When the weather outside is less than ideal, it's important to take extra steps to ensure your roof doesn't take a hit. While you can take many preventative measures before a storm hits, such as replacing gutters and tightening loose sidings, you sometimes need to act fast. But when major repairs are needed, your roof may no longer be able to protect you from the elements. Emergency roof tarping is a temporary solution to prevent further damage to your home until more permanent repairs can be made.
