Storm season

Look at the roof before June

Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, and its peak is around September 10.

Afternoon thunderstorms start in June, so the time to look at a roof is before they do. From the ground, you can spot most of these.

  • Lifted or missing shingles

  • Cracked pipe boots

  • Loose ridge caps

  • Gutters packed with leaves

  • Stains on a ceiling or in the attic

The calendar

The season, month by month

  1. 01

    Step 1: Before June 1

    The easy time for a roof check or a re-roof: dry days and no rush.

  2. 02

    Step 2: June to mid-August

    Daily afternoon thunderstorms. Crews start early and cover whatever they open.

  3. 03

    Step 3: Mid-August to mid-October

    The busiest weeks of the season. Schedules fill, so tell us if water is coming in and your visit moves up.

  4. 04

    Step 4: By November 30

    The season ends. Fall is a busy time for re-roofs, so book early.

Right now

If water is coming in

  • Stay off the roof

    Wet shingles are slick and a storm is the wrong time to climb.

  • Protect and photograph

    Move belongings, catch drips, and take photos from the ground and inside.

  • Call us

    Say it is leaking. We can put a tarp on to keep water out until the repair. A tarp is temporary cover, not a repair.

Plainly

What we do, and what we don't

  • What we do

    • Inspect the roof and photograph what we find

    • Write an itemized estimate you can share with anyone you choose

    • Put temporary cover on a leaking roof

  • What we don't

    • We are not public adjusters

    • We do not deal with your insurer for you

    • We never pay, waive or absorb a deductible; it stays with you

About leaks and storms

Do you answer after hours?

The phone is answered during the hours in the footer. After hours, leave a message and say it is leaking; it is the first thing we read in the morning.

Does a tarp cost extra?

Yes. A tarp is quoted before it goes on, and the price is written on your estimate.

How long does a tarp last?

Days to a few weeks, depending on wind and sun. It is there to buy time for the repair.

Is it leaking now?

Call or text a photo and say so. Your visit moves to the front of the line.
