Roof tarping after storm damage in Treasure Island

Roofs and storms in Treasure Island

When wind or a limb opens a roof in Treasure Island, 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.

Storm calls in Treasure Island mix wind-driven rain through windows and roofs with high water from canals, bays, or rivers. Board-up comes first, then extraction and structural drying.

Treasure Island by the numbers

The Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey puts Treasure Island at about 6,590 residents. Location: roughly 8 miles west of St. Petersburg in Pinellas County. Treasure Island's median age is roughly 63. If a relative or property manager is handling things for you, we send them the same documentation. About 33% 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.

How we tarp a Treasure Island roof

1. Document the damage with photos before the tarp goes on.
2. Lay a heavy-duty tarp well past the edges of the damaged section.
3. Secure the tarp with battens and fasteners so it stays put in the next blow.
4. Extract water that came in and set drying equipment in the rooms below.
5. Give you photos and a written record to hand your roofer and your insurer.

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.
