Emergency Board-Up & Roof Tarping
When your home is open to the sky, or to anyone walking by, hours matter. We tarp roofs and board openings the same day, stabilize what's inside, and photograph everything so the emergency work itself feeds your claim.
What we do
Sealed, secured, and documented, today.
Insurance policies require homeowners to prevent further damage after a loss, but nobody hands you a crew to do it. That's us. One call puts professional temporary protection on your home and starts the paper trail your adjuster will ask for.
- Roof tarping: heavy-duty tarps anchored to shed water through the next storm, not just the next hour.
- Window & door board-up: cut-to-fit plywood securing every opening against weather and entry.
- Structural shoring: temporary support when trees or wind compromised framing.
- Water mitigation on the same truck: extraction and drying start the same visit when weather got inside.
- Full documentation: before/after photos and an itemized emergency invoice, formatted for your claim.
- The permanent fix, scheduled: tarps are a bridge; we book the real repair before we leave the driveway.
- Get people and pets clear of sagging ceilings, broken glass, and structural damage.
- Don't climb up to tarp it yourself, wet decking and hidden breaks put homeowners in the ER every storm season.
- Photograph the damage from safe ground before temporary repairs (your policy wants proof of the “before”).
- Call us: tarping and board-up are exactly the “reasonable steps to prevent further damage” your policy requires.
Then call us: (918) 340-2484. We answer 24/7 and walk you through it until the crew arrives.

Our process
Same-day protection, step by step
Speed with a system, because panicked improvisation is how second losses happen.
-
Call & triage
Where's the opening, is water actively entering, is the structure safe to work on. We dispatch on this call.
-
Safety sweep
Power, gas, structure, and access checked before anyone works, yours and ours.
-
Document the damage
Photos of every opening and impact before we cover it. Your claim needs the “before”, most homeowners lose it.
-
Tarp & board
Roof tarped, openings boarded, debris cleared from work zones. The house is weatherproof and secure tonight.
-
Stabilize inside
Standing water extracted, drying started, soaked materials triaged, the emergency stops compounding.
-
Plan the permanent fix
Repair scope drafted, claim guidance given, and the real work scheduled. A tarp is not a solution; it's a promise.
What to expect
How fast, and how long does it hold?
The two questions everyone asks from the driveway.
Response
Most Rogers County and Tulsa-metro calls get tarped or boarded the day you call, weather allowing.
Tarp lifespan
Professionally anchored tarps ride out repeat storms while the claim processes, and we re-check them after big weather.
Permanent repair
The fix gets scheduled the same visit. Tarps buy time; they shouldn't buy months.
Every loss is different. These are honest typical ranges, not promises. We'll give you a written scope and schedule for your home after the first walkthrough.
Insurance
We speak insurance, so you don't have to.
Emergency protection is almost always a covered cost when the underlying loss is covered, carriers would rather pay for a tarp than a second interior loss. We invoice emergency work as its own itemized line so it flows cleanly through your claim, and our before/after photos protect you from any “pre-existing damage” argument later.
