Emergency Roofing FAQs
How quickly can you respond to a roofing emergency in Myrtle Beach?
Response times vary based on weather conditions, time of day, and crew availability. During business hours, we typically arrive within a few hours. After-hours emergencies receive priority dispatch, with crews responding as quickly as safety permits. During major storm events affecting the entire region, response may take longer, but we triage based on severity.
What should I do while waiting for emergency roofing help?
If safe to do so: Place buckets under active leaks, move furniture and valuables away from water, take photos for insurance documentation, and turn off electricity in affected areas if water contacts outlets or fixtures. Do NOT attempt to climb on your roof, especially during storms or at night. Stay clear of sagging ceiling areas that could collapse.
Will insurance cover emergency roof repairs?
Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, accidental damage from storms, fallen trees, and other covered perils. Emergency tarping and temporary repairs to prevent further damage are typically covered. We provide detailed documentation and work with insurance companies regularly. However, gradual deterioration or lack of maintenance may not be covered—we can help you understand your specific situation.
Do you charge extra for emergency service or after-hours calls?
Our pricing reflects the urgency and timing of emergency work. While we strive to keep costs reasonable, emergency response does involve premium labor rates for after-hours, weekend, and holiday service. We provide transparent pricing before work begins, and in many cases, insurance covers emergency mitigation costs.
What's included in emergency roof tarping service?
Emergency tarping includes heavy-duty waterproof tarps secured with proper fastening techniques to protect exposed roof areas. We cover damaged sections completely, secure edges and corners to prevent wind uplift, and ensure water runoff doesn't create new problems. Tarps are temporary protection until permanent repairs can be completed safely.
Can you perform emergency repairs during hurricanes or severe weather?
Safety is our top priority. We cannot send crews onto roofs during active severe weather, high winds, or when conditions pose unreasonable risk. However, we respond immediately when conditions are safe, often within hours of storm passage. We maintain communication throughout weather events and mobilize as soon as possible.
