SERVPRO crews are available 24/7, so you can count on us to get to your home fast. Once we arrive, we’ll get right to work on tarping and boarding up your damaged roof to prevent rain, wind or other bad weather from adding to the toll on your home and possessions. Once we’ve protected your roof, we inspect the damage and begin repairing it. After the roof is secure and your home is no longer vulnerable, we get to work on restoring the damage to the rest of your home and property.

Follow our tips for staying safe after your roof is damaged.

• In the case of major roof damage, evacuate your home
• Assess the damage from the ground outside your home
• Don’t climb onto the roof—you may find out the hard way that there is hidden damage, leading to a collapse
• Don’t try to install a tarp during a storm
• Don’t try to remove debris from your roof
• Stay out of rooms below the damaged roof area
• Once your roof is tarped, do not walk on the tarped area
