Emergency Board-Up & Tarping Across the GTA

When a storm, fire, break-in, or vehicle impact opens up a building, the first job is to close it back up. An unsecured property keeps taking damage: rain and snow pour through a breached roof, wind drives water deeper into the structure, and an open door or window invites theft and liability.

Restoration Services GTA provides 24/7 emergency board-up and tarping across the Greater Toronto Area. Our crews secure broken windows and doors, tarp roof breaches, and stabilize the building envelope fast, so the damage stops spreading while permanent repairs and your insurance claim get underway.

Why Fast Board-Up & Tarping Matters

The hours after a loss are when a bad situation gets worse. Securing the property quickly protects what is left, satisfies your insurer's expectation that you prevent further damage, and buys time to plan the full repair.

  • An open roof or wall lets water keep entering long after the storm passes.
  • Most policies require you to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage.
  • An unsecured building is exposed to theft, vandalism, and injury claims.
  • Fast stabilization lowers the size and cost of the eventual repair.

Stay clear of the damaged area

Do not climb onto a storm-damaged roof or enter a room with a sagging ceiling or downed wires. Call us, and for live electrical lines call your utility, then let a crew secure the property safely.

How It Works

Our Board-Up & Tarping Process

We move fast to close the building up and document everything for your claim:

01

Rapid dispatch and assessment

We respond 24/7, assess what is open and what is at risk, and prioritize the breaches letting in water or leaving the property exposed.

02

Securing openings

Broken windows, doors, and wall breaches are boarded with plywood and fastened securely to keep out weather and intruders.

03

Roof tarping

Roof breaches are covered with heavy-duty tarps, anchored and sealed to shed water until permanent roofing repairs can be scheduled.

04

Documentation and next steps

We photograph and document the emergency work for your claim, then set up the mitigation and reconstruction that follow.

Board-Up, Tarping, and Your Insurance Claim

Emergency board-up and tarping is one of the clearest covered costs in a property claim, because insurers expect you to prevent further damage after a loss. Keeping the water out protects the rest of your coverage too.

We document the emergency measures to insurer standards and bill your carrier directly, so securing the property does not become another thing for you to manage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you board up my property?

Our crews are on call 24/7 across the GTA and are typically on-site within the hour to secure openings and stop further damage.

Will my insurance cover emergency board-up?

In most cases yes. Preventing further damage is a standard part of a property claim, and we document and bill the emergency work directly to your insurer.

Is tarping a permanent fix for my roof?

No. Tarping is temporary stabilization that keeps water out until permanent roofing repairs can be done. It protects the interior in the meantime.

Do you handle both the emergency work and the repairs?

Yes. We secure the property first, then handle mitigation and full reconstruction under one roof, so you deal with one accountable team.

What should I do before your crew arrives?

Keep everyone away from the damaged area, avoid any downed power lines, and if it is safe, move valuables away from water intrusion. Then leave the securing to the crew.
