When does a roof need tarping or temporary dry-in?
A roof may need tarping or temporary dry-in when storm damage, missing materials, impact damage, or active leaks leave the home exposed to more water. Temporary protection is not the final repair, but it can reduce damage while the permanent scope is reviewed.

FAQ
Roof Tarping Questions
How long does a roof last in Florida?
A Florida roof life span depends on material, ventilation, installation quality, maintenance, and storm exposure. Many shingle roofs last 15 to 25 years, while tile and metal systems can last longer when properly maintained.
What roofing material is best for Tampa Bay?
The best roofing material depends on budget, home style, insurance requirements, wind exposure, and maintenance goals. Storm Peak Roofing can inspect the roof, compare shingle, tile, metal, and low-slope options, and recommend a practical fit.
Does insurance cover storm damage?
Insurance may cover covered storm damage when wind, hail, or another covered event damages the roof. A documented roof inspection helps homeowners understand visible damage before speaking with their insurance carrier.
Is roof tarping a permanent repair?
No. Tarping and dry-in are temporary protection steps. The roof still needs a permanent repair or replacement plan after the immediate water intrusion risk is controlled.
