Emergency tarp service in Cape Coral, FL

Cape Coral roofs and wind

Cape Coral roofs are mostly tile and shingle on single-story block homes, and many took damage in 2022. Canal-front homes catch the full force of wind coming across open water.

Cape Coral's canals connect much of the city to the Gulf, so surge and high water are real storm risks along with wind. Storm calls mix water pushed in under doors and sliders with rain coming through damaged roofs and windows. We secure openings, extract, and dry.

From the roof to the rooms below

1. Document the damage with photos before the tarp goes on.
2. Fasten and weight the tarp so it holds in wind.
3. Board up any broken windows or doors at the same visit.
4. Extract water that came in and set drying equipment in the rooms below.
5. Give you photos and a written record to hand your roofer and your insurer.

Insurance and your claim

Most policies expect you to prevent further damage after a loss, and an emergency tarp does exactly that. We document the tarp and the damage for your insurer. You keep the claim.

Before the tarp goes on

• Put buckets under drips and move belongings away from leaks.
• If a ceiling is sagging with water, stay out from under it.
• Report the damage and keep the claim number handy.
