked.
Shingles can crack, curl, or lose granules from prolonged sun exposure. Flashing around chimneys, skylights, and vents may also loosen. A thorough inspection identifies these issues early.
Bade Tip: Look for missing granules in gutters and on the ground near your home—these are early warning signs of shingle wear.
Water stains on ceilings or walls, musty odors, and damp spots in the attic are signs your roof may be compromised. Catching leaks early can prevent extensive damage.
Debris can trap moisture and encourage rot. Ensure your gutters are clear and remove leaves and branches from roof surfaces.

You take care of your family, your home, and the neighborhood you’re proud to live in. A solid roof is part of that, even if it’s not something you want to think about every day. Most homeowners are focused on staying ahead of problems, making smart decisions, and protecting what they’ve worked hard to build. When something feels off, a stain on the ceiling, a shingle out of place, a leak that shows up at the worst time, you just want straight answers and a clear plan.
For more than 70 years, Bade Roofing has been trusted across the St. Louis region and surrounding Illinois communities to handle complex commercial projects, hospitals, and local landmarks where performance, safety, and accountability matter. Those buildings have zero room for shortcuts. The roof has to work. The documentation has to be right. The crews have to show up ready.
That same level of expertise, planning, and attention to detail is now fully available for homeowners throughout the region. Bade Roofing is also still what it has always been at its core, a family company. Three generations have carried the work forward, and today the company is led by Matt Bade, the owner and CEO. That matters because the name on the trucks is the same name behind the work, and the reputation is personal. You can feel it in how the team communicates, how clean the job site stays, and how problems get handled when weather turns or surprises show up.
