When You Need Emergency Roofing
You need emergency roofing when waiting for regular business hours will cause more damage to your home. Active leaks during rainstorms are the most common emergency. Water doesn’t just damage your roof. It soaks insulation, drips through ceilings, ruins drywall, and can even short out electrical systems. Every hour you wait multiplies the repair bill.
Wind damage is another urgent situation. If a storm tore off sections of shingles or flashing, your roof deck is exposed. The next rain will pour straight into your attic. Fallen tree branches or debris that punctured your roof create immediate openings for water, animals, and weather.
Hail damage isn’t always an emergency unless it created holes or knocked off shingles completely. But if you can see daylight through your attic or water is actively coming in, that’s when you call for emergency service regardless of the hour.
Our Emergency Response Process
Our emergency response process starts the moment you call. We answer 24/7, even at 3 AM on Sunday. You’ll talk to a real person who can dispatch a crew, not an answering service that takes messages. We ask about the damage, your location in Broomfield, and whether you’re dealing with active water intrusion.
For urgent situations with active leaks, we can usually get to you within 2-4 hours depending on weather conditions and how many other emergencies are happening. During major storm events that hit all of Broomfield at once, response times can stretch longer, but we’ll give you an honest timeframe when you call.
When we arrive, we assess the damage and focus on stopping water from getting in. That might mean emergency tarping, temporary patches, or securing loose materials that are at risk of blowing away. We’ll document everything with photos for your insurance claim. Once the immediate emergency is stabilized, we’ll give you an estimate for permanent repairs and work with your insurance adjuster to make sure the claim covers everything.
We’ve responded to emergencies in Anthem Ranch, Broadlands, McKay Landing, and across Broomfield. Distance from our office doesn’t matter when you’ve got an urgent situation.
Emergency Tarping
Emergency tarping is the fastest way to stop water damage when your roof is compromised. We carry heavy-duty tarps designed for roofing emergencies, not the thin blue tarps from hardware stores that rip apart in wind. These tarps can cover large sections of damaged roof and stay secured even in Colorado’s unpredictable weather.
The tarping process depends on the damage. For a tree branch that punched through, we’ll cover the hole and extend the tarp well beyond the damaged area to ensure water can’t seep under the edges. For widespread wind damage where multiple sections lost shingles, we might tarp half your roof. We secure tarps with boards and fasteners that won’t cause additional damage to good sections of your roof.
Tarps are temporary solutions, usually good for a few weeks to a few months depending on weather. They buy you time to get estimates, file insurance claims, and schedule permanent repairs. Don’t leave a tarp on your roof longer than necessary. Wind and sun degrade them, and water can pool on top if they’re not properly secured, creating new problems.
Temporary Repairs
Temporary repairs go beyond tarping when conditions allow. If the weather clears enough for us to work safely, we can patch holes, replace a few missing shingles, or secure loose flashing as a stopgap until permanent repairs happen.
These repairs aren’t meant to last years. They’re meant to protect your home until we can do the job right. Sometimes insurance adjusters take weeks to schedule inspections, or material shortages delay full replacements. Temporary repairs keep you dry and prevent secondary damage while you wait.
We use materials that won’t interfere with permanent repairs later. Everything we do during an emergency response is designed to stabilize the situation, not complicate the real fix.
Storm Season Preparation
Storm season preparation in Broomfield means getting your roof inspected before April when hail season starts ramping up. Most emergency calls we get could have been prevented if homeowners caught small problems early. A loose shingle that costs nothing to fix in March becomes an active leak during the first big storm in May.
We offer free roof inspections year-round, but spring is when you should schedule one if you haven’t had your roof checked in the past year. We’ll look for loose or damaged shingles, failed sealant around flashing, clogged gutters that can cause ice dams, and any signs your roof won’t handle the next hail storm.
If you’re in an older neighborhood like Broomfield Heights or Northmoor Estates where roofs are 15+ years old, preparation matters even more. Older roofs fail faster under stress. Having our contact information saved before an emergency happens means you’re not scrambling to find a roofer at midnight while water pours into your house.
We also recommend documenting your roof’s condition with photos before storm season. If hail hits and you need to file an insurance claim, before-and-after photos strengthen your case. Walk around your house after every major storm and look for warning signs: shingle granules in gutters, dented vents, or visible damage to shingles.
Why Emergency Response Speed Matters in Colorado
Colorado weather is unpredictable and extreme. A storm can dump three inches of rain in an hour. Wind gusts hit 60+ mph. Hail the size of golf balls punches through roofs in minutes. When your roof fails during one of these events, every hour of delay means more water soaking into your home’s structure.
Water damage spreads fast. What starts as a small leak in your attic becomes ceiling stains in your bedroom, then mold in your walls, then ruined insulation that needs complete replacement. We’ve seen homeowners wait overnight to call someone, thinking they could tough it out until morning. By the time we arrived, what should have been a simple tarp job turned into ceiling repairs, carpet replacement, and mold remediation.
Fast response also protects your insurance claim. If you let water damage spread for days without taking action to mitigate it, insurance companies can argue you didn’t do enough to prevent additional damage. Emergency tarping and temporary repairs show you acted responsibly to minimize the loss.
What to Do While You Wait for Emergency Service
If you’ve called us for emergency roofing and you’re waiting for our crew to arrive, there are things you can do to minimize damage. Move furniture and valuables away from active leaks. Put buckets or towels down to catch water. If water is coming through a light fixture, turn off power to that circuit at your breaker box.
Don’t climb on your roof yourself, especially during a storm or in the dark. Wet roofs are incredibly dangerous, and trying to tarp or patch damage without proper equipment and experience can get you hurt. Let us handle it. We’ve got the safety gear, experience, and insurance to work on roofs in bad conditions.
Take photos and videos of the damage for your insurance claim. Document where water is coming in, what’s getting damaged, and the conditions outside. This evidence supports your claim and helps adjusters understand the scope of the emergency.
After the Emergency: Permanent Repairs
Once we’ve stabilized your roof with tarps or temporary repairs, the next step is permanent restoration. We’ll work with your insurance company if you’re filing a claim, meet with adjusters, and provide detailed documentation of all damage. Most emergency situations that require tarping end up needing significant repairs or full replacement.
As Owens Corning Preferred Contractors, we can install new roofing systems with extended warranties that give you peace of mind for decades. We’ll explain all your options, show you material samples, and give you an honest timeline for permanent repairs.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If you’re not happy with our emergency response or permanent repairs, we’ll make it right.

Broomfield Emergency Roofing Questions Answered
Questions & Answers
A roofing emergency is any situation where waiting for regular business hours will cause additional damage to your home. Active leaks during rainstorms are the most common emergency because water spreads fast through ceilings, walls, and insulation. Fallen trees or large branches that punched through your roof create immediate openings for weather and need urgent response. Wind damage that tore off sections of shingles leaves your roof deck exposed to the next rain. Severe hail damage that created holes or knocked off large areas of roofing material also qualifies. If you can see daylight through your attic, water is actively dripping inside, or major sections of your roof are missing or damaged, that’s an emergency. Minor issues like a few missing shingles without active leaks can usually wait until morning.
We answer emergency calls 24/7 and can typically reach Broomfield locations within 2-4 hours for urgent situations with active leaks. Response time depends on current weather conditions, how many other emergencies are happening simultaneously, and your specific location. During major storm events that impact all of Broomfield at once, response times can stretch longer because we prioritize the most severe situations first. When you call, we’ll give you an honest estimate of when we can arrive. We don’t use answering services. You’ll talk to a real person who can dispatch a crew immediately, even at 3 AM. Our office location near the Westminster border means we can reach most Broomfield neighborhoods quickly, including Broadlands, Anthem Ranch, and McKay Landing.
No, don’t climb on your roof yourself, especially during a storm, at night, or in wet conditions. Roofs are extremely dangerous when wet, and trying to secure tarps without proper safety equipment and experience can get you seriously hurt. Even experienced roofers use harnesses, ropes, and safety protocols. A fall from a single-story roof can cause life-threatening injuries. Let us handle it. We have the equipment, insurance, and training to work on roofs safely in bad conditions. While you wait for our crew, focus on protecting the inside of your home. Move furniture and valuables away from active leaks, put down buckets to catch water, and take photos for your insurance claim. If water is coming through a light fixture, turn off power to that circuit at your breaker box to prevent electrical hazards.
Have your address ready first. That’s the most important piece because we need to know where to send the crew. Tell us what happened: storm damage, fallen tree, active leak, wind damage. Describe what you’re seeing right now: Is water actively coming in? Where is it leaking? Can you see the damage from the ground or inside your attic? Let us know if the situation is getting worse or stable. If you’re safe to look, check if you can see missing shingles, holes in the roof, or debris. Don’t climb on the roof to investigate. Your safety matters more than details. Have your phone number ready in case we need to call you back with updates on arrival time. If you know your insurance company and policy number, that’s helpful but not required for emergency response. We can handle insurance details later. The main things we need immediately are: where you are, what happened, and whether water is actively coming into your house right now.
Most homeowners insurance policies cover emergency services like tarping and temporary repairs when the damage resulted from a covered event like hail, wind, or fallen trees. Emergency response costs are typically part of your overall claim, not a separate charge. Insurance companies expect you to take reasonable steps to prevent additional damage after a roofing emergency, so tarping and temporary repairs actually protect your claim. If you wait days without doing anything to stop water intrusion, insurers can argue you didn’t mitigate the damage properly. Save all receipts and documentation from emergency services. We’ll photograph everything, document the damage, and provide detailed invoices that support your insurance claim. If we handle both the emergency response and permanent repairs, the emergency costs usually get credited toward your final bill.
We can do emergency tarping and temporary repairs at night, but safety and weather conditions determine what’s possible. If lightning is actively striking or winds are dangerously high, we’ll wait for conditions to improve enough to work safely. No roof repair is worth risking lives. Once weather allows, we can tarp roofs in the dark using work lights. Emergency tarping at night is common because storms often hit in evening hours. Temporary repairs that require walking on steep or wet sections of roof typically wait until daylight and dry conditions when we can work safely. When you call during severe weather, we’ll assess conditions and give you realistic expectations about timing. Sometimes the best approach is getting there quickly to assess damage and plan the response, then executing repairs as soon as weather permits.
Emergency tarps are temporary solutions designed to last weeks to months depending on weather exposure and tarp quality. We use heavy-duty tarps specifically designed for roofing emergencies, not thin hardware store tarps that rip apart quickly. Properly secured tarps can protect your roof for 1-3 months in normal conditions. Colorado’s intense UV exposure, temperature swings, and wind gradually degrade tarps over time. Don’t leave tarps on longer than necessary. They’re meant to buy you time to get insurance estimates, order materials, and schedule permanent repairs. Extended tarp coverage can create new problems if water pools on top or wind works edges loose. We’ll secure tarps to handle typical Colorado weather, but plan to move forward with permanent repairs as quickly as possible. If your tarp needs replacement before permanent repairs happen, we’ll come back and install a fresh one.
Emergency repairs stop immediate damage and protect your home until we can do the full fix properly. They’re temporary solutions like tarping, patching holes, or securing loose materials. The goal is stopping water intrusion and preventing additional damage while you wait for insurance adjusters, material orders, or better weather. Emergency repairs use temporary materials and methods that won’t last years. Permanent repairs are the real fix: replacing damaged sections, installing new shingles properly, repairing or replacing roof decking, fixing flashing correctly. Permanent work comes with warranties and is designed to last 20-30 years depending on materials. Emergency repairs might last a few weeks to a few months. Think of emergency work as a bandage and permanent repairs as surgery. The bandage stops the bleeding right now. Surgery fixes the underlying problem for good. We handle both, and emergency costs typically get credited toward your permanent repair bill if we do the full job.
