We cover the City of St. Louis commercial property, including the Washington Avenue and Broadway corridors. The commercial stock here runs to historic multi-story masonry buildings and early high-rise commercial stock, much of it from the 1890s through the 1930s, a great deal of it converted to loft and mixed use, and we work all of it.
Century-old masonry changes the roofing problem. The deck, the parapets and the drainage were designed for a different era, and the honest answer is often that the wall detail is failing rather than the field of the roof.

- Parapet, coping and through-wall flashing on historic masonry
