Emergency Roof Repair in Beaumont

Emergency roof repair on residential and commercial roofs assesses and photographs the damage, then stabilizes it, most often under a tarp.

The point of the visit is a roof that keeps the rain out tonight and a clear record of what the storm did, taken before anything is moved or covered.

Stay Safe Until the Roof Is Covered

Until the opening is covered, these steps keep the people in the house out of harm's way.

  • Stay off the roofA wet, damaged or unstable roof is no place to climb. Work at height falls under the OSHA fall protection standards, which is why it is left to a crew.
  • Keep clear of sagging ceilingsA ceiling that bows down may be holding trapped water or hiding structural damage, so keep everyone out from under it.
  • Shut off power under the leakSwitch off the breaker for any room where water is coming through, to prevent shocks.

Tarp First, Permanent Repair Next

Emergency work fixes the immediate problem before anything else with a temporary cover, then moves on to the permanent repair.

  1. Photos of the damage

    The damage is assessed and photographed as the storm left it, which is the record a claim leans on.

  2. A tarp over the opening

    "Tarping" covers the exposed area: the tarp is stretched over the damage and battened down so wind cannot get under it.

  3. The permanent repair

    A tarp is temporary and must be followed by a permanent repair, replacing the damaged "roof deck", "underlayment" and roofing so the roof is closed for good.

On a windstorm policy, TWIA publishes guidance on temporary repairs and on reporting a claim.

How Emergency Roof Repair Is Priced

Emergency roof repair is priced by the size of the damage, the materials and the access, and water that has soaked in deeper raises it.

Fixing it now is usually cheaper than fixing it after the next storm has pushed more water through the opening.

The exact price comes from the estimate, which is free, and we quote the whole job before any work starts.

Damage That Should Not Wait

A small leak left alone becomes rotted framing, mold in the walls and wet insulation.

Fallen branches and windblown debris crack tile, puncture roofing and bend the "flashing" at chimneys and walls, and every opening they leave lets the next rain in.

  • Chilo was super quick to respond and come by for a quote. I only needed minor repairs, but the work was done quickly (within the day) and for a fair price.

  • I am so happy I called IH roofing. My new roof looks great. I called 5 roofing companies and the bid from IH roofing was very competitive. $1000's less than the big companies. I told them my need was dire and they put me right into their calendar. They worked from 8am to dark and had my roof completed in under two days. The crew was courteous and they left my yard cleaner than they found it. I recommend I H roofing without any hesitation.
