## Process

01. **Call and describe the leak** - We ask where the water is coming in, how much, and what the roof looked like before the storm, so we bring the right materials on the first trip.
02. **Same-day tarp-and-stabilize visit** - We assess the damaged area, clear loose debris, and install a tarp anchored through the roof deck so it does not blow off in the next wind gust.
03. **Attic and interior moisture check** - We check the attic and ceiling below the damage to see how far the water has traveled and whether insulation or decking needs to be addressed.
04. **Written repair plan and scheduling** - Once the roof is safe, you get a written scope and price for the permanent repair, scheduled around weather and your availability.

## When it's needed

- Water actively dripping or staining a ceiling during or after a storm
- Visible daylight through the attic decking near a vent or valley
- Shingles torn loose or missing after a wind event
- A tree limb has punctured or lifted the roof surface
- Granules and shingle fragments in the gutters or yard after a hailstorm
- A musty smell or a water stain that appeared or grew overnight
- A previous repair patch has failed during a new storm

## FAQ

**How fast can someone get here when my roof is actively leaking?**

Active leaks get same-day priority. Call and tell us what is happening and we will get someone out to tarp and stabilize the area before more water gets in.

**Will a tarp actually stop the leak or just slow it down?**

A properly anchored tarp, fastened through the decking rather than just laid over the shingles, will stop water intrusion in that area until the permanent repair is done.

**Can you tarp a roof in the rain or wind?**

We can tarp in light rain and moderate wind. If conditions are severe enough to put a crew at risk, we will wait for a safe window, which is usually a matter of hours, not days.

**Do I need to do anything before you arrive?**

Move anything valuable out from directly under the leak and put a container down to catch drips. Everything else, including debris cleanup, is handled on-site.
