A roof opened by fire, storm, fallen tree or structural failure exposes the entire building to weather, animals and unauthorized entry, and every hour it stays open multiplies the damage below. Restotech responds around the clock to secure the opening, protect the interior and stabilize the property so mitigation and reconstruction can proceed on a controlled schedule instead of an emergency one.
Crews first evaluate structural stability, because a compromised roof deck, weakened trusses or fire-damaged framing determine how the board up can be safely installed and whether shoring is required first. We then close the opening with properly sized structural panels, mechanically fastened to sound framing and sealed at the perimeter to shed water rather than trap it. Work is performed with appropriate fall protection, and utilities in the affected area are evaluated and isolated where necessary.
Emergency board up is a covered mitigation expense under most policies, and carriers expect it, because failure to protect the property from further damage can reduce a claim. We document the pre-existing condition, the emergency work performed and the materials used with photographs and a written scope, and we deliver that package to you and your adjuster. Temporary protection is maintained and inspected until permanent repairs are complete.
We proudly offer Emergency Roof Board Up in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA and nearby areas.
