Winchester Emergency Roofing FAQs

Will my homeowner’s insurance cover an emergency roof repair?

In most cases, yes. Homeowner’s insurance policies typically cover damage from unforeseen events like storms, wind, and fallen trees (often called “acts of God”). This usually includes the cost of emergency services like tarping to mitigate further damage, as well as the cost of the final repair. We document everything to assist with your claim.

What is an “emergency roof tarping” service?

Emergency roof tarping is a crucial temporary measure. When your roof has a large hole or significant damage, our team will securely fasten a large, industrial-grade waterproof tarp over the damaged section. This creates a strong, temporary barrier that effectively keeps rain and the elements out of your home until a permanent repair can be safely scheduled and completed.

Should I try to go on the roof myself to check the damage?

No, absolutely not. A storm-damaged roof can be extremely dangerous. The roof deck could be weakened, and surfaces will be slippery and unstable. It is never safe to go on your roof, especially after a storm. Please wait for a trained and properly equipped professional to safely assess the damage for you.
