What Counts as a Roofing Emergency?
Not every roof problem is an emergency, but these situations require immediate attention:
- Active leaks — water dripping through the ceiling, running down walls, or pooling in the attic
- Missing sections — large areas of shingles stripped by wind, exposing underlayment or sheathing
- Fallen trees — tree limbs or trunks puncturing the roof structure
- Storm damage — hail impact, flying debris, or structural compromise from high winds
- Sagging roof sections — indicating structural failure that could lead to collapse
In these situations, waiting even one rain cycle can turn a $2,000 repair into a $15,000 problem. Call us first — we'll get your property secured.

Yes. We provide detailed photo documentation, damage assessments, and itemized repair estimates formatted for insurance adjusters. We've processed hundreds of storm damage claims across Pierce County and know exactly what documentation carriers need to approve repairs quickly. We work directly with your adjuster throughout the process.
How fast can you respond to an emergency?
We respond as quickly as possible during normal business hours and prioritize emergencies over scheduled work when active water intrusion is occurring. During major storm events that affect multiple properties, we triage by severity — active leaks and structural damage get first priority. Tarping can often be completed within hours of the initial call.

Emergency Service Questions
Most homeowner's policies cover sudden storm damage including wind, hail, and fallen trees. They typically don't cover damage from deferred maintenance or gradual wear. We document everything your adjuster needs and can meet with them on-site. Filing your claim promptly after damage occurs is important — most policies have time limits for reporting.
Place buckets under active leaks, move furniture and valuables away from water, and take photos of all visible damage for your insurance claim. If you can safely access the attic, check for the water entry point. Do not go on the roof yourself — wet roofs are extremely dangerous, especially after storm damage has compromised the structure.
Emergency tarping and temporary repairs are billed at our standard labor and material rates. We don't add surcharges for urgency. The cost depends on the scope of work needed to secure your property. For insurance-covered damage, the emergency tarping cost is typically included in the overall claim.
