The short answer
Emergency roof repair in Carbondale means a person answers the phone at any hour, a crew tarps and dries in the roof to stop water entering the building, and the permanent repair is scheduled in daylight. Call (618) 549-0800.
Roofs do not fail at ten in the morning on a clear Tuesday. They fail during the storm, which in Southern Illinois often means late afternoon or the middle of the night, and usually on a weekend. That is the whole reason our phone is answered live 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
On an emergency call the objective is narrow: stop the water. That normally means tarping the affected slope, sealing or dry-in of the opening, and clearing whatever is on the roof if it can be removed safely. Estimating, insurance paperwork and shingle selection all wait until the water has stopped.
We are local, with our own crews in this region, so an emergency call goes to a company that is already here rather than one dispatching trucks from three states away after a storm makes the news.
When to call us
- Water actively dripping or running inside during or after a storm
- A tree or large limb down on the roof
- Shingles stripped off a slope by wind
- A section of roof or decking opened up or blown off
- Storm debris punctured through the roof
- Ceiling bulging or sagging from trapped water
