DAMAGE CONTROL. IT’S A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE YOUR ROOF INSPECTED ON A REGULAR BASIS AND FIX MINOR ISSUES BEFORE THEY BECOME MAJOR PROBLEMS
COMMON CAUSES OF ROOFING EMERGENCIES
- Delayed maintenance and natural wear due to weather and UV radiation
- Fallen tree limbs
- High winds tear off shingles and/or roof decking
- Ice dams and ice buildup in valleys
- Improper installation practices
- Flashing failures at roof penetrations, including around chimneys, vent stacks, and dormers
Some residential roofing emergencies are preventable, but others are simply out of the homeowner’s control. Homeowners should always take care to have proper roof maintenance and practice preventative strategies, like snow removal, to prevent ice damming, but even in those cases a roofing emergency is a possibility.
THINGS TO REMEMBER IN A ROOFING EMERGENCY
In the case of a roofing emergency, make sure you remember these four points:
DON’T GO UP ON THE ROOF YOURSELF
Getting on your roof period poses a risk to your safety. However, a damaged roof is an even more dangerous environment. In America alone, over 300 ladder-related deaths occur every year. In order to prevent putting yourself in a precarious situation, you should let a professional be the first to check it out.
INSPECT THE ROOF VISUALLY
While we don’t recommend climbing on the roof yourself, that shouldn’t stop you from inspecting your roof from the ground. Go outside, and take a look to see if you can see any debris and possible damage. Take note of these things, and be sure to let the roofing company know when you schedule an inspection.
COVER THE INTERIOR
Using plastic sheeting, plastic bags, or even trash bags can protect the interior of your home and help prevent leaks.
IF YOUR CEILING IS BUBBLING, POP THE BUBBLE AND LET THE WATER OUT:
While this may seem like a frightening thing to do, if you don’t take care of the rapidly accumulating water, allowing the ceiling to collapse could cause far more damage. Grab a container to collect the water, and poke a hole in the ceiling as soon as you see this starting to happen.
THE IMPORTANCE OF SPEEDY STORM DAMAGE ROOF REPAIR
While the fact that you may be facing a hole in your roof when the latest storm blows through is important, equally as important is getting that hole fixed as soon as possible so that you can mitigate any damage done.

CHAMPION ROOFING IS YOUR LOCAL EXPERT FOR ROOF EMERGENCIES
When it comes to handling roofing emergencies, one of the most important things you can do is not be caught unawares. While you can’t predict what nature may throw your way, you can take steps to ensure you have a plan of action in place in case something does.
One of the best ways to do that is to research local roofing contractors beforehand, and keep their number on hand just in case an emergency hits. And make sure to be aware of so-called “storm chasing” roofers who are simply there to prey upon you in your distress and take your hard-earned money for subpar work in return.
