Emergency Roof Tarping in Reno That Gets It Done Fast
When a storm or fallen tree opens up your roof, the first goal is keeping water out. Roof tarping is a temporary but effective weather barrier that protects your home, belongings and insurance claim until the permanent repair can be made.
We install professional-grade tarps, properly secured with battens and fasteners so they stay put in wind. We do not rely on nails through the tarp or sandbags tossed on the roof. A good tarp job holds up for weeks and does not do additional damage to your roof.

How emergency tarping works
We assess the damage, clear loose debris, and cover the affected area with a heavy-duty tarp that extends up and over the ridge when possible. We fasten it with battens so wind cannot get underneath it.
We photograph the damage and the tarp for your insurance company and then schedule the permanent repair. Often we can do both: tarp now and complete the repair soon after. Learn more about emergency roof repair and storm damage repair.

Emergency Roof Tarping in Reno: Common Questions
How long can a roof tarp stay on?
A properly installed tarp is a temporary solution, generally for weeks to a few months. It is not a substitute for permanent repair.
Will a tarp damage my roof?
Done correctly, no. We use batten-style fastening and avoid unnecessary penetrations.
Does insurance cover roof tarping?
Many policies cover temporary repairs needed to prevent further damage after a covered event. Check with your insurer, and keep your receipts and photos.
Can you tarp a roof in rain or snow?
Often yes, when it is safe. Safety on wet, icy or windy roofs comes first, and we will tell you what is possible.
Do you do the permanent repair too?
Yes. We can complete the permanent repair or replacement once the roof is ready.
