On the ground in Edwardsville
Why do so many Edwardsville roofs need replacing?
Edwardsville's housing splits between historic cores and newer subdivisions, so roofs age on very different clocks. Homes in the Leclaire and St. Louis Street historic districts date to the late 1800s and early 1900s, while the median Edwardsville house went up around 1984, putting a large share of roofs past their twenty-to-thirty-year life.
That range is why a working roofer matters here. The oldest homes, in the Leclaire district founded in 1890 and along St. Louis Street, carry steep and complex historic rooflines, while the east-side subdivisions off Governors Parkway and around Dunlap Lake are newer and now aging into their first replacement. Madison County Roofing has seen every roof age and pitch Edwardsville has, and matches the shingle and flashing to the house rather than selling one system to everyone.
