Emergency tarp service in Everglades City, FL

Roof openings we tarp in Everglades City

Roofs in Everglades City 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.

As a low or barrier location, Everglades City takes both surge and wind. After a storm we secure openings with metal panels, extract water that came in, and dry walls and floors before mold starts.

Insurance and your claim

We document the roof damage before and after the tarp goes on, and any water damage inside. Coverage depends on your policy. We are not a public adjuster.

From the roof to the rooms below

1. Document the damage with photos before the tarp goes on.
2. Cover the damaged area with a heavy tarp that extends past the damage.
3. Secure the tarp with battens and fasteners so it stays put in the next blow.
4. Board up any broken windows or doors at the same visit.
5. Give you photos and a written record to hand your roofer and your insurer.

Before the tarp goes on

• Do not climb on a wet or damaged roof yourself.
• Catch drips and move furniture and electronics out of the way.
• Report the damage and keep the claim number handy.
