It's a response service, and the response time is the service. ### Who it's for Anyone with an active roof problem right now: water coming through a ceiling, tiles blown off, a chimney stack leaning, a caravan struck by a tree, a landlord with a distressed tenant call. Domestic, commercial and out-of-hours. ### When you need it The moment you see daylight through a ceiling, hear tiles hitting the ground, notice a chimney out of plumb, or find water pooling upstairs. Speed matters, a covered roof stops damage; a bare roof compounds it hour by hour. ### Why it matters The cost of the first four hours dwarfs the cost of the following four days. A prompt make-safe protects electrics, plaster, flooring and contents; an ignored leak destroys ceilings, cabling and joists. What happens if it's ignored ## Small problems don't stay small. A roof issue left alone compounds quickly. Water tracks, timber rots, and repair scope escalates by season. Here's what we see when a customer waits. ### Delayed response worsens damage exponentially For every hour a roof stays open in wet weather, the internal damage roughly doubles. Ceilings that would dry are lost; wiring that would test fine is scrapped. ### 'National' companies that can't send a roofer Many advertised '24/7 emergency roofers' are call-centres subcontracting to whichever local trade answers first. Response times run to days. Ours is under two hours, staffed by our own team. ### Insurance disputes over untimely mitigation Insurers can reduce settlements where a policyholder failed to take reasonable steps to limit damage. A prompt make-safe with a dated photograph is the cheapest possible defence against that. ### DIY tarpaulins that fail overnight A tarp thrown over a roof and weighed down with bricks lifts in the next gust and pushes water further into the structure. Proper make-safe uses battened, tensioned covers fixed to sound structure.

The make-safe holds until we do the permanent repair. The detail ## Materials, methods and where they apply. An emergency roofing call is a race between water and time. Below is how we handle the most common emergencies we get called to across Yorkshire. Areas covered York, Scarborough, Filey, Bridlington, Pickering, Malton, Beverley, Selby, Hull, see all locations ### Storm and wind damage High winds, Yorkshire regularly sees named storms with 60mph+ gusts on the coast, lift ridge tiles, tear off flashings and strip verges. Our response is: secure loose material, weather-cover the exposed area with battened polythene, clear gutters of debris, and photograph for your insurer. ### Active leaks and internal water damage Water tracking through a ceiling is often already a lot worse in the loft. First move: contain interior water and identify the entry point. Then: cover from above, mop-up in the loft, and drop compromised ceiling sections in a controlled way to prevent uncontrolled collapse. ### Chimney stacks, leaning, cracked or struck A leaning stack is a life-safety issue. We assess from a scaffold platform, take the stack down to a safe course where required, cap the flue, and re-cover the abutment. Rebuild happens on a scheduled follow-up. ### Fallen trees and impact damage Where a tree or branch has struck a roof, priority one is stabilising the structure, priority two is weather cover, priority three is documentation. We coordinate with tree surgeons and insurers directly where needed. Immediate, secure the site, remove danger - Same-day, weather cover, condition report, photos to insurer - 48–72 hrs, written repair quote - Booked repair, full reinstatement to spec ### Commercial emergencies, factories, shops, offices For commercial premises we prioritise minimising trading disruption alongside the roof itself. We can attend outside business hours, coordinate with your facilities manager or insurer, and phase the permanent repair around your opening pattern. ### Insurance and evidence Every emergency call produces a dated, photographed condition report, cause of damage, extent, make-safe measures taken, materials used. Loss adjusters accept our reports directly, and many customers have us liaise with the insurer on their behalf. FAQ ## Straight answers, no waffle. How fast can you actually get to me?+Within 2 hours anywhere across York, North Yorkshire and East Riding, 24 hours a day. That's a promise we keep, not marketing wording, call and time us. Is there a call-out fee?+No. We don't charge for turning up in an emergency. You only pay for the make-safe and the permanent repair, both fixed-priced in writing. How much does emergency roof cover cost?+A typical make-safe with battened weather cover on a single fault sits between £250–£550 depending on access and extent. Full storm response involving structural stabilisation is quoted after site inspection. Do you work at night?+Yes. Where the damage is life-safety critical or the weather is actively worsening, we work through the night. Where the risk allows, we make-safe by torchlight and complete permanent work in daylight. Will you help with my insurance claim?+Yes. Every emergency call generates a written condition report and dated photographs suitable for a loss-adjuster claim, at no extra cost. We can liaise with your insurer directly if you'd like us to. Do you cover the whole of Yorkshire?+Yes, anywhere across North Yorkshire & East Riding, from York to the coast and down to Hull. If you're on the fringe of our patch, phone anyway, we'll tell you honestly whether we can reach you inside our 2-hour promise. Can you make-safe if I'm not at home?+Yes, in most cases. We photograph the exterior and post the report through the door. For interior access we ask a neighbour or agent to be present, insurers usually require it. Is the make-safe watertight overnight?+Yes, properly battened weather cover, correctly tensioned and fixed into sound structure, is watertight for weeks if needed. It buys the time to plan the permanent repair without further damage.
