Anna Maria roofs and wind

Roofs in Anna Maria take hurricane and thunderstorm wind. Lifted shingles, cracked tiles, and fallen limbs open the attic to rain; we cover the damage, fasten the tarp, and dry what already got wet.

Hurricane wind and summer thunderstorms reach every street in Anna Maria. We board up broken openings, tarp damaged roofs, extract water, and dry the structure. Roof repairs go to a licensed roofer.

Documentation for your insurer

Why Anna Maria's housing stock matters here

The median home in Anna Maria was built around 1975 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey); roofs on homes of that age have often been replaced or patched at least once, and older decking can be weaker under a tarp. Location: roughly 10 miles west of Bradenton in Manatee County. Roughly 35% of housing units are held for seasonal or recreational use; a manager or neighbor is often the one who calls for a tarp. The Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey puts Anna Maria at about 825 residents.

Before the tarp goes on

  • Keep everyone away from bulging or sagging ceilings.
  • Photograph the damage from the ground and inside.
  • Call your insurer and write down the claim number.

Common questions

Emergency roof tarping questions in Anna Maria

What roof damage do you tarp in Anna Maria?

Roofs in Anna Maria take hurricane and thunderstorm wind. Lifted shingles, cracked tiles, and fallen limbs open the attic to rain; we cover the damage, fasten the tarp, and dry what already got wet. We cover the damaged area, fasten the tarp to hold in wind, and dry any water that came inside. Call (239) 688-2880, 24/7.

Can you tarp a roof during a storm?

No one should be on a roof in high wind or lightning. We tarp as soon as conditions are safe, and in the meantime we can help with water inside.

Does insurance pay for emergency tarping?

Many policies treat emergency tarping as reasonable work to prevent further damage, but coverage depends on your policy. We document the work for your insurer.

Do you repair roofs in Anna Maria?

No. We tarp the roof to stop water getting in, and we dry the water that already came inside. Permanent roof repairs go to a licensed roofer.

How long can a roof tarp stay on?

A tarp is temporary. It is meant to keep water out until a licensed roofer can repair the roof. After a big storm that can take a while, so we fasten it to hold through wind and rain.
