Emergency commercial roof repair: what happens in the first 48 hours

A leak over inventory or a tenant suite is a different job than a planned replacement. The first goal is to stop water, the second is to document, and the repair decision comes last.

Stop the water

Temporary dry-in or tarping is performed by a licensed roofer. Interior protection, buckets and moving stock happen at the same time.

Document before anything is torn off

Photos of the roof, the interior and the damage source. If an insurance claim is likely, those photos matter more than anything else on the job.

Decide repair or replace

After the area is dry, the roofer reports on the system's condition. The decision depends on age, membrane type and how much of the roof is affected.
