When our team at Southern Roofing Company gets called in for a shingle or metal roofing repair, the job is scheduled on the nearest available date. However, there are also times when the damage can be very severe and require immediate repair. An emergency repair really depends on how much damage your roof has actually taken. Often, this type of roof damage can’t wait several days, or even several hours in some cases.
Does Your Roof Damage Need Emergency Repairs?
We usually consider it an emergency if the damage can compromise the actual structure of your roof and allow water into your home. This includes severe active leaks, part of the roof or ceiling coming in, or if severe storm damage has caused one or more large areas of your roof to be weakened or exposed to the elements in any way.
Your own definition of a roofing emergency can also affect your decision of having a roof repair. But even a little leak erodes some insulation over time, which can become a fire hazard when the leak reaches your home’s electrical wiring.
Types of Emergency Roof Damage
If the damage is left unattended, it can saturate and cause internal damage to your roof’s structure, resulting in mold growth and rot. Here are some of the common roof emergencies that need immediate attention:
