Roof tarping after storm damage in Three Oaks

Why Three Oaks roofs need tarps

When wind or a limb opens a roof in Three Oaks, a tarp is temporary protection until a licensed roofer repairs it. We cover past the edges of the damage and fasten it to hold in wind.

Hurricane wind and summer thunderstorms reach every street in Three Oaks. 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

• Do not climb on a wet or damaged roof yourself.
• Photograph the damage from the ground and inside.
• Call your insurer and write down the claim number.

Know your Three Oaks property

Location: roughly 10 miles south of Fort Myers in Lee County. Renters occupy about 42% of homes in Three Oaks; we can coordinate access with tenants and send documentation to the owner. About 17% 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. The median home in Three Oaks was built around 2004 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey); many roofs are newer, but wind still lifts shingles and cracks tile.

Insurance and your claim

Tarping is temporary protection, not a roof repair. Your roofer handles the permanent fix; we give you and your insurer the photos and scope for the emergency work.

From the roof to the rooms below

1. Photograph the roof damage before it is covered, for your insurer.
2. Lay a heavy-duty tarp well past the edges of the damaged section.
3. Board up any broken windows or doors at the same visit.
4. Dry the ceilings, walls, and floors that took water through the roof.
5. Give you photos and a written record to hand your roofer and your insurer.
