A roof emergency means water is getting in or about to get in. Wind-damaged shingles exposing the underlayment, hail-cracked shingles that won't survive the next rain, a fallen branch through the roof deck, or a suddenly leaking chimney flashing. Gerton Roofing & Maintenance handles all of it — fast. Call (877) 586-1316 and we'll be there.
Our emergency response follows a clear sequence. Step one: tarp the exposed area to stop water entry. Step two: remove immediate debris — branches, loose shingles, dislodged flashing. Step three: inspect the full extent of damage to the shingles, underlayment, roof deck, and flashing system. Step four: perform emergency patches where permanent repair isn't immediately possible.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Emergency Call
Call (877) 586-1316 for immediate emergency dispatch. We prioritize based on severity — active water intrusion gets same-hour response. Our Gerton crews are on standby during storm season.
Emergency Seal
Emergency tarping and sealing. We cover exposed sheathing, plug active leak points, and remove any debris that could cause additional damage. The goal is containment — stop the water, stabilize the damage.
Damage Assessment
Thorough damage assessment: how many shingles are missing or damaged, which flashing points failed, whether the underlayment is compromised, and whether the roof deck sheathing absorbed water. All documented with annotated photos for insurance.
Fix It Right
We schedule the permanent repair within days. Blown-off shingles replaced, damaged flashing rebuilt, compromised underlayment and sheathing replaced. The emergency patch holds while we source materials and schedule the crew for a full restoration.
