Emergency Roof Repair, Day or Night

When a roof fails, it usually fails at the worst time: in the middle of a storm, over a weekend or at two in the morning. A section peels back in the wind, a limb comes through the shingles, a leak starts running down a wall. Emergency roofing is about one thing, which is getting the house protected quickly.

The first job is stopping water from getting in. That may mean a tarp over a damaged slope, boards over a hole or sealing a failed flashing line so the structure and everything in it stay dry. Permanent repairs come after, when the weather clears and the roof is dry enough to work on.

We are open 24 hours, so you can call whenever the problem happens. Tell us where you are, what happened and what you can see, and we will work out the quickest way to get someone on the roof.

When to call for emergency roof repair

  • Water running through a ceiling, down a wall or dripping steadily
  • Part of the roof torn off or open to the sky
  • A tree, large limb or other debris on or through the roof
  • Shingles or metal panels blown off during a storm
  • A ceiling that is sagging or bulging with trapped water
  • Sudden daylight visible through the roof from the attic

How our emergency roofing response works

  1. Call us any hour

    Call the number at the top of the page and tell us what happened, where the leak is and whether anyone is at risk.

  2. Quick assessment

    We figure out how bad the damage is and the safest way to protect the house, based on the weather and the roof.

  3. Stop the water

    The crew tarps, boards or seals the damaged area to keep the building dry.

  4. Plan the permanent repair

    Once the roof is protected, we explain what the permanent repair involves and give you a free quote.

  5. Complete the repair

    When conditions allow, we replace the damaged materials and restore the roof properly.

What affects the cost of an emergency roof repair

Emergency work is priced by what it takes to protect the building, and several things affect it:

  • The size and location of the damaged area
  • The time of day or night, and how quickly you need a crew
  • Whether a tarp or board-up is enough, or deeper repair is needed
  • Weather conditions and how they affect safe access to the roof
  • The roof type and pitch
  • Whether the permanent repair is done right away or after the weather clears

Emergency Roofing Service FAQs

What counts as a roofing emergency?

Water coming into the house, a section of roof torn open or missing, a tree or large limb through the roof, or a roof that is visibly sagging. If you are looking at the sky from inside, or water is running through a ceiling, call right away.

What should I do while I wait for the roofer?

Stay off the roof. Move furniture and valuables away from the leak, put buckets under drips, and keep people and pets out from under a ceiling that is bulging with water or sagging. Take photos of the damage if it is safe to do so.

Will an emergency repair be permanent?

Often the first visit is about stopping the water: tarping or sealing the damaged area so the house is protected. Permanent repairs follow when the weather and the materials allow. We will tell you which stage you are at.

Are you really available at night and on weekends?

Yes. Elite Midnight Roofing is open 24 hours, so call the number at the top of the page whenever you have a roof emergency. The sooner we know, the sooner we can plan the response.

Is it safe to put a tarp on the roof myself?

We do not recommend it. Wet roofs are slippery, storms bring wind and lightning, and falls from roofs cause serious injuries. A tarp that is not secured properly can also blow off and do more damage. Call us instead.

Should I call my insurance company too?

If the damage is from a storm or a falling tree, most homeowners call their insurer. Take photos before anything is moved, keep the receipts for emergency work and tell us what you need from us for the claim.
