HomeBlogWhen Is Roof Tarping Necessary?

Your roof is the first line of defense for your home against the elements. In other words, it’s the first part of your home that faces harsh winds, hail, heavy rains, etc., so it’s no wonder when it suffers some damage during extreme weather. When this time comes, it’s important to schedule roof repairs, but this might not always be possible right away. That’s when you might consider roof tarping instead. Here are a few times when roof tarping is necessary.

When Is Roof Tarping Necessary?

  • During ongoing storms: A damaged roof can result in water damage and many more issues for the rest of your home. That’s why it’s important to repair the damage as soon as possible, but an ongoing storm or severe weather can make it unsafe to repair your roof, and you will need to have roof tarping done instead.
  • As a temporary solution: When you have a damaged roof and your roofing company can’t come out right away or the roofing materials aren’t immediately available, you can’t just wait with a gaping hole in your roof. Roof tarping can offer a temporary and effective solution to protect your roof from any additional damage until your roof can be professionally repaired.
  • In case of emergencies: Roof tarping is especially the answer in times of roofing emergencies. If a tree branch has fallen through your roof, for example, you can rely on roof tarping to serve as a fast emergency repair until the regular roofing crew is able to reach your home.
