If a roof leak starts during heavy rain, stay off the roof and first control the water inside to protect people and property. The most common first move is to catch and contain the drip, then call A. Brooks Construction, Inc. Kanga Roof for emergency tarping and a professional leak diagnostic. In our field work, the drip often shows up several feet away from the true entry point, so don’t open the ceiling or chase it during the storm. After the situation is stabilized, you can request our $89.99 Guaranteed Leak Repair diagnostic with straightforward pricing. We respond to storm-related leaks throughout the region, including homes near Middletown, PA.
Do these immediate steps inside:
- Move furniture and electronics; set a bucket and towels to catch water.
- Photograph the active leak and any ceiling staining for documentation.
- If water nears light fixtures or the ceiling bulges, shut power at the breaker and avoid the room.
- Do not climb on the roof or attempt DIY tarping in high winds.
If the ceiling sags or water reaches electrical areas, shut the breaker and wait in a dry room until a roofer secures the roof.
