Emergency Tarping & Leak Response

Our 24/7 emergency roof repair service covers active roof leaks, storm and wind damage, fallen tree limbs, missing shingles, and winter ice dams. We provide complimentary 24/7 emergency tarping to stop water intrusion until permanent repairs can be made.

This roof tarp service is a temporary stabilization step, not the final repair. Once conditions allow, we inspect the damage, document what we find, and explain the repair or replacement options for your Troy, Michigan home.

What To Do When Your Roof Fails

Discovering a wet spot on the ceiling or shingles torn from part of the roof can feel overwhelming. While every situation is different, there are safe steps you can take before our team arrives. These actions can limit damage and help keep your family safe.

Protect People and Belongings

If water is actively entering your home, protect people and belongings first. Move furniture and electronics away from the leak if it’s safe, and place buckets or containers beneath dripping water. You can gently puncture a swollen ceiling bubble with a screwdriver over a bucket to release water in a controlled way, but only if the area looks stable.

Do not climb onto the roof during or after a storm. Wet shingles, loose debris, and hidden structural damage increase the risk of falls. Stay inside and out of harm’s way while a trained roofing professional addresses the roof once conditions allow.

Document Damage From the Ground

Take clear photos or short videos of interior leaks, ceiling stains, and visible damage from the ground. This record helps us understand what’s happening. It may also be useful when you speak with your insurance carrier.

Take these practical steps right away:

• Protect people first and move everyone away from sagging ceilings or obvious hazards.
• Shift valuables, rugs, and electronics out of the path of water when it’s safe.
• Use containers to catch drips and towels to keep floors from becoming slippery.
• Turn off electricity to affected rooms if water is near light fixtures or outlets.
• Call us at (586) 500-7444 so our team can guide you and schedule an urgent visit.

After you contact us, we focus on stabilizing the roof and working to prevent further damage so you do not have to manage the situation alone.

Preparing a Homeowners Insurance Claim

After storm-related roof damage, protect the property from additional loss and contact your insurance carrier with your policy number ready. Keep photos and videos of interior leaks, ceiling stains, missing shingles, fallen limbs, and other visible damage. We assist with insurance claim preparation by providing reports, pictures, and supporting documentation from our inspection.

Keep these Michigan claim considerations in mind:

• Save receipts and records for temporary property-protection measures.
• Stay in contact with your insurer because Michigan insurers have no fixed deadline to complete a claim investigation.
• Understand that hail and high-wind coverage applies to the damaged portion of a roof rather than automatically covering the entire roof.
• Remember that the insurance company pays its claims adjuster. An adjuster shouldn’t request payment from you for services covered by your homeowners policy.

Coverage and payment depend on your policy and the insurer’s review. If a delay appears unreasonable, Michigan homeowners can contact the Department of Insurance and Financial Services about the complaint process.

Our Emergency Roofing Process

From your first call through the final walkthrough, we keep the work clear and consistent so you know what’s happening at each stage.

• Immediate Response & Safety Guidance: When you call, we listen to your concerns and ask focused questions about leak locations and storm history. We provide immediate safety tips over the phone to protect your family and property from electrical or structural hazards.
• Prompt Site Stabilization: We schedule a visit based on urgency. If active leaks are present or more storms are approaching, our first priority is stabilizing the situation with professional tarping and sealing to prevent further interior damage.
• Tech-Aided Damage Assessment: Once the site is stable, we perform complimentary inspections. Using drone imagery and detailed photography, we document the condition of your shingles, flashing, and transitions such as chimneys and skylights from multiple angles.
• Transparent Repair Planning: We review the images and explain our findings in plain language. We discuss whether a targeted repair is sufficient or whether the damage makes a full replacement a more responsible long-term choice.
• Clear Estimates & Financing: You receive a detailed written estimate outlining the scope of work and logistics. To help ease the stress of an unexpected emergency, we offer flexible financing solutions to help you move forward without straining your budget. The City of Troy requires a building permit for roofing work, and the permit must be posted at the job site before work begins. Michigan law requires a Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration license for residential roofing contracts totaling $600 or more unless an exemption applies.
• Professional On-Site Management: Our crews prioritize punctuality and cleanliness. We keep you updated on our progress, notify you of noisy work periods, and safeguard your landscaping while we work. These practices are part of our White Paw Service.
• Thorough Cleanup & Final Review: After the project is finished, we remove all debris and perform a walkthrough with you to review the completed repairs and ensure the site is spotless.
• Five-Year Workmanship Warranty: We finalize the project by explaining your five-year workmanship warranty and applicable manufacturer coverage on materials. Our team remains a phone call away if you have any questions once the “emergency” has passed.

Inspection Technology & Roofing Credentials

As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we meet established standards for workmanship, reliability, and professional service. Our complimentary inspections use drone-assisted imagery and detailed photography to distinguish issues such as failed flashing, cracked shingles, and damage around roof transitions.

If an emergency exposes related damage, we also handle siding, gutters, windows, and skylights. This allows us to explain the documented exterior issues together instead of leaving you to coordinate several contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to common questions Troy homeowners ask when urgent roof damage occurs.

How fast can your team get to my home?

We work to respond as quickly as possible, and timing depends on weather, current demand, and access to your property. When you call, we’ll discuss what you are seeing and give you a realistic window for our visit. We provide 24/7 emergency availability for homes in Troy.

What counts as a roofing emergency versus a small repair?

An emergency usually involves active leaks, obvious structural concerns, or damage that could quickly get worse, such as missing shingles after a storm. A small repair might wait if the roof is still watertight. If you are unsure, call us, and we’ll help you assess the situation.

Will you try to sell me a full replacement?

We give you clear information about your roof’s condition so you can decide what makes sense. If a repair is reliable, we’ll explain it. When we recommend replacement, we walk you through the reasons using photos and inspection findings rather than pressure.

How much will emergency roof repair cost me?

Cost depends on the extent of damage, roof type, and required materials. We provide complimentary inspections and a written estimate so you know what to expect before work begins. For larger projects, we can discuss flexible financing solutions to help spread out payments.

What kind of warranty do you offer on emergency work?

We explain the workmanship and manufacturer coverage that applies to your repair or replacement during your consultation. Our goal is to give you confidence that your emergency solution is supported over time.
