3 Ways to Handle Emergency Roof Repairs in Winter

With winter almost here, it’s important to address any problems your home might have. Why not focus on your roofing system, a large component that is crucial in protecting your living spaces from extreme weather damage? Any issue your roof might have can worsen during the colder months, so make sure to deal with them promptly. WaynCo Roofing, your premier expert in roof repair, shares how you can handle emergency roof repairs during winter.

  1. Safety comes first. Keeping your family out of harm’s way should be your top priority. In the event of major roof damage, move them to a safer spot. You can then proceed in mitigating further damage to your living spaces. If the roof damage has resulted in leaks, for example, place buckets under the dripping ceiling. Cover your valuables, or move them elsewhere, to keep them dry and intact.
  1. Turn the power off. To ensure better safety against accidents and other damage, it’s best to shut off the electricity in areas of your home that has suffered the most damage.
  1. Check the extent of roof damage. Do this only when the worst of the winter storm has come and gone. Be especially careful when inspecting your roof. In fact, it’s better to survey the damage from a high window using a pair of binoculars instead of climbing onto the roof surface, where you risk slipping and falling. Once you’ve documented the damage, which you can then use if you need to file a roof insurance claim, call a dependable contractor like WaynCo Roofing for emergency roof services.
