Why Lake Sarasota roofs need tarps

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

Know your Lake Sarasota property

Lake Sarasota is about 7 miles southeast of Sarasota. Median year built: 1985. 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 3,701 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimate).
