Emergency Tarping in Pittsburgh homes
When a Pittsburgh storm tears open a roof, a tarp stops the water fast and protects the home until a permanent repair can be scheduled. We secure tarps properly so they hold in wind, not just draped over the hole. Wind through the valleys, ice, and heavy snow all test a tarp, so we anchor it right. We photograph the damage for your insurance and tell you honestly how long the tarp will last.
Why choose us
Water-first dispatch
We stop the water before we talk about anything else. A tarp or a leak stop protects your home and your belongings while we plan the permanent repair. The first call is about keeping you dry, not about selling you a new roof.
Insurance-ready photo documentation
We photograph the damage, the cause, and what we did, and we hand you a clear summary. Your adjuster gets what they need to make a decision. Coverage is always your carrier's decision, but our photos support your claim.
Honest repair-vs-replace calls
If a repair will hold, we say so. If the roof is at the end of its life or the damage is too widespread, we say replacement makes sense. We give you the real answer and a price for both. The decision is always yours.
