This is the Coral Springs page for emergency roof tarping. The short version: you want someone to get a tarp on today before more water comes in, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteThree-tab shingle from this era is past its life; the replacement will almost certainly be architectural, which earns better treatment at renewal. Most construction here dates from the '80s and '90s, so roofs are on their second cycle and carriers increasingly want to see a replacement date. A sealed roof deck — peel-and-stick underlayment over every seam — earns secondary water resistance credit on the wind mitigation form and is worth asking for by name.
On cost: a professional tarp install is a few hundred dollars and is nearly always reimbursable under a storm claim as mitigation — keep the receipt.

How it works
You can, but people get hurt on wet roofs every storm season, and a badly nailed tarp creates new leaks. If it's a single-story with a walkable pitch and the weather's cleared, it's doable; otherwise let a crew do it.
If the damage is from a covered event, tarping is a mitigation expense the policy expects you to incur. Photograph the damage before the tarp goes on.
