What to Expect After a Storm

With our enormous inventory of roofing products, kept on site at our warehouse facility, we have the ability to provide timely installations under devastating weather circumstances.
Hail Damage
When a roof is exposed to a hailstorm severe enough to cause granules to be knocked off from the surface of an asphalt shingle, the roof has definitely been compromised. The granules on the asphalt shingle protect the underlying asphalt from exposure to the sun. Prolonged sun exposure can cause the asphalt on the shingle to deteriorate, causing an asphalt roof to fail prematurely.
Wind and Rain
Winds can reach at least 300 miles per hour during a severe thunderstorm, wind blows shingles off the roof while the rain beats down causing a collection of rainwater that builds up and eventually breaks through the roof causing leaks. Winds can rip siding off your home and exacerbate the pelting of your exterior with hail and debris as well.
Hurricanes and Tornados
Maintaining a sturdy home that is protected from unexpected weather conditions can be incredibly difficult, especially in the case of a natural disaster. Hurricanes and tropical storm damages are a common occurrence in some areas of the United States. These strong winds, rain, and flooding can cause severe damage to homes.
FAQs About Emergency Roofing Services
What is emergency roofing?
Emergency roofing is fast-response repair to protect a home after sudden roof damage. It covers temporary tarping, leak containment, and structural stabilization to keep water out until a permanent repair or replacement can be scheduled.
When should I call for emergency roof repair?
Call right away if you have an active leak, storm or hail damage, a fallen limb or tree on the roof, missing or torn-off shingles, or any exposed roof decking. The faster the roof is repaired, the less water reaches your insulation, ceilings, and walls.
How fast can Guy Roofing respond?
Guy Roofing offers 24-hour emergency response across South Carolina and North Carolina. A local crew is dispatched to secure the roof, and because we have served the Carolinas since 1970, that crew is experienced and will get you in the dry fast.
What should I do while I wait for the crew?
Stay off the roof and out of any room with active water intrusion. Move valuables away from the leak, place a container to catch dripping water, and photograph the damage inside and out for your insurance claim. Leave the tarping and roof work to the crew.
Is the emergency repair protected long-term?
Yes. Once the emergency is stabilized and the permanent work is complete, your repair is backed by workmanship and material warranty coverage.
Does homeowners insurance cover emergency roof repair?
Often, yes. Most homeowner policies cover sudden, accidental roof damage from storms, wind, hail, or fallen trees, including the temporary repairs that prevent further damage. Guy Roofing can provide the inspection report and documentation your insurer needs for the claim.
How much does emergency roof repair cost?
Cost depends on the type and extent of the damage, how much of the roof is affected, and what permanent repair is needed afterward. Guy Roofing starts with a free inspection so you get a clear, written assessment before any work beyond emergency stabilization, with no surprise charges.
How long does a temporary roof tarp last?
A properly installed emergency tarp can protect your roof for several weeks, long enough to file a claim and schedule permanent repairs. It is a temporary measure, not a fix, so the goal is always to complete the permanent repair before the tarp's protection runs out.
Do you offer emergency roof repair after hours or on weekends?
Yes. Roofing emergencies do not wait for business hours, and neither do we. Guy Roofing offers 24-hour emergency response across South Carolina and North Carolina, including nights and weekends.
