What does emergency roof tarping do?
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.
Every Hour Of Rain Costs You
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 That Survives The Week
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.

How fast can you get here?
We dispatch 24/7 and prioritize open-roof emergencies — call (330) 918-1018 any hour. After regional storms we run extended crews.
Does insurance pay for emergency tarping?
Usually yes — policies require you to mitigate further damage, and reasonable tarping costs are routinely covered as part of the claim. Keep the invoice; we document everything.
How long will the tarp last?
Properly anchored, weeks to a few months — long enough for the claim and permanent repair. It’s a bridge, not a roof; we’ll have the real fix moving immediately.
A tree is on my house — what do I do right now?
Get everyone out from under the damaged area, call us, and don’t climb up. We coordinate tree removal where needed, tarp the roof, and start the claim the same day.
How long can a roof tarp stay on?
Properly installed tarps serve for weeks to months — but they’re a bridge, not a roof. The permanent repair schedules while the tarp holds.
Will insurance pay for emergency tarping?
Typically yes — mitigation is your policy duty and a covered cost. Keep the invoice; it belongs in the claim.
Can you tarp a roof in the rain?
Storm conditions permitting crew safety, yes — that’s what emergency response means. Active weather shapes method, not whether we come.
How do you attach tarps without causing more damage?
Anchored at structure with battens and capped fasteners in a planned pattern — the goal is a tarp that survives wind without adding holes that matter.
