Emergency Roof Repair in Maplewood
When a limb punches through the decking or a storm peels shingles back to bare underlayment, the next few hours decide whether you’re fixing a roof or a roof plus two ceilings. Summit Roofing answers after-hours calls in Maplewood for exactly that window. We’re about 25 minutes out, and we arrive with tarps, battens, and lights, not a business card.
What an Emergency Visit Does
The first job is making the water stop. That means heavy tarps anchored with battens over the ridge (never nailed flat mid-slope, which just makes new holes), plastic staged inside if the ceiling is already wet, and photographs of everything before and after. The documentation matters later, whether the fix turns out to be a simple repair or part of a storm damage claim you choose to file. The permanent repair gets scheduled in daylight and decent weather, priced in writing first.
What Counts as an Emergency
Active dripping, daylight visible through the roof, a tree strike, or shingles gone down to the felt after high wind. A slow stain that’s been there for weeks can wait for a standard leak repair visit, which costs less and gets the same careful eyes.
