Signs your Bryant, AR roof needs an emergency tarp
A roof tarp keeps rain out of your home until the roof can be repaired. While a hole stays open, water can soak the decking, the insulation, and the ceiling below it.
Damage you can see from the yard
- Shingles or ridge caps blown off by wind
- A hole where a tree limb came through the roof
- Bare wood decking or underlayment showing
- Flashing, the metal around a chimney or wall, lifted or torn loose
Signs inside the house
- Water dripping from the ceiling after a storm
- Water coming into the attic
If power lines are down on the house or the ceiling is sagging, call 911 or the power company first. Inside, move furniture and belongings away from the drip and set a bucket under it.
Stay off a wet roof, above all at night. Take photos or video of the damage you can see from the ground and inside, because your insurance company will ask for them.

Emergency roof tarping questions from Bryant homeowners
Answers on speed, cost, insurance, and how long a tarp lasts.
Need a tarp now? Answered 24/7(501) 307-1440How fast can you get a tarp on my roof?
The same day, within a few hours of your call. Lifetime Construction Builders answers (501) 307-1440 24/7 with a real person, and the tarp itself takes 1 to 4 hours on site.
How much does it cost to tarp a roof?
Most emergency tarps from Lifetime Construction Builders cost $400 to $2,500. The price depends on your roof's size and pitch, the size of the damaged area, and how easy the damage is to reach.
Will my insurance pay for an emergency roof tarp?
Often, when wind, hail, or a falling tree caused the damage; your policy decides, and wear or age usually isn't covered. Keep the receipt. Lifetime Construction Builders photographs the damage for your claim and helps with the claim at no extra cost.
Should I wait for the adjuster before tarping my roof?
No. The Arkansas Insurance Department tells homeowners to cover leaking roofs right away and to hold off on permanent repairs until the insurer inspects. Lifetime Construction Builders tarps the damage the same day and photographs it for your claim.
Will a tarp stop my roof from leaking?
A tarp keeps rain out over the damaged area, but it isn't a repair. Lifetime Construction Builders follows the tarp with a free inspection and a written estimate to fix the roof itself.
How long can a tarp stay on a roof?
Only until the repair. FEMA designs its Operation Blue Roof tarps to last 30 days, and wind, sun, and debris wear any tarp down. A tarp from Lifetime Construction Builders is temporary protection, so it carries no warranty; plan the repair soon.
Should I tarp the roof myself?
Tarping means working on a wet, damaged roof, so stay off it at night or in the rain. If you do it yourself, ask your insurer whether it pays for your own labor. A Lifetime Construction Builders crew tarps a roof in 1 to 4 hours.
