Storm Damage & Emergency Tarping
24-hour response for active leaks, wind damage, and storm losses.
When a storm takes a chunk out of your roof, the first 24 hours matter most. NextGen HIG responds to storm damage across NJ, PA, and CT with same-day tarping for active leaks, documented damage reports for your insurance carrier, and permanent repairs scheduled as soon as materials and adjusters allow.
We know the NJ-PA-CT storm patterns — nor'easters, remnants of tropical systems, microburst wind events, and ice storms. Our tarping and emergency response crews carry heavy-mil tarps, battens, ice & water shield, and temporary flashing on every truck.
If you're filing an insurance claim, we document damage to carrier standards, meet adjusters on-site, and align our estimates to the insurance scope — so you're not stuck between the adjuster and a contractor who won't negotiate.
Every storm damage & emergency tarping project includes
24-Hour Tarping
Active-leak response with heavy-mil tarps battened to prevent further interior damage.
Photo Documentation
Before-tarp and post-tarp photos with timestamps — accepted by insurance carriers.
Insurance-Ready Estimates
Scope-aligned written estimates that match adjuster expectations.
Adjuster Meetings
We meet your insurance adjuster on-site and walk through the damage together.
Temporary Repairs
Board-ups, temporary siding, and flashing fixes to stabilize the home until permanent work.
Permanent Repair / Replacement
Full repair or replacement once insurance is approved — coordinated end-to-end.
Signs you need storm damage & emergency tarping
Catch these early and storm damage & emergency tarping repairs stay simple — ignore them and you're paying for interior damage on top of the exterior fix.
Missing or lifted shingles after high winds
Wind can lift shingles without removing them. Lifted tabs break seals and flap in future storms, driving water underneath. Visible damage warrants documentation before the next rain.
Hail bruising or granule loss
Hail leaves round bruises on shingles, circular spots of exposed mat, and concentrated granule loss in gutters. Often invisible from the ground — we inspect up close and document for claims.
Active interior leak during or after a storm
Any ceiling staining, dripping, or wet insulation after a storm is a leak emergency. Temporary tarping stops compounding damage while a permanent scope is approved.
Tree branches on the roof or visible impact damage
Tree strikes can crack decking, not just shingles. Get an inspection even if the tree was small — hidden deck damage leads to sagging rooflines within a year.
Damaged or torn-away gutters and downspouts
Wind and ice pull gutters off fascia. Beyond re-hanging, check for fascia damage and water intrusion behind the gutter line — often the more expensive problem.
Bent or displaced flashings, caps, or vents
Any flashing lifted out of place, any pipe boot torn, any ridge cap missing — these are immediate leak risks. Storm inspections document each as part of the claim.
