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. Memphis Roofing & Maintenance has been responding to roof emergencies across Memphis for 18 years.
Our emergency response follows a clear sequence. Step one: tarp the exposed area to stop water entry. Step two: remove immediate debris — branches, loose shingles, dislodged flashing. Step three: inspect the full extent of damage to the shingles, underlayment, roof deck, and flashing system. Step four: perform emergency patches where permanent repair isn't immediately possible.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Rapid Response
Call (877) 586-1316 for immediate emergency dispatch. We prioritize based on severity — active water intrusion gets same-hour response. Our Memphis crews are on standby during storm season.
Stop the Water
Emergency tarping and sealing. We cover exposed sheathing, plug active leak points, and remove any debris that could cause additional damage. The goal is containment — stop the water, stabilize the damage.
Damage Assessment
Full inspection of the damage zone and surrounding area. Storm damage often extends beyond the obvious — we check for loosened flashing, cracked shingles, and compromised sealant that may not be visible but will fail in the next storm.
Permanent Repair Scheduled
We schedule the permanent repair within days. Blown-off shingles replaced, damaged flashing rebuilt, compromised underlayment and sheathing replaced. The emergency patch holds while we source materials and schedule the crew for a full restoration.
