How fast can you arrive for an emergency?

We aim for 1-2 hour response in the Indianapolis metro area depending on current demand and crew availability. During major storm events, response times may extend, but we prioritize by severity. Call immediately and we'll provide an accurate estimate.

What does emergency tarping cost?

As a general industry range, emergency tarping costs $300-$800 depending on roof size, damage complexity, and accessibility. Many homeowners insurance policies cover emergency tarping. We provide quotes before work begins.

Does homeowners insurance cover emergency roof repair?

Most homeowners insurance covers emergency repairs from covered perils like storms, falling objects, or wind damage, minus your deductible. We document damage professionally to support your claim.

How long does temporary tarping last?

Tarping is a temporary solution lasting 1-4 weeks depending on weather. We recommend permanent repairs within 7-14 days to prevent water damage and secondary issues.

Should I turn off electricity if the roof is leaking inside?

If water is dripping near electrical fixtures, turn off power to those circuits if safe to do so. If you're unsure, evacuate and call emergency services. Once the roof is tarped, water will stop, and our crews can assess electrical safety.

Know the Signs

When to Call for Emergency Roof Repair

Not every roof issue requires emergency service, but some do. Call immediately if: your roof is visibly damaged (missing shingles, sagging sections), water is actively dripping inside, you hear loud creaking or cracking, you see debris scattered from your roof, or storm damage has exposed wood or interior framing. Delaying can allow water damage to spread, compromising walls, ceilings, insulation, and structural integrity. A prompt professional assessment protects your property.

Our Process

Immediate Emergency Response & Tarping

When you call, the office schedules an assessment, and can arrange a same-day visit in urgent cases. Our emergency crews arrive with tarping materials, temporary bracing equipment, and assessment tools. We secure your roof with heavy-duty tarps to stop water infiltration, brace any damaged sections, and stabilize loose or hanging materials. All temporary work is documented with photos. You'll receive a detailed damage assessment and restoration plan before we leave.

Restoration

Temporary Fixes vs. Permanent Restoration

Emergency tarping and bracing are temporary solutions designed to protect your property for days or weeks, not months. We always recommend permanent repair or replacement within 7-14 days to prevent water infiltration and secondary damage. Once weather stabilizes, we return for permanent repairs: replacing shingles, fixing flashing, repairing structural damage, and restoring full weatherproofing. We work with your insurance adjuster to ensure coverage for both temporary and permanent work.

Claims Support

Insurance Claims & Documentation

We document all emergency damage with professional photography and detailed notes. Our crews photograph the damage before and after temporary repairs, and we provide this documentation to your insurance company. We coordinate directly with adjusters, answer technical questions, and can attend claim inspections. Many emergency repairs are fully covered by homeowners insurance, with only your deductible due out-of-pocket.

What Our Customers Say

Wayne H.

“SPG Roofing & Exteriors was instrumental in assisting us with obtaining commercial grade windows for our house after storm damage. It wouldn’t have happened without the expertise and perseverance of Chris Sheets and AJ Grady. They are truly knowledgeable professionals who care about their customers. I highly recommend SPG for any roofing or exterior needs.”

Brian C.

“We contracted with SPG Roofing to fix up our place after a hail storm in March ’21 wreaked havoc on our home in Westfield. It literally looked like the front of our house was shot up with a Tommy gun. We first met with Jackson, the SPG Sales Associate. The sales guys with the other contractors were the slimiest car-salesman types – but Jackson was forthright, honest, earnest, and just so helpful. He gave us some pro tips on upgrading our siding for a more modern look. He also helped us haggle with the insurance company to get full roof, siding, trim, paint, and gutter replacement. The initial insurance payment went from $1,900 to nearly $40k to pay for the storm damage. We couldn’t have negotiated that kind of return without the help of Jackson – he is a true professional.”

“I recently moved into my Franklin home and have contracted several companies for home improvements. Due to the tornadoes in the area in late March, I had roof damage and needed quick assessment to avoid more interior damage. I called Grady Phillips at SPG as they did the roof replacement on my previous home. By that afternoon, my roof was tarped to prevent more damage. Grady and the team worked with my insurance company to get me coverage for a complete roof replacement. They completed the project within a few weeks. Jordan, the on-site manager, answered all my questions and kept me fully informed. The construction team was respectful and quick. I am very happy with the whole process and my new roof. They have been the best home repair company that I have worked with this year.”
