Roof tarping after storm damage in Warm Mineral Springs

Why Warm Mineral Springs roofs need tarps

Summer squalls and tropical systems both tear at roofs in Warm Mineral Springs. Once it is safe to climb, we cover the opening, board up any broken glass, and start drying ceilings and insulation below.

Hurricane wind and summer thunderstorms reach every street in Warm Mineral Springs. We board up broken openings, tarp damaged roofs, extract water, and dry the structure. Roof repairs go to a licensed roofer.

Know your Warm Mineral Springs property

The median home in Warm Mineral Springs was built around 1984 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey); 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 68% of housing units in Warm Mineral Springs are mobile or manufactured homes, where metal and membrane roofs on manufactured homes need careful tarping so fasteners do not add new leaks. Warm Mineral Springs's median age is roughly 72. If a relative or property manager is handling things for you, we send them the same documentation. The Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey puts Warm Mineral Springs at about 4,540 residents.

Stay safe

• Do not climb on a wet or damaged roof yourself.
• Catch drips and move furniture and electronics out of the way.
• Keep everyone away from bulging or sagging ceilings.

Who pays, and who keeps the 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.

From the roof to the rooms below

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. Secure the tarp with battens and fasteners so it stays put in the next blow.
4. Board up any broken windows or doors at the same visit.
5. Leave you a record of what was covered and why.
