When your property is open to the weather or anyone passing by, Advanced Restoration is available 24 hours a day to secure it.
Emergency Board Up and Roof Tarping
Some damage can’t wait until morning. When a tree comes down on the roof during a nor’easter, or a car jumps the curb and crashes through the front of your store, suddenly your property is exposed to rain, wind, and anyone who wanders by. Advanced Restoration provides 24/7 emergency board up and roof tarping for homes and businesses across Suffolk County, Nassau County, Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx, and our experienced crews will keep your property secure until permanent repairs are complete.
If your home or business has been damaged and is exposed to the elements, call us at (631) 422-2100. We’ll get a crew headed your way and make sure your property is protected as quickly as possible.
What to do right after the damage happens
Your safety comes first. If there’s a fire, a gas smell, or a serious injury, call 911 before anything else, and stay well away from any downed power lines or areas where the structure looks unstable. Please don’t climb onto a damaged roof yourself, especially during a storm or while surfaces are still wet.
Once everyone is safe, take a few photos of the damage from a safe distance, since they’ll be helpful for your insurance claim. If you can do it without putting yourself at risk, move valuables, electronics, and important documents away from broken windows or leaks, and then give us a call so we can take it from there.
When you need emergency board up services
Boarding up is the fastest way to close off broken windows, damaged doors, and holes in exterior walls so your property is protected while you figure out the next steps. We most often secure homes and businesses after fires, when windows have been broken out or doors were forced open by firefighters. We also respond after storms and high winds, fallen trees and large limbs, vehicles crashing into storefronts, garages, or homes, and vandalism or break-ins that leave glass or doors damaged.
Our crews cover each opening with sturdy plywood that’s securely fastened to the structure. That keeps out rain, wind, animals, and intruders, and it gives you one less thing to worry about during an already stressful time.

Emergency roof tarping after storms and fires
A damaged roof lets in water every time it rains, and that water can quickly lead to soaked insulation, ruined ceilings, and mold. Emergency roof tarping covers holes, missing shingles, and burned sections with heavy-duty tarps that are secured to the roof so the inside of your home or building stays dry until the roof can be properly repaired.
We tarp roofs after wind and hurricane damage that strips away shingles or lifts sheathing, after trees or large branches fall onto the roof, and after fires that burn through roofing or leave openings from ventilation. We also tarp active leaks that need to be stopped until a full repair can be scheduled. If water has already made its way inside, our water damage restoration team can start drying your property during the same visit.
Why securing your property quickly matters
An open building is a vulnerable building. Rain, snow, and wind can soak insulation, drywall, and flooring in just a few hours, which means a broken window or a hole in the roof can turn into a much larger and more expensive repair if it’s left uncovered overnight. Open windows and doors also make it easy for someone to walk in and take what they want, especially when a home is empty after a fire.
Boarding up or tarping your property right away is a relatively small step, but it can prevent a lot of additional damage and expense while you work toward permanent repairs.
