Harlem Heights roofs and wind

Roofs in Harlem Heights 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 Harlem Heights. We board up broken openings, tarp damaged roofs, extract water, and dry the structure. Roof repairs go to a licensed roofer.

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.
  • Take photos from the yard and of every leak inside.

What emergency tarping includes

  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. Fasten and weight the tarp so it holds in wind.
  4. Board up any broken windows or doors at the same visit.
  5. Extract water that came in and set drying equipment in the rooms below.

Harlem Heights by the numbers

About 57% of units are in buildings with 10 or more units, so flat and low-slope roofs on larger buildings need a different cover than a house. Median year built: 1989. 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. Population: about 1,694 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimate). Harlem Heights is about 9 miles southwest of Fort Myers.
