Why tarping right away matters
Stops water intrusion
A properly secured tarp keeps rain and wind out of the attic, ceilings, and walls.
Limits structural damage
Less water reaching decking, framing, and drywall means less to repair later.
Reduces mold risk
Keeping materials dry helps prevent conditions where mold can grow inside the home.
Protects your belongings
Furniture, flooring, and contents stay protected while you plan next steps.
Supports your insurance claim
Prompt action to prevent further damage is often expected by insurers, and we document the conditions we find.
Buys time for permanent repairs
Gives you time to get roofing estimates, permits, and claim approvals in order.
How our roof tarping works
Assess safely
We inspect the roof and interior to locate damaged areas and entry points for water, when it is safe to access.
Document
Photos of the roof and interior damage are taken before tarping to support your records and claim.
Install the tarp
Heavy-duty, weather-resistant tarps are fitted over the damaged area and secured to resist wind and rain.
Address the interior
If water got inside, our team can begin extraction and drying to limit further damage.
Water already got inside?
Roof leaks often lead to wet ceilings, insulation, and drywall. BO Restoration can dry the structure and handle the repairs once the roof is protected.
Emergency Roof Tarping questions
How long can a roof tarp stay in place?
A tarp is a temporary measure. How long it holds up depends on weather and installation conditions. It's meant to protect the home until permanent repairs can be made, so we recommend scheduling those as soon as possible.
Will my insurance cover emergency roof tarping?
Many policies expect homeowners to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage after a loss, and tarping is a common example. Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your insurer. We document the damage to support your claim.
Do you tarp roofs during a storm?
Crews can only work on a roof when it is safe to do so. During high winds or lightning, we focus on protecting the interior and tarp the roof as soon as conditions allow.
Can you dry out my home after the roof is tarped?
Yes. Our water mitigation team can extract water and dry ceilings, walls, and floors affected by the leak.
