Every hour a damaged roof sits exposed, the damage spreads. Water reaches the underlayment, soaks the sheathing, wets the insulation, and stains the ceiling. A $500 repair becomes a $5,000 repair. Cohocton Roofing & Maintenance's emergency crew stops the progression by tarping and sealing the same day you call.
Ice dam emergencies happen in NY winters. Ice builds up along the eave, backs water under the shingles, and leaks into the soffit, fascia, and interior walls. Cohocton Roofing & Maintenance removes the ice dam, installs emergency ice-and-water shield where possible, and schedules a permanent fix with proper eave protection for next winter.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Call Us Now
Call (877) 586-1316 for immediate emergency dispatch. We prioritize based on severity — active water intrusion gets same-hour response. Our Cohocton crews are on standby during storm season.
Emergency Seal
Poly tarps secured with 2x4 battens and cap nails over all exposed areas. Active leak points sealed with roofing sealant. Loose or hanging shingles, flashing, and debris removed to prevent further damage in the next rain.
Full Inspection
Thorough damage assessment: how many shingles are missing or damaged, which flashing points failed, whether the underlayment is compromised, and whether the roof deck sheathing absorbed water. All documented with annotated photos for insurance.
Permanent Repair Scheduled
We schedule the permanent repair within days. Blown-off shingles replaced, damaged flashing rebuilt, compromised underlayment and sheathing replaced. The emergency patch holds while we source materials and schedule the crew for a full restoration.
