Emergency Roof Repair Questions

How quickly can you respond to emergencies?

We typically respond within 1-3 hours for genuine roofing emergencies. Response time depends on current weather conditions, your location in Central Ohio, and crew availability. During major storms affecting many properties, response times may be slightly longer, but we prioritize active leaks and severe damage. Call (614) 635-7550 immediately when emergency strikes.

How much does emergency roof repair cost?

Emergency service calls typically cost $300-$800 for initial response, assessment, and temporary protection (tarping). This covers after-hours mobilization, emergency materials, and temporary repairs. Permanent repair costs are estimated separately after damage assessment. Many insurance policies cover emergency mitigation costs. We provide detailed estimates and work directly with insurance companies.

Will insurance cover emergency roof repairs?

Most homeowner's insurance policies cover emergency roof repairs resulting from storms, wind, hail, fallen trees, or other sudden covered events. Policies typically cover both emergency mitigation (tarping, temporary repairs) and permanent repairs. We document damage thoroughly, photograph everything, and work directly with insurance adjusters helping you maximize your claim.

Should I tarp my roof myself or wait for professionals?

Wait for professionals. Climbing on roofs—especially damaged roofs—is extremely dangerous, particularly during storms, at night, or on wet surfaces. Damaged roofs may be structurally compromised and unsafe. Improper tarping can cause additional damage. Our crews have proper safety equipment, training, and experience. Let us handle it safely.

What's included in emergency roof service?

Emergency service includes: rapid on-site response, comprehensive damage assessment, emergency tarping or temporary repairs, water mitigation, debris removal when necessary, thorough damage documentation with photos, insurance claim assistance, and detailed estimates for permanent repairs. We secure your property preventing further damage while planning comprehensive solutions.

Do you provide service during storms?

We respond to calls during storms but may need to wait for safe conditions before accessing roofs. Lightning, high winds, and severe weather make roof work extremely dangerous. We'll arrive as quickly as safely possible, often able to install ground-level protection or interior measures until conditions improve for roof access.

How long do emergency tarps last?

Professional emergency tarps typically last 30-90 days depending on weather conditions and tarp quality. We secure tarps properly using boards and fasteners—not just weights. Tarps are temporary solutions. We schedule permanent repairs as quickly as possible, coordinating with insurance and weather conditions.
