Emergency Repairs

2 AM or 2 PM - When Your Roof Fails, We're Already Moving

When a roofing emergency strikes - whether it's a fallen tree, sudden leak, or severe storm damage - Commit Roofing is ready around the clock. Our emergency team responds quickly to secure your property, minimize interior damage, and begin permanent repairs.

What's Included

  • 24/7 emergency availability
  • Emergency tarping and boarding
  • Same-day response
  • Water intrusion mitigation
  • Temporary weatherproofing
  • Seamless transition to full repair

When It Can't Wait Until Morning

A tree through the roof at midnight. Active water pouring into your living room during a storm. Wind that peeled back an entire roof section. These aren't problems you schedule - they require immediate response. Commit Roofing's emergency crew covers all of Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, and Denton counties, around the clock. When you call, a person answers.

True Emergencies vs. Urgent-but-Schedulable

Situations that need an emergency crew now:

  • Fallen tree or large branch with active structural breach
  • Water actively flowing into living spaces
  • Blown-off roofing sections leaving deck exposed
  • Sagging, water-saturated ceiling at risk of collapse

Situations we'll get to fast (within 24–48 hours) but don't warrant an emergency dispatch: single missing shingle in dry weather, old dry ceiling stain, granules in gutters, flashing separation with no rain forecast.

What Happens When We Arrive

Safety assessment first - structural hazards, exposed electrical, unstable debris. Then professional tarping: not just throwing a tarp over the hole, but securing it against wind uplift, routing water to discharge properly, and photographing everything before and after for your insurance claim. For tree impacts, we coordinate plywood boarding of the deck breach and work with tree removal services as needed. Every emergency response is documented with photos and a written summary ready for your adjuster.

Seamless Transition to Permanent Repair

Because we performed the emergency response and have all the documentation, there is no hand-off cost when permanent repair work begins. We already know your property, have the insurance relationship established, and can move directly into the repair scope - no starting over with a different contractor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you respond to a roofing emergency in the DFW area?
For active water intrusion or structural damage situations, our goal is to have a crew on-site within two to four hours throughout the core DFW metroplex. Response times can vary during major area-wide storm events when multiple emergency calls are coming in simultaneously - in those situations, we triage by severity and keep you informed of estimated arrival time. We staff our emergency team to handle concurrent calls during severe storm events.
What should I do while waiting for your emergency crew to arrive?
First and most importantly, stay safe - do not walk on or near the damaged area if there is any risk of structural collapse or if the roof is wet and steep. Inside, place buckets or containers under active drips and move valuables, furniture, and electronics away from the affected area. If large amounts of water are entering, lay down towels or plastic sheeting to protect flooring. Do not attempt to climb on your roof yourself to install a tarp - this is a leading cause of serious injuries and is best left to trained crews with proper fall protection.
Does insurance cover emergency tarping costs?
Yes - emergency tarping performed to mitigate further damage from a covered loss is typically covered under the 'reasonable measures to protect property' provision of most homeowner's insurance policies. The key requirements are that the underlying damage event is covered (storm damage, hail, tree fall) and that the tarping cost is documented and reasonable. We provide itemized invoices specifically formatted for insurance submission, and we have extensive experience getting tarping costs included in storm damage claim settlements.
A tree fell on my roof last night - what do I do first?
Call us immediately. While you are waiting, stay out of the rooms beneath the impact area if there is any doubt about ceiling stability, and document the damage with your phone camera from a safe vantage point. Do not attempt to remove the tree yourself - tree removal from a damaged roof is a specialized skill that requires coordination between arborists and roofers to avoid causing additional structural damage during the removal process. We coordinate tree removal and roofing repair together as part of our emergency response.
How long can a properly installed emergency tarp protect my roof?
A professionally installed emergency tarp with proper wind-securing and water routing can protect your roof reliably for two to four weeks under normal weather conditions. DFW's storm potential means we always aim to schedule permanent repairs as quickly as possible - generally within one to two weeks of emergency tarping. Extended tarping beyond a month carries increasing risk of tarp failure, particularly in high UV conditions or if another storm event occurs. We communicate honestly about tarp limitations and keep permanent repair scheduling a priority.
