Roof tarping after storm damage in Goodland

Why Goodland roofs need a fast tarp

Manufactured-home roofs in Goodland are especially vulnerable to wind. We tarp metal and membrane roofs carefully and dry the interior.

As a low or barrier location, Goodland 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.

Stay safe

• Put buckets under drips and move belongings away from leaks.
• Keep everyone away from bulging or sagging ceilings.
• Photograph the damage from the ground and inside.

Local facts that shape the job in Goodland

Median year built: 1976. That matters because roofs on homes of that age have often been replaced or patched at least once, and older decking can be weaker under a tarp. Roughly 53% of housing units are held for seasonal or recreational use; a manager or neighbor is often the one who calls for a tarp. About 37% of housing units in Goodland are mobile or manufactured homes, where metal and membrane roofs on manufactured homes need careful tarping so fasteners do not add new leaks. Population: about 155 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimate).
