Don’t let roof problems get worse. Call G.R.M. Roofing today for prompt, reliable roof repairs in Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey.
Water is coming through the ceiling, and it's 10 at night. What you do in the next hour can decide how big the repair bill gets. The first job is protecting the inside of your home. The second is getting the roof covered.
G.R.M Roofing offers emergency roof repair across Ocean County, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We tarp damaged roofs, stop active leaks, and make permanent repairs once the weather allows. We have a licensed electrician on staff for roofs with solar panels. Our family-owned crew does the work, with no subcontractors. Call (609) 389-2485 any time, day or night.
What to Do in the First Hour
Before anyone climbs a ladder, take care of these three things. They protect your home and your claim.
Protect the Inside
Put buckets under drips and move furniture, rugs, and electronics out of the way. If a ceiling bulges with water, keep people and pets out from under it. If water is near lights or outlets, stay clear. Shut off power to that area at the breaker only if you can do it safely. Our guide on how to slow a roof leak while you wait has more tips.
Stay Off the Roof
Wet shingles are slick, and storm wind is unpredictable, especially in the dark. Leave the roof to a crew with safety gear and the right ladders. A tarp that isn't fastened right can also blow off and make the damage worse.
Take Photos and Save Receipts
Photograph the ceiling, the attic, and any damage you can see from the ground. Most homeowners policies expect you to protect the home from further damage and keep records of what you spend. Read more about a policyholder's duty to protect the property.
Is It an Emergency or Can It Wait?
Not every stain needs a midnight call, and knowing the difference saves you stress. Here's how to sort it out. Our post on when to make the emergency call goes deeper.
Call Right Away
Call now for an active leak, a tree or large limb on the roof, or a section of roof that's missing. A ceiling that sags or bulges is also an emergency. So is water running near wiring or light fixtures.
It Can Usually Wait for Morning
An old, dry stain with no new water can usually wait for a daytime visit. So can a few missing shingles when no rain is on the way. Call during office hours and we'll set up a visit. See these warning signs that need fast attention for more examples.
Leaks That Only Show Up in Wind
If water only comes in during windy rain, the cause is often flashing at a chimney, wall, or skylight. It may stop when the wind does, but it will come back with the next storm. See our roof flashing repair service.
What Happens When You Call
Emergencies here follow the weather. Knowing the pattern helps you get ready.
Nor'easters
Nor'easters can hit from fall through spring. They bring hours of wind-driven rain that finds weak spots other storms miss. Damage often shows up as a ceiling stain a day or two later. Learn how to spot wind damage after a nor'easter.
Summer Thunderstorms and Tropical Storms
Summer storms are shorter but can drop limbs and heavy rain in minutes. Homes under tall trees see the most damage. Late summer and fall can also bring the remains of tropical storms up the coast.
Quick Checks Before a Storm
Clear your gutters, trim limbs that hang over the roof, and tie down loose outdoor furniture. Then take a few photos of the roof from the ground. Those photos show what it looked like before the storm. Save our number in your phone so you're not searching for it in the dark.
Emergencies Most Roofers Don't Plan For
A few situations need more than a tarp and a ladder. Here's how we handle them.
Leaks Under Solar Panels
You can't fix a leak under an array without moving some panels. Our in-house licensed electrician can safely disconnect them. Then our crew fixes the leak and puts the panels back. See our solar panel detach and reset service.
Empty Shore Houses
If a storm hits while your shore house is empty, a leak can run for weeks. Have someone check in after big storms, and give them our number. Our roof checklist for closing a shore house explains how to set that up.
What to Expect After Hours
Our regular office hours are Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 7 PM. Emergency calls are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Read more about our 24-hour emergency roofing services.
Storm Season on the Jersey Shore
Here's what our process looks like, from the first call to the final fix
Tarping and Temporary Repairs
First we stop the water. That may mean a tarp over the damaged area or a temporary seal. The goal is to keep the inside of your home dry until the permanent fix. Learn about our emergency roof tarping service and what happens after you call for a tarp.
Photos and a Written Estimate
Once the roof is covered, we document the damage with photos. You get a written estimate for the permanent fix, and you can share the photos with your insurer. Keep them with your own photos and receipts in one place.
Permanent Repairs
We make permanent repairs when the weather allows. Shingles need dry conditions to go on right, so a tarp may need to stay a few days. For storm and wind damage, see our storm damage roof repair page. For other leaks, see our roof repair service.
