H&F Cares
At H&F Exteriors, We Believe That Strong Communities Create Better Lives for Everyone
Our incredible customers from across the St. Louis Metro East have allowed us the opportunity to grow our business in ways we never imagined. When they trust us to improve the homes they love through our remodeling, roofing, and siding services, it helps increase the prosperity of their entire neighborhood. But we aren’t satisfied with one home or neighborhood alone – we want to help everyone in our communities live their healthiest, happiest life possible.
At H&F Exteriors, it’s our honor to give back. As such, we regularly partner with food banks, school supply drives, children’s organizations, and other charities by volunteering our time or making financial contributions to support their missions. We’re also happy to use our social media presence to spread the word about the amazing nonprofits in our St. Louis region.
Part of our passion for roofing and home restoration comes from the belief that home is a sacred space where every family member feels comfortable, protected, and loved. This is why we regularly partner with charities that are dedicated to creating safe environments for those who have been denied that basic kindness.

At H&F Exteriors, we truly love giving back to our community. With that in mind, we decided to donate our Holiday Party "Casino Night" proceeds to Friends of ECM. This organization makes sure that the Edwardsville Children's Museum access is made available to foster children and families receiving SNAP benefits, because every child should have a chance to learn, explore, and play.
None of this would be possible without our team. Thanks to their donations, we were able to give $2,010 to Friends of ECM. We’re incredibly proud of this group and the culture we build together every day.
