Florissant Built a Generation of Homes. That Generation Is Ready for New Roofs.
Florissant is one of St. Louis County’s great post-war success stories. Through the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, the city grew rapidly — thousands of brick ranch homes, split-levels, and two-stories built for the families who were moving out of the city and into a new kind of suburban Missouri life.
Those homes are now between 50 and 75 years old. That’s not a problem — it’s an opportunity. Florissant’s housing stock is structurally sound and worth investing in. But the original roofing on many of these homes has been replaced once or twice already, and a significant portion of the current roofs in Florissant are approaching or past the end of their serviceable life. The original mortar joints on the brick are showing 60 years of Missouri winters. The gutters — often original builder installations from decades ago — are undersized, deteriorated, or both.
ECI has been the contractor Florissant homeowners call when that moment arrives. We understand Florissant’s housing stock because we’ve been working on it since 1994 — we know the typical construction of these homes, the common failure points, and the right solutions for each one.
What Florissant Homeowners Are Dealing With Right Now
Aging Roof Systems
The most common call ECI receives from Florissant homeowners is about roofing. Many of these homes are on their second or third roof — and when the current roof reaches end of life, a proper full tear-off and replacement is the right solution, not another layer-over. ECI performs complete roof replacements for Florissant properties, including full decking inspection, high-quality underlayment, and roofing systems designed to last through Missouri’s weather cycles.
Mortar Deterioration on Mid-Century Brick
Florissant’s brick homes were built with mortar joints that have now endured 50-70 years of Missouri freeze-thaw cycles. Deteriorating mortar is one of the most consistent maintenance needs across Florissant’s older neighborhoods. ECI’s tuckpointing team works throughout Florissant restoring mortar joints before water infiltration can damage interior walls and framing.
Undersized and Failing Gutter Systems
Many of Florissant’s original gutter installations were builder-grade — narrow, aluminum systems that were adequate when new but have long since deteriorated or been overwhelmed by Missouri’s heavy spring rainfall. ECI replaces failing gutter systems with properly sized seamless gutters and, where appropriate, gutter guard protection that reduces ongoing maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions — Florissant, MO
How do I know if my Florissant home needs a new roof?
If your current roof is more than 20 years old, or if you’re seeing missing or curling shingles, granule loss in your gutters, water staining on interior ceilings, or daylight through the attic, it’s time for an inspection. ECI provides free roof inspections for Florissant homeowners.
Should I replace or repair my Florissant roof?
It depends on the age and condition of the current roof. If the roof is under 15 years old and damage is limited, repair may be the right call. If the roof is older or damage is widespread, a full replacement is typically more cost-effective than ongoing repairs. ECI gives you an honest assessment of which approach makes sense for your specific situation.
How long does tuckpointing last on a Florissant brick home?
Quality tuckpointing with appropriate mortar typically lasts 25-30 years. Given the age of most Florissant homes, many are either due for their first tuckpointing or overdue for a second round.
Does ECI replace gutters in Florissant?
Yes. ECI installs seamless aluminum gutters properly sized for your home’s roofline and Missouri’s rainfall volumes — replacing the builder-grade systems common on Florissant’s older homes.
Does ECI offer free inspections in Florissant?
Yes. ECI provides complimentary exterior inspections and detailed estimates for Florissant homeowners at no charge.
