Our Emergency Board-up & Tarping Services

The answer always is “Yes We Can Help.”

Storms have damaged my home. What do I need to do?


We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week for our customers. We will respond immediately to assess damage needing a temporary repair. If additional damage has occurred due to Water Damage, Fire Damage, or vandalism, we will do everything necessary to protect your home and business by providing emergency water removal, structural drying, preservation of contents, and temporary power. We do everything necessary to protect your home or business from the elements and further damage.

Storms can cause a lot of damage in a very short amount of time. Roofs can easily be damaged by heavy storms, winds, tree branches, fires caused by lightning strikes hail and improper installation. If any of these unfortunate events create the need for a temporary solution, a roof tarp is a great option and is often the only option until the damage can be fully assessed. Also, keep in mind that water damage can occur inside the home or business during the event.

Purpose Of Tarping & Boarding-Up

  • Cover and protect any damaged area of your roof.
  • Keep rodents and other unwanted guests from entering your home or business.
  • Protect your roof from further damage from heavy storms or winds.
  • Prevent further damage while waiting for a roofer or the insurance adjuster.

Can We Do It Ourselves?

Emergency Boarding

When your window breaks in the middle of the night or a tree knocks a hole in the side of your house, it’s going to be hard to sleep, knowing that anyone and anything now has free access to your home. That’s why emergency board-ups are so important. ServiceMaster Restoration by Advanced will board up any new entry points into your home to prevent your home receiving further damage from thieves, weather, animals, and even the peering eyes of neighbors.

  • Do not leave your home unattended once it is safe to return.
