Things to remember in a roofing emergency
In the case of a roofing emergency, make sure you remember these three points
- Don't go up on the roof yourself: A damaged roof is a dangerous environment, and you should let a properly insured and equipped professional be the first to check it out.
- Cover the interior: Using plastic sheeting will protect the interior of your home and help prevent leaks.
- Inspect the roof visually: From the ground, take a visual inspection of your roof to note debris and possible damage.
