FAQs
What should I do immediately after a storm damages my roof in Evensville?
First, ensure everyone in the household is safe and avoid areas with visible structural damage or downed power lines. If it’s safe, take photos or videos of the damage for insurance purposes, then contact an emergency tarping and storm-damage restoration specialist. Quick tarping protects the interior from further water intrusion while you work with your insurer on a permanent repair plan.
How quickly can your team install emergency roof tarping in Evensville?
We maintain 24/7 on-call crews for Evensville and the surrounding Rhea County area. In most cases we can be on-site within 1–2 hours of your call, weather and road conditions permitting. Rapid deployment prevents additional water damage, mold growth, and structural deterioration.
Will my homeowners insurance cover emergency tarping and storm damage repairs?
Most standard homeowners policies in Tennessee cover both emergency mitigation (such as tarping) and subsequent repairs, provided the damage resulted from a covered peril like wind, hail, or fallen trees. We document the damage, supply detailed estimates, and can work directly with your adjuster to streamline the claim. Your only potential out-of-pocket cost is the policy deductible unless exclusions apply.
How long can a temporary tarp stay on my roof?
High-quality, professionally installed tarps can protect a roof for 60–90 days, sometimes longer depending on weather exposure. However, they are a short-term solution. We recommend scheduling permanent repairs as soon as possible to prevent UV degradation, wind uplift, and potential leaks around tarp fasteners.
What types of storm damage do you handle besides roof tarping?
Our full-service storm restoration team addresses shingle, metal, and flat-roof repairs; structural decking replacement; gutter and fascia reconstruction; siding damage; interior water extraction and drying; and mold remediation. We also provide tree limb removal and temporary board-ups for broken windows or skylights.
Is it safe to tarp the roof myself?
DIY tarping is risky. Wet, wind-damaged roofs are slippery, and improper anchoring can cause further damage or void warranties. Our technicians are trained in fall protection, carry liability and workers’ comp coverage, and use commercial-grade tarps and fasteners designed to withstand Evensville’s weather swings. Professional installation protects both your home and your safety.
