A sturdy roof over your head is the primary factor that will keep you and your family safe from harsh weather and pesky critters. Keeping it in good repair at all times is, therefore, not only conducive to your safety but also to your wallet. While regular roofing services are important, it is crucial to be able to determine when the situation has peaked to an emergency level calling for immediate roofing service.

When do you know that you require a true roofing emergency?
Here are some examples of situations that qualify as veritable roof repair emergency-
- You have developed a gaping hole in the roof brought about by a cave-in after a tree, branch or any other object blown in by the wind has smashed in.
- There are leakage points across your roof caused by torn-off shingles or flashing due to high winds or heavy storms. The leakage may get water gushing inside your house every time it rains.
- You have to use a tarp to cover a particular area of the roof which has been damaged by inclement weather. In this situation, you may need to get a temporary patch repair done to prevent expensive water damage until a deeper and more extensive job can be conducted.
- If your roof or a section thereof gets exposed to fire, it may compromise the integrity of the roof deck or the roofing that it holds despite the shingles staying in place. If you are faced with such a situation you should immediately get your roof inspected and repaired.
