Emergency roof repair is about containment first, permanent fix second. We secure the exposed area with a tarp or emergency sealant to stop active water intrusion. Then we assess the full extent of damage and schedule the permanent repair. Allentown Roofing & Maintenance has been responding to roof emergencies across Allentown for 16 years.
We carry everything needed for emergency roof repair on every truck: poly tarps in multiple sizes, 2x4 batten boards, cap nails, replacement shingles in common colors, step flashing, pipe boots, roofing sealant, and waterproof caulk. If your emergency requires materials we don't carry, we source them same-day from our supplier network in Allentown.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Emergency Call
Call (877) 586-1316 for immediate emergency dispatch. We prioritize based on severity — active water intrusion gets same-hour response. Our Allentown crews are on standby during storm season.
Tarp & Contain
Poly tarps secured with 2x4 battens and cap nails over all exposed areas. Active leak points sealed with roofing sealant. Loose or hanging shingles, flashing, and debris removed to prevent further damage in the next rain.
Full Inspection
Thorough damage assessment: how many shingles are missing or damaged, which flashing points failed, whether the underlayment is compromised, and whether the roof deck sheathing absorbed water. All documented with annotated photos for insurance.
Permanent Repair Scheduled
Permanent repair plan delivered with your insurance documentation. We replace every damaged component — shingles, underlayment, flashing, sheathing — to restore your roof to pre-damage condition. No patches, no shortcuts.
