Emergency Roof Repair in Downtown Newark, OH: what actually fails

Downtown wind damage is not new: the 1978 blizzard severely damaged the Midland Theatre. On a masonry block the emergency is usually a membrane peeled back at an edge or a parapet cap blown off, and the cover is anchored past the edge rather than over it.

The Newark Downtown Historic District, listed in 2002: a commercial core built from the 1870s to the 1920s around Courthouse Square and the 1878 Second Empire Licking County Courthouse.

04Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few dated photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
  2. Find whatever paperwork the roof hasAn old invoice, a warranty card, the year it went on, the name of whoever did it. Even a partial record narrows the search and can keep an existing warranty in play.

Note 01How much is an emergency roof repair?

Temporary cover is quoted on its own, on the call, and the permanent repair after it is estimated at $300 to $3,000 for most roofs, the same band as any other repair. The two are kept separate so nothing big is decided while water is coming in.

Note 02Will you come out at night?

For an active leak, where light and weather let the roof be worked safely. A tall or steep roof in wind or ice after dark sometimes cannot be, and you will be told so; the water is managed inside and the cover goes on at first light.

Note 03What should I photograph after a storm?

The roof from every side you can see from the ground, anything on the lawn that came off it, and every stain or drip inside, with the date. Those photographs, with ours from the roof, go into the folder for the repair.
