Every hour a damaged roof sits exposed, the damage spreads. Water reaches the underlayment, soaks the sheathing, wets the insulation, and stains the ceiling. A $500 repair becomes a $5,000 repair. Fort Johnson Roofing & Maintenance's emergency crew stops the progression by tarping and sealing the same day you call.
Ice dam emergencies happen in NY winters. Ice builds up along the eave, backs water under the shingles, and leaks into the soffit, fascia, and interior walls. Fort Johnson Roofing & Maintenance removes the ice dam, installs emergency ice-and-water shield where possible, and schedules a permanent fix with proper eave protection for next winter.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Emergency Call
Call (877) 586-1316 for immediate emergency dispatch. We prioritize based on severity โ active water intrusion gets same-hour response. Our Fort Johnson crews are on standby during storm season.
Tarp & Contain
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 โ stop the water, stabilize the damage.
Full Inspection
Thorough damage assessment: how many shingles are missing or damaged, which flashing points failed, whether the underlayment is compromised, and whether the roof deck sheathing absorbed water. All documented with annotated photos for insurance.
Fix It Right
Permanent repair plan delivered with your insurance documentation. We replace every damaged component โ shingles, underlayment, flashing, sheathing โ to restore your roof to pre-damage condition. No patches, no shortcuts.
