Villas: local context

Median year built: 1984. 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. About 40% of occupied homes are rented, so landlords, tenants, and managers often share the call and the paperwork. Population: about 13,801 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimate). Roughly 12% of housing units are held for seasonal or recreational use; a manager or neighbor is often the one who calls for a tarp.

Claims paperwork

Most policies expect you to prevent further damage after a loss, and an emergency tarp does exactly that. We document the tarp and the damage for your insurer. You keep the claim.

Stay safe

  • Stay off the roof. Wet and damaged roofs are dangerous.
  • 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. Photograph the roof damage before it is covered, for your insurer.
  2. Secure the tarp with battens and fasteners so it stays put in the next blow.
  3. Close broken openings with metal panels while we are there.
  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.
