Seal it before the next band of weather.
Storms don't come through once. Blown-out windows, torn siding, and a breached roof leave your home open right when more rain and wind are on the way. We prioritize emergency calls and coordinate tarping and board-up based on conditions.
The damage is done. The next band decides how bad it gets.
Storm damage is different from most emergencies because the threat is still moving. A breached roof or a blown-out window is bad on its own — but the real question is how much rain and wind get in before the opening is closed, and there's usually more weather right behind the first hit.
That's why securing the openings is the first priority. We keep roof tarps, weather sheeting, plywood, and framing lumber staged at our Limerick shop to support emergency response. We're typically on-site within 2 hours for emergencies.
Every way a storm leaves a home open.
If the weather did any of this, the opening is a way in for the next band. Any one of them is a reason to call now, not after it clears.
A breached or torn-off roof
Lost shingles, a hole, or a section peeled back lets rain straight into the structure — the most urgent thing to tarp.
Blown-out or shattered windows
Wind-driven debris and pressure leave openings that let the storm keep pushing water and wind inside.
Torn-off siding or a wall breach
Stripped siding exposes the sheathing beneath it — a breach that wicks water into the wall until it's sealed.
More weather on the way
The forecast is the real deadline. If another band is coming, securing the openings before it arrives is what limits the loss.
Tarped and boarded before the next round.
Our own crews handle emergency mitigation start to finish. For rebuilds, we manage every trade under one accountable team. We manage board-up, drying, and rebuild as one coordinated job.
We coordinate the response
Tarps, sheeting, and lumber are staged locally for emergency work. We're typically on-site within 2 hours for emergencies.
We assess the openings
We confirm what the storm opened up — a breached roof, blown-out windows, torn-off siding — and make sure the structure around each opening is sound enough to fasten to.
We tarp the roof
A breached or torn-off roof gets covered with tarps and weather sheeting first — it's the opening that lets the most water in fastest, so it comes first.
We board the openings
Blown-out windows and siding breaches get plywood or OSB, framed and fastened into solid structure and weather-sealed to hold through the next round of wind and rain.
We document it same-day
Timestamped photos and a record of the work, sent the same day so your storm claim starts with a clean record of when the property was secured.
Storm-damage board-up, honestly answered.
Tarps, sheeting, and lumber are staged at our Limerick shop. We prioritize emergency calls by safe conditions, and we're typically on-site within 2 hours for emergencies.
In most cases, yes. Tarping and board-up are emergency mitigation — steps you're expected to take to keep storm damage from getting worse — and that's typically covered, often before the main claim is fully opened. We document it the same day so it's easy to substantiate.
A properly installed tarp, fastened and weighted into sound structure, is built to hold through wind and rain — not a sheet thrown over the roof for an afternoon. It's a real barrier meant to last until the permanent roof repair is scheduled.
As long as you need — through the claim process and until the permanent repair happens. A properly framed board-up and a fastened tarp are built to hold for weeks or months, which matters when storm season keeps every contractor busy.
Yes. Our own crews handle emergency mitigation start to finish. For rebuilds, we manage every trade under one accountable team. We manage tarping, board-up, drying, and rebuild on one schedule.
