Emergency Roof Tarping in Fontana
Fontana takes some of the hardest winds in the Inland Empire. When they tear shingles or drop tile and rain is coming, call (909) 404-9464. The phone is answered 24 hours, and we tarp the damage to keep the water out until the repair.
Wind Out of the Cajon Pass
Santa Ana winds pour through the Cajon Pass and hit Fontana before most of the valley. Old shingles that have lost their seal tear first. On tile roofs, ridge caps with cracked mortar drop, and field tiles slide.
After a windy night, walk the yard. Pieces of shingle or tile on the ground tell you which side of the house took the hit.
How We Tarp a Wind Damaged Roof
We cover the open area and well past it, then fasten the tarp with wood strips so the next gust cannot get under it. A loose tarp flapping in a Fontana wind can tear more off than the storm did. We photograph the damage before it is covered.
Insurance and the Next Step
Sudden wind damage is often covered by home insurance. Wear and age usually are not. We give you photos and a written description so your adjuster has what they need. Once the roof is dry, we give you a written price for the repair.
