How can you tell if a roofing issue is an emergency? Well, any issue that allows water to infiltrate your roof is considered a roofing emergency. That’s because if moisture damage is left unattended for too long, it can spread to other parts of your home. If you notice signs of moisture damage, don’t hesitate to contact your local roofing contractors for immediate repairs. The sooner they inspect and fix roofing damage, the better. 

 

What should you expect during an emergency roof repair? 

Mitigating Storm Damage 

 

Storm damage is usually the main culprit behind roofing emergencies. As a rule of thumb, you should have a professional contractor inspect your roof after a storm or any extreme weather event. Even if your roof appears unscathed, it could still be harboring underlying damage, which only a trained professional will be able to identify.

 

Your roofer will visit your home as soon as the weather clears up. In the meantime, you should document the damage by taking photographs and detailed notes. Upon arriving, roofers will cover holes in your roof with a plastic tarp to mitigate storm damage.

 

What If You Don’t See Any Leaks?

 

Just because you don’t see any leaks yet doesn’t necessarily mean your roof didn’t suffer any damage. It takes time for signs of moisture damage to appear. And by the time it does appear, it’s too late to mitigate storm damage. Here’s a tip: write down your roofers’ contact info, so you can call them immediately in the event of a roofing emergency.
