Every hour a damaged roof sits exposed, the damage spreads. Water reaches the underlayment, soaks the sheathing, wets the insulation, and stains the ceiling. A $500 repair becomes a $5,000 repair. Ben Franklin Roofing & Maintenance's emergency crew stops the progression by tarping and sealing the same day you call.
Wind damage and hail damage look different. Wind lifts and tears shingles, exposing underlayment and sometimes bare roof deck. Hail cracks the granule coating and bruises the asphalt layer, weakening the shingle without removing it. Both need prompt attention — wind damage exposes you immediately, hail damage causes slow deterioration that leads to leaks within months.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Call Us Now
Call (877) 586-1316 and describe the situation. Active leak, storm damage, fallen debris, collapsed section — we triage over the phone and dispatch a crew. Same-day response for active emergencies in Ben Franklin.
Tarp & Contain
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
Full inspection of the damage zone and surrounding area. Storm damage often extends beyond the obvious — we check for loosened flashing, cracked shingles, and compromised sealant that may not be visible but will fail in the next storm.
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.
