A roof emergency means water is getting in or about to get in. Wind-damaged shingles exposing the underlayment, hail-cracked shingles that won't survive the next rain, a fallen branch through the roof deck, or a suddenly leaking chimney flashing. Hammondsport Roofing & Maintenance handles all of it — fast. Call (877) 586-1316 and we'll be there.
Ice dam emergencies happen in NY winters. Ice builds up along the eave, backs water under the shingles, and leaks into the soffit, fascia, and interior walls. Hammondsport Roofing & Maintenance removes the ice dam, installs emergency ice-and-water shield where possible, and schedules a permanent fix with proper eave protection for next winter.
Our Emergency Roof Repair Process
Rapid Response
Call (877) 586-1316 and describe the situation. Active leak, storm damage, fallen debris, collapsed section — we triage over the phone and dispatch a crew. Same-day response for active emergencies in Hammondsport.
Tarp & Contain
Emergency tarping and sealing. We cover exposed sheathing, plug active leak points, and remove any debris that could cause additional damage. The goal is containment — stop the water, stabilize the damage.
Damage Assessment
With the emergency contained, we inspect the full extent of damage. Shingles, underlayment, roof deck, flashing, gutters, fascia, and soffit. We document everything with photos for your insurance claim — location, type, and severity of each damaged component.
Fix It Right
The permanent fix restores your roof to full protection. All emergency patches removed and replaced with permanent materials. Damaged shingles, flashing, pipe boots, and vent boots replaced. Underlayment and decking repaired or replaced as needed.
