One of the unfortunate aspects of emergency roof repairs is that a roof can be damaged at any time. Roofing can suddenly show signs of damage in the middle of the night, while company is over, or on holidays.
Being able to quickly and easily repair this damage is crucial, and while small amounts of damage can be repaired with relative ease, more significant problems will need to be addressed by a professional roofing repair company. Here, we will go over a few types of general roofing damage that may require emergency repairs, as well as a few ways to make emergency repairs easier.
One of the most common problems that warrant emergency repairs is severe weather. Heavy wind can blow larger objects into roofing, which can damage shingles and cause leaks, or even damage the integrity of the roof itself. If this is the case, repairs should not be attempted until the severe weather has passed.
This is especially true during thunderstorms, as it is never advisable to be on a roof during a storm (due to the possibility of being hit by lightning). Storm damage can also leave roofing in hazardous conditions, and only professionals should attempt to navigate roofing damaged by storms or winds.
If the condition of your roof is in question, then contacting a professional is likely the best course of action. If your roof is under warranty, then you will likely not have to pay for the repairs.
If you take it upon yourself to solve the problem immediately, such as if the damage to your roof has caused a significant leak, it should be handled in the safest way possible. These repairs are almost always temporary, and more permanent repairs should be conducted by a qualified professional.
Being prepared for severe weather by checking the overall condition of your roof, such as for damaged or missing flashings, areas where sealant or caulking is cracked or damaged, and other common sources of roofing problems can help prevent the need for emergency repairs. Checking your roof for debris after weather has cleared will help prevent damage.
Clearing out organic matter like leaves and branches is especially important, because these types of debris tend to collect and hold water, which can create problems for your roof. Being aware of common causes of roofing damage will allow you to better prepare for severe weather situations and reduce the risk of harm to your roof.
