We offer 24/7 emergency response across St. Catharines and the Niagara Region. During severe weather events, we typically arrive within 2–4 hours to assess damage, provide emergency tarping, and secure your roof to prevent further water intrusion. Our local crews are ready to respond in St. Catharines, Niagara Falls, Welland, and nearby Niagara communities day or night.

Yes. We provide detailed photo documentation, damage assessments, and itemized estimates that insurance adjusters require. We can meet with your adjuster on-site, explain the scope of storm damage, and help streamline your claim process. Many St. Catharines homeowners find our insurance support makes what could be a stressful situation much more manageable.

Emergency tarping involves securing heavy-duty waterproof tarps over damaged areas to prevent water intrusion until permanent repairs can be completed. We secure tarps with proper fastening to withstand St. Catharines' wind conditions off Lake Ontario. A well-installed tarp typically protects your home for several weeks to a few months, giving you time to work with insurance and schedule permanent repairs without additional water damage.

Costs vary widely based on damage severity. Minor repairs (a few blown shingles) typically start around $350–$750. Moderate wind damage requiring larger sections of shingles and flashing might be $2,000–$5,000. Extensive storm damage requiring structural repairs or partial roof replacement can be higher. After our inspection, we provide detailed estimates and most storm damage repairs are covered by homeowner's insurance.

We repair all types of weather-related roof damage including blown-off shingles, wind-lifted edges, hail damage, tree branch impacts, damaged flashing, torn underlayment, soffit and fascia damage, punctures, and wind-driven rain leaks. Our crews handle everything from minor repairs to major reconstruction after severe St. Catharines and Niagara storms, including coordination with tree removal services when needed.

Emergency tarping is completed the same day. Minor repairs often take 1–2 days once materials are available. More extensive damage requiring multiple roof sections, structural repairs, or waiting for insurance approval might take 3–7 days. After widespread storms affecting St. Catharines and the Niagara Region, there may be scheduling delays, but we prioritize emergency situations and keep you informed throughout the process.

First, stay safe — don't climb on your roof during or immediately after a storm. Document visible damage with photos from the ground. Check your attic for active leaks and place buckets under any drips. Contact us immediately for emergency response, then notify your insurance company. The faster you act, the less secondary water damage you'll experience inside your St. Catharines home.

Yes, we can perform emergency repairs and tarping year-round. For permanent repairs in cold weather, we use winter-rated materials and installation methods suitable for the Niagara Region's freeze-thaw cycles. In extreme cold, we may recommend temporary weatherproofing until spring for optimal installation, but we'll ensure your home is protected from further damage throughout winter.

Most like-for-like storm damage repairs don't require permits in St. Catharines. Emergency tarping never requires permits. If repairs involve structural changes, significant reconstruction, or more than 50% of your roof area, permits may be needed. We'll advise you on permit requirements for your specific situation and handle any necessary paperwork as part of our service.

We match shingles as closely as possible to your existing roof. However, new shingles may appear slightly different in colour compared to weathered shingles due to aging and UV exposure. For localized repairs, this difference usually blends in over time. If your roof is near the end of its lifespan, we'll discuss whether full replacement makes more sense than patching, especially for insurance claims.
