Tarping is temporary stabilization that stops active water intrusion until permanent repair is possible. Properly done, the tarp is anchored above the damage and extends over the ridge so water cannot run beneath it. Documented tarping also matters for insurance, since most policies require the insured to prevent further damage after a loss. Related: roof repair services and storm damage claims.
An open roof turns a one-trade claim into insulation, drywall, flooring and mold. Insurance policies also require you to prevent further damage after a loss — and emergency tarping is exactly that duty, which is why carriers routinely cover it. We photograph the damage before and after tarping so your claim file starts right.
A tarp thrown over the hole and bricked down blows off in the next front. Ours are sized past the damage on all sides, anchored with furring strips fastened into sound structure, and lapped so water sheds over — not under. Then our claim team takes the storm and tree damage claim from tarp to finished restoration.
We dispatch 24/7 and prioritize open-roof emergencies — call (330) 918-1018 any hour. After regional storms we run extended crews.
