Emergency tarping

Installing temporary protective coverings to prevent immediate water entry until permanent repairs can be completed safely.

Common Causes of Roofing Damage

Your roof protects everything you value inside your home, but certain events can compromise this protection without warning. Here are the most common causes of roofing emergencies that require immediate professional attention:

Wind damage: High winds lift shingles, create tears in roofing materials, and expose underlayment to moisture infiltration.
Ice dams: Water freezes at roof edges during winter, forcing moisture underneath shingles and creating interior water damage.
Fallen tree limbs: Heavy branches crash through roofing materials during storms, creating large openings.
Flashing failures: Metal flashings around chimneys, vents, and roof transitions deteriorate, allowing water to penetrate vulnerable junction points.
Storm debris: Accumulated branches and leaves trap moisture against roofing materials, accelerating deterioration.
Clogged gutters: Backed-up gutters force water to pool on roof surfaces, eventually finding weak points.
Aging materials: Older roofing becomes brittle and vulnerable to sudden failure during weather events.
