How it works, step by step
- Call and describe what is happening. Active drips, storm openings and trees on the roof are treated as emergencies.
- Temporary protection comes first, usually a properly fixed tarp or a temporary patch, once the roof is safe to be on.
- When everything is dry, the temporary work is replaced by a permanent repair or a replacement plan, priced in writing.
What to do while you wait for emergency help
Move belongings out from under the drip, put containers under it, and if a ceiling bulges with water, a small hole in the lowest point drains it in a controlled way instead of letting it spread. Do not go on the roof yourself. The full checklist is in roof leaking, what to do right now.

Frequently asked questions
Do you offer 24/7 service?
Availability is configured by the business: Call us about an urgent roof problem and we will tell you what is currently available.
Is emergency work temporary?
Often yes; permanent repair follows once conditions allow.
Should I climb up and tarp the roof myself?
No. A wet roof is one of the easiest places to fall from. Move belongings, catch the water, and let someone with the right gear do the tarping.
Is a tarp a real repair?
A tarp is protection, not a repair. Fixed properly it keeps water out for weeks, but the permanent fix still has to follow.
What counts as an emergency versus an urgent repair?
Water actively entering, openings in the roof and structural damage are emergencies. A stain that is no longer growing is urgent and can be booked normally.
Should I call my insurer or a roofer first after storm damage?
Make the home safe and dry first, document everything, then notify the insurer with the roofer findings in hand.
