Roof Tarp

Prevent further damage from compromised roof

When your property is affected by a roof leak or storm damage and you need a waterproof roof tarp. An emergency roof tarp has a temporary lifespan which should provide you with enough time to get more permanent roof repairs carried out, though certainly can be affected if an additional storm rolls through. Having an emergency roof tarp installed on your home can be extremely important in the wake of a major storm.

The tarp helps to prevent your home’s condition from deteriorating any further and preserves the option of rebuilding by helping to keep your repair costs from getting any higher. By quickly (and accurately) installing an emergency roof tarp after your home has sustained damage, you can potentially save yourself tens of thousands of dollars in interior damage to your home.

Failing to secure your home with a tarp after a storm can lead to water leaks and mold growth. Without protection, your roof is vulnerable to damage, increasing the risk of interior harm and health hazards. Swift action with emergency tarp services is essential to prevent these issues.

Roof Tarping Installation Steps

• Assessment: Before installing the tarp, it's important to assess the damage and determine the size of the tarp needed to cover the damaged area adequately.
• Safety Measures: Working on a roof can be dangerous, so it's important to take safety measures, such as using a ladder safely, wearing slip-resistant shoes, and using a safety harness if necessary.

• Preparing the Tarp: Unfold the tarp and ensure it's large enough to cover the damaged area with extra space around the edges for securing it.
• Positioning the Tarp: The tarp should be placed over the damaged area so that it extends beyond the damaged section on all sides. It's important to smooth out the tarp to prevent water from pooling.
• Securing the Tarp: To secure the tarp, one can use wooden boards or strips nailed around the edges of the tarp to hold it in place. The boards should be nailed into the roof rafters, not just the sheathing, to ensure a secure hold. It's crucial to seal any seams or edges to prevent water from getting underneath the tarp.

• Checking for Water Flow: After securing the tarp, it's important to ensure that water can run off the tarp and not pool on its surface, as standing water can cause further damage.
• We provide a comprehensive report and a certificate upon completion of the service, outlining the procedures and outcomes. This detailed documentation is crucial for insurance claims, serving as a formal record of the restoration's thoroughness and compliance with industry standards
• Scheduled ongoing check-ins to make sure there is no remaining damage
