Roof Tarp Protection for your home in Lincolnwood or Morton Grove

Posted on: November 10th, 2014

If your roof is damaged and in need of repairs then a roof tarp offers a temporary solution until proper repairs can be carried out. Working on a roof can be dangerous and is best left to people who know what they are doing.

For professional roof tarping in Chicago, Lincolnwood, Morton Grove, Niles and Skokie you can contact the restoration team at A Emergency.  . They have roof tarps suited for all kinds of roofs, including in, tiles, shingles and asbestos.  After a storm your roof can be compromised and exposed. A damaged roof cannot provide adequate protection against the elements and alos poses a security risk.  Permanent repairs might not be possible immediately and in such cases a roof tarp can ave your home from further damage.

Professional roofers know how to install and attach roof tarps, whether intended for a few days or a few weeks. They know where on an up-slope the tarp should be attached so water can’t get under it and how to secure it so that the wind does not blow it off.  Simply pacing weights on a tarp to try and hold it in place is foolish and dangerous. A Emergency has expert roofers who will attach and fasten a roof tarp that will protect you and your home until proper repairs can be carried out.

Roof tarps come in different shapes and sizes such as hurricane tarps, light weight polyethylene tarps and heavy duty polyethylene tarps. A good roof tarp should be cost effective, waterproof, mildew resistant, strong and durable, tear resistant and easy to secure.

Some types of roof tarp don’t require ropes and can still cover large areas. Modern day roof tarps are often light weight but still strong and durable.  A professionally installed roof tarp will also be free of wind noise and won’t cause secondary damage.

Flood Restoration Emergency Plan for Home Restoration Services in Lincolnwood, Niles & Chicago

No one wants to have to deal with home restoration after a flood. But sometimes you simply have to take the bull by its horns. In these situations, it is useful to know what are the most important things to do if your house becomes flooded and you need the assistance of a flood restoration expert in Lincolnwood and the surrounding areas of Chicago.

Water infiltrates quickly in the queerest places; it destroys furniture, clothes, floors, etc. Therefore, it is vital that you eliminate water from your house as soon as possible, before it causes further damage. A-Emergency is here to help if you find yourself in the need of flood restoration in Lincolnwood, Morton Grove, Skokie and more of the surrounding local areas.

Here is a short list of top things to do immediately after a flood:

  1. Leave everything aside and call your insurance agent as soon as possible. There may be some damage, but you don’t want to have to pay for it – that’s what your insurance is for. So call the agent and let them know that you will need flood restoration.
  2. Shut off any source of electricity in the house! This is utterly important as it can hurt you or those around you. Do not turn the electrical system on again until you are 100% sure that everything is dried out.
  3. Take water out of the house/building. Mud may have entered with the flood, so make sure you shovel out as much mud as possible. Do not let it become dry, because it will harden and it will be even more difficult for you to shovel out. If there is mud left on hard surfaces or in corners, use a garden sprayer or a hose to wash it away.
  4. If your furniture was affected, do not move it. Wait for the insurance agent to inspect the damage first, otherwise you may end up losing your home insurance coverage. By the way, if you have mattresses, sofas or other cloth households, consider getting rid of them. Once wet, they take a lot of time to dry and often grow mold. So consider them lost.
