What Exactly Is a Roofing Emergency?

Let's clear this up first. Not every roof issue needs a midnight phone call. An **emergency roof repair** is all about stopping immediate, ongoing damage to your home's structure and interior. It's a stabilization fix, not the final, pretty solution. We're talking about actions to make your home safe and dry *right now*.

This Is a Real Emergency (Call Now)

• A large section of your roof is missing or visibly collapsed.
• Water is pouring (not just dripping) through your ceiling, light fixtures, or walls.
• A tree or large limb has crashed through your roof.
• After a storm, you see daylight coming through your attic boards.
• Significant wind has lifted or peeled back entire rows of shingles, exposing the decking.

After the heavy hail Lone Star saw last spring, many homes in the Creekview area had exactly this happen—granules gone, shingles cracked, and water started finding its way in fast.

This Can Probably Wait for Normal Hours

• A single, isolated shingle is missing.
• A minor, slow drip from a single spot during a rainstorm that you can catch in a bucket.
• Granules in your gutters (though this means your roof is aging and needs an inspection).

Why Lone Star's Climate Is Tough on Roofs

Our local weather creates a perfect storm for roof wear. We face intense summer heat that can bake and dry out asphalt shingles on south-facing slopes. Then, we get those sudden, powerful thunderstorms with hail that can bruise and crack shingles, and wind that tests every seam. In the older, charming bungalows near downtown Lone Star, you might find original wood shingle roofs that are particularly vulnerable to this cycle of heat and moisture. In newer builds in neighborhoods like Stone Creek, modern architectural shingles hold up better but aren't invincible. The constant expansion and contraction from our temperature swings, plus UV exposure, shortens the lifespan of any material. Knowing your roof's weak points helps you spot trouble early.

Understanding the Costs of Emergency Roof Care

We believe in transparency. Emergency services have different costs than a scheduled repair because they require immediate mobilization, often after hours or on weekends.

Typical Emergency Service Costs in Our Area

• Emergency Call-Out / Trip Fee: This covers the immediate dispatch of our team and assessment. In the Lone Star area, this typically ranges from $150 to $400, depending on time of day and severity.
• Emergency Roof Tarping: This is our first line of defense. We use heavy-duty, waterproof tarps secured with wooden battens to seal the damaged area. Cost is usually priced by the square foot of tarp needed and the difficulty of the install. For a standard patch, homeowners might expect between $200 and $800. A complex, high-pitch, or large-area tarping job will be more.
• After-Hours Premium: Services between 7 PM and 7 AM or on major holidays may incur an additional labor premium.

Important Note on Insurance: Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, accidental damage like storm damage roof repair. The cost of emergency tarping and mitigation to prevent further loss is often a covered part of your claim. We work directly with adjusters and provide detailed documentation and photos to support your claim.

When to Pick Up the Phone and Call a Pro

If you're wondering, "When should I call an emergency roofer?" trust your gut. If you feel unsafe, if water is actively causing damage, or if the structural integrity seems compromised, call. It's always better to have a professional assess the situation. A common question we get is, "Can you get a roofer out today?" For true emergencies, our answer is always yes. Our standard response time in the Lone Star city limits is between 60 and 120 minutes. We have crews staged to respond quickly to calls from Creekview, Heritage Ranch, Stone Creek, and the downtown area.

Your Safety-First Checklist While You Wait

Once you've called Lone Star Emergency Roofing at (888) 509-1520, here's what to do—and what NOT to do—to stay safe.

DO:

• Move valuables, furniture, and area rugs away from leaks.
• Place buckets or large containers under active drips.
• Punch a small hole in the center of a sagging ceiling bulge to relieve water pressure and prevent a catastrophic collapse.
• Take photos and videos of the damage for your insurance company.
• Keep children and pets away from the affected area.

DO NOT:

• DO NOT CLIMB ONTO YOUR ROOF. A damaged or wet roof is extremely slippery and unstable. This is how severe injuries happen.
• Do not touch or approach downed power lines that may be near roof debris.
• Do not attempt permanent repairs yourself. Our emergency team is trained and equipped for safe, temporary stabilization.

Navigating Lone Star Rules and Getting Permits

Once the emergency is stabilized, the permanent repair or replacement begins. For most major repairs or full replacements in Lone Star, the city requires a building permit. This ensures the work meets current building codes for wind resistance and materials. As your local roofing partner, we handle the entire permit process for you, from application to scheduling the final city inspection. For historic homes or major structural damage, a structural engineer's report may be required before a permit is issued—we can guide you through that process as well.
