Emergency roof repair is about containment first, permanent fix second. We secure the exposed area with a tarp or emergency sealant to stop active water intrusion. Then we assess the full extent of damage and schedule the permanent repair. Mcdowell Roofing & Maintenance has been responding to roof emergencies across Mcdowell for 17 years.
We carry everything needed for emergency roof repair on every truck: poly tarps in multiple sizes, 2x4 batten boards, cap nails, replacement shingles in common colors, step flashing, pipe boots, roofing sealant, and waterproof caulk. If your emergency requires materials we don't carry, we source them same-day from our supplier network in Mcdowell.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Rapid Response
You call, we respond. Tell us what happened and we'll have a crew headed your way. Active leaks and exposed deck get priority dispatch. We carry tarps, sealant, and repair materials on every truck.
Stop the Water
Poly tarps secured with 2x4 battens and cap nails over all exposed areas. Active leak points sealed with roofing sealant. Loose or hanging shingles, flashing, and debris removed to prevent further damage in the next rain.
Damage Assessment
With the emergency contained, we inspect the full extent of damage. Shingles, underlayment, roof deck, flashing, gutters, fascia, and soffit. We document everything with photos for your insurance claim — location, type, and severity of each damaged component.
Permanent Repair Scheduled
We schedule the permanent repair within days. Blown-off shingles replaced, damaged flashing rebuilt, compromised underlayment and sheathing replaced. The emergency patch holds while we source materials and schedule the crew for a full restoration.
