Emergency Rate
When disaster strikes your roof, time is the enemy. Water intrusion can destroy insulation, drywall, and belongings in minutes. The Seattle Roofing Company provides true 24/7 emergency response. We don't just take messages; we dispatch equipped crews day or night to stop the bleeding and secure your home against the elements.
Rapid Deployment & Safety First
Our emergency trucks are stocked with heavy-duty tarps, lumber, and fast-curing wet-patch cement. Upon arrival, we perform a rapid triage assessment to identify the active water entry points. We prioritize safety, ensuring your family is out of harm's way before we access the roof.
Professional Tarping & Shrink Wrap
We don't just throw a blue tarp on your roof and hold it down with bricks. We install professional-grade reinforced tarps using furring strips and cap nails to create a watertight seal that can withstand high winds. For extensive damage, we offer heat-shrink wrapping services that essentially "shrink wrap" your roof, providing superior protection for months if needed.
Tree Removal & Impact Stabilization
If a tree has fallen on your home, we coordinate with emergency arborists to safely remove the debris without causing further collapse. Once cleared, we frame up and board over any structural breaches in the decking, securing the envelope of your home against rain and pests.
Detailed Insurance Documentation
Emergency repairs are almost always reimbursable by insurance. We document every step of the mitigation process with time-stamped photos and detailed narratives. This evidence is crucial for proving the extent of the initial damage and justifying the emergency costs to your adjuster.
Don't panic. Call our 24/7 hotline immediately. We will walk you through the immediate steps to take while our crew is en route. We are your calm in the storm, dedicated to protecting your home when it matters most.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you respond?
We typically arrive within 2-4 hours for true emergencies in our service area. We prioritize active leaks and structural damage.
What qualifies as an emergency?
Active leaks, storm damage with exposed decking, fallen trees on roof, fire damage, or any situation causing ongoing damage to your home's interior.
Do you work at night?
Yes, for true emergencies we will come out at night to tarp and secure the property. Permanent repairs are usually scheduled for daylight hours.
How much does emergency service cost?
Emergency call-out fees vary. We will provide upfront pricing over the phone or upon arrival before starting any work.
Can you stop a leak while it's raining?
We can almost always temporarily stop or divert a leak using tarps and wet-patch cement, even in heavy rain.
Will insurance cover emergency repairs?
Yes, most policies cover "reasonable repairs" made to protect the property from further damage. Save your receipts!
Do you remove fallen trees?
We can clear small branches to access the roof. For large trees, we coordinate with professional arborists to safely remove the tree before we repair the roof.
Is a tarp a permanent fix?
No, a tarp is a temporary measure (good for 30-90 days) to keep you dry until weather allows for a proper, permanent repair.
What if I'm not home?
If you can give us access instructions and approval over the phone, we can perform emergency mitigation without you being present.
Do you document the damage?
Yes, we take extensive photos of the damage before and after tarping, which are crucial for your insurance claim.
Do you handle fire damage?
Yes, we can board up and tarp roofs damaged by fire to protect the remaining structure from weather.
Can you fix gutters in an emergency?
Yes, if a falling gutter is posing a safety hazard or causing water to pour into the foundation, we can secure or remove it.
What areas do you serve for emergencies?
We serve the entire Greater Seattle area, including King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties.
Do you have financing for emergency repairs?
Yes, we offer financing options to help cover unexpected repair costs.
What should I do while waiting for you?
If safe, try to contain interior water with buckets. Move furniture away from the leak. Do NOT go up on the roof yourself during a storm.
