The Permanent Fix Can Wait — The Weather Can't
Sometimes the right repair genuinely can’t happen today. That doesn’t mean your property should sit exposed while you wait.
Waiting on an insurance assessment
Most policies require you to prevent further damage while a claim is processed — temporary protection satisfies that requirement.
Waiting on matching materials
Period properties often need specific reclaimed or matched tiles that take time to source — the roof still needs covering meanwhile.
Waiting on your own contractor
If your preferred roofer can't get to you for a week or two, a proper temporary cover buys you that time safely.
Structural assessment needed first
Where a structural engineer needs to inspect before any permanent work begins, the property still needs protecting today.
What Emergency Tarping Actually Covers
Quick Damage Check
A fast on-site check of what's compromised and what needs covering, before anyone climbs a ladder.
Secure Temporary Weatherproofing
Reinforced sheeting properly battened and secured — not just draped and taped — rated to hold for weeks, not days.
Photo Report Provided
Photos of the damage and the completed protection, suitable for your insurer or for whoever carries out the permanent repair.
No Obligation Either Way
Use us for the permanent repair if you'd like a quote, or take this report to your own contractor — entirely your call.

What Harrow Homeowners Say
Wealdstone · Awaiting Insurance Assessment
“Insurer needed their own assessor out first, which took over a week to arrange. Roof was properly covered same day we called, with photos for the claim. No pressure to use them for the actual repair.”
Pinner · Waiting on Matching Slate
“Period property needed specific reclaimed slate that took three weeks to source. Temporary cover held up perfectly the whole time, properly secured not just a tarp thrown over it.”
Harrow on the Hill · Landlord, Own Contractor Booked
“Already had a roofer booked for the permanent fix but couldn’t get anyone out for two weeks. Just needed it made safe in the meantime, which is exactly what they did, no upsell attempt at all.”
Emergency Tarping in Harrow, Answered
Fitted properly with reinforced, weatherproof-rated sheeting, a temporary cover can reasonably hold for several weeks. It's not designed as a permanent solution, but it's built to genuinely protect the property while you sort out the details — not just get you through one more night.
Most buildings insurance policies require policyholders to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage once an issue is known — a documented, professionally fitted temporary cover is exactly the kind of mitigation most insurers expect. We can't guarantee what your specific policy requires, so check with your insurer if you're unsure, but we'll provide the photo documentation either way.
No. We're happy to quote for the permanent repair if you'd like one, but there's no obligation. Many customers use us for tarping specifically because they're waiting on their own contractor, an insurer's approval, or specific materials.
Reinforced tarpaulin or roofing felt, properly battened down at the edges rather than just weighted or taped. This is the difference between a cover that survives the next storm and one that doesn't.
Both. Chimney stacks, skylights and localised sections can all be temporarily protected, not just full roof slopes — we'll assess exactly what needs covering when we arrive.
