This is the Garden Ridge 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 quoteHail season runs March through June with a fall echo, and the claim-filing window is measured from the storm date, so keep the date of every event that hit your street. Test-square counts before the adjuster arrives are what win reinspections — eight or more strikes per hundred square feet is the threshold most carriers use. Builder-grade ridge vents and starter strips are the early failure points on these roofs, and often it's a repair rather than a replacement.
What it costs in Garden Ridge: a professional tarp install is a few hundred dollars and is nearly always reimbursable under a storm claim as mitigation — keep the receipt.
Texas has no statewide roofing contractor license, which is exactly why we vet partners on insurance, manufacturer certification, and BBB standing instead of taking a business card at face value.
How it works
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.
Weeks, not months. Sun degrades the plastic and wind works the fasteners loose. It buys time for a proper repair or claim, not a season.
Texas has no statewide roofing contractor license, which is exactly why we vet partners on insurance, manufacturer certification, and BBB standing instead of taking a business card at face value. Garden Ridge is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
