Active leak right now?
Skip the form. Call (249) 499-0101 and we will walk you through immediate containment while a crew is dispatched.
What to do in the first hour
Move people and valuables out from under the leak
Contain water with buckets and towels; poke a small drain hole in a bulging ceiling to release pooled water in a controlled spot.
Kill power to affected rooms if water is near fixtures
Water tracking along joists finds pot lights and junction boxes. When in doubt, flip the breaker.
Photograph everything
Interior damage, the ceiling, and the roof from the ground. Time-stamped photos taken before cleanup are gold for an insurance claim.
Stay off the roof
Wet shingles, wind, and hidden soft decking put homeowners in the ER every storm season. Tarping is our job, not yours.
Call us
Describe what you are seeing and you get an honest window on the phone. Stabilization is quoted separately from the permanent repair, so you are never buying more than you need.
Storms we get called for
Around Georgian Bay the emergencies come in seasons: wind events off the bay that strip shingle tabs and peel back ridge caps, summer downbursts that drop limbs through decking, and midwinter thaws that turn a month of packed snow into an ice-dam leak in an afternoon. All three get the same treatment from us: stop the water first, document everything for insurance, and separate the emergency work from the permanent repair so each is quoted clearly.
After stabilization, the permanent fix is a normal roof repair or, when the storm finished off an already tired roof, a replacement. We give you the honest read on which it is, with photos to back it up. If the damage went past the shingles into framing or trusses, the repair is structural, and that is the point where a building permit enters the picture. We flag it and handle that step when it applies.

Emergency repair questions
How fast can you get here? +
Active leaks and storm damage are triaged ahead of everything scheduled, and you get an honest window on the phone rather than a promise nobody has checked the board for. Call rather than using the form for anything urgent.
Will insurance cover my roof damage? +
Sudden storm damage, wind, hail, and fallen trees are typically covered perils; gradual wear is not. Document everything before any cleanup happens — photographs taken before stabilization are the single most useful thing for your claim, and a written scope is what your adjuster wants to see.
What does emergency tarping cost? +
Typically $350 to $800 depending on roof access and the area to cover. If your insurer accepts the claim, emergency mitigation is usually a covered cost, since it prevents further damage.
Snow and ice are forcing water into the house. Is that an emergency you handle? +
Yes. Ice-dam backups are one of the most common winter calls here. We remove the snow load above the dam, cut relief channels safely, and stop the active leak, then recommend the permanent fix, which is usually ventilation and membrane work, once the roof is dry.
Storm damage does not wait.
