When You Need Emergency Tarping

  • Active roof leak — Water is entering the home and a bucket is not enough.
  • Storm damage — Wind has removed shingles, broken flashing, or created a hole.
  • Ice dam leak — Water is being forced under shingles at the eaves.
  • Fallen tree or limb — A tree has punctured or damaged the roof.
  • Post-fire — Fire department operations have compromised the roof.

Our Tarping Process

  1. Safe access — We evaluate roof safety and use proper fall protection.
  2. Damage assessment — The tarp placement is planned to cover the damaged area completely.
  3. Batten board installation — Boards along the tarp edges secure it without roof penetrations.
  4. Tarp installation — Commercial-grade tarps are stretched and secured for wind resistance.
  5. Documentation — Photos and notes for your insurance claim.
