Leaks, tarping and storm damage
Emergency Roof Repair in Santa Barbara When Water Is Coming In
Water through the ceiling, a tile gone after a storm, a branch on the roof. Call and we come out, stop the water, and then fix the roof properly.
We answer the phone or call back the same working day, every day of the week.
The short answer
Emergency roof repair in Santa Barbara
Emergency roof repair in Santa Barbara stops the water coming in now: we assess and photograph the damage, tarp or seal the area, and then make the permanent repair.
The quick fix comes ahead of everything else, even when it is only a short-term cover, because rain through an open roof keeps soaking the ceiling, the insulation and the "roof deck" under it. Once the water is held out, on a home or a commercial building, the job moves to the real fix at the spot that failed.
What an emergency visit includes
You come away from an emergency roof repair visit with a dry house for now and a written plan for what happens next.
-
Assessment and photos
From the stain inside to the leak on the roof, recorded before anything is covered.
-
Tarping or sealing
Temporary cover over the exposed area until the permanent repair can be made.
-
Storm damage noted
Lifted tile, torn shingles and open "flashing" written down with the photos.
-
Plan and estimate
An itemized written estimate for the permanent repair, free and with no obligation.
Pricing
How emergency roof repair is priced
Emergency work is priced on the stabilizing work done on the day and the permanent repair that follows, and access and timing can add to it.
- Size of the damage. A few lifted tiles cost less to cover and fix than an open slope.
- How far the water got. Wet "underlayment" or a soaked deck raises the repair.
- Roof material. Tile takes more care to lift and reset than shingle.
- Access. A steep pitch, an upper story or a tight lot adds setup.
- Timing. A same-day call in the middle of a storm can add to the cost.
We quote the whole job before we start, with no surprise charges after.

Tarping until the permanent repair
A tarp is temporary protection only, and it has to be followed by a permanent repair.
Temporary "tarping" covers the exposed area and keeps the next rain out while the roof waits for its fix. It holds water off; it does not replace a cracked tile, reseal a split "pipe boot" or dry out wet paper under the tile. That is why our emergency roof repair visit always ends with a plan for the real repair.

Staying safe until we arrive
You should leave the roof to us and keep everyone clear of the hazards inside until we get there.
- Stay off a wet, damaged or unstable roof, even to lay a tarp yourself.
- Keep clear of a sagging ceiling, which may be holding trapped water or hiding structural damage.
- Shut off power to any area under an active leak to prevent shocks.
Storm damage that cannot wait
Storm damage that lets water into the house is an emergency, while lifted tile or shingles that are still shedding water can wait for a scheduled repair.
Storm damage is often not visible from the ground, so if you cannot tell which side of that line you are on, call and we will look.

Insurance usually covers sudden storm damage rather than normal wear, and the insurer decides what it pays.
Coverage, approval and payment are between you and your insurer. What we hand you is the photos and findings from the emergency roof repair visit, a clear record of the damage to send in.

Top notch - Serjio and his team was an absolute pleasure to work with. They were always on time and the most polite and pleasant contractors we have ever had. The whole team went out of the way to make the time at our home as comfortable as possible. I would highly recommend his company.
Thank you. titan roofing I highly recommend them to everybody Five stars all the way
I called Titan Roofing & Rain Gutters inc.for a quote on a residential home, and within minutes they were calling me back and setting up a same day appointment. Sergio came out within the hour and was very professional. He looked everything over and even gave me some great advice in case we ever do experience any leaks. He didn't even have the job but was still willing to help me out.
