Madison Roof Pros provides professional emergency tarping in Madison, AL for residential and commercial properties across Madison and Limestone counties. A tarp is a small job with a large hook attached to it. Almost every emergency cover in Madison, AL costs less than the $2,500 threshold that triggers Alabama's licensing rule, and the paperwork handed over at midnight is frequently how the whole reroof gets committed.
So here is our rule, in writing. We will tarp your roof without you signing anything about the permanent repair. No assignment of benefits, no direction to pay, no contingency agreement, no clause that makes us the contractor if a claim gets approved. You get a price for the tarp and you keep every option you had before we arrived.
The tarp itself is installed to hold. Heavy woven poly run over the ridge where the opening allows it, edges rolled around furring strips and screwed down through the deck instead of nailed at the grommets, laps shingled so water runs over the joints, and the fasteners placed where they will be covered by the permanent repair. Nailing through the grommets is why tarps tear off in the second storm.
We work in the same order every time. Stop the water, then find where it is actually entering, which is often several feet uphill of where it is coming through your ceiling. Then we get inside, check what is wet in the attic, and tell you whether anything needs drying before it is closed back up. A dry-looking ceiling over saturated insulation is a mold problem waiting for August.
Then we stop. You get photographs of the damage and the cover, a written note of what we found and a plain estimate of what the permanent repair looks like, and we leave you to think about it in daylight. If you want three bids, get three bids. Our photographs are yours to hand to any of them. Nobody makes a good decision about twenty thousand dollars at midnight.
Tarps last months, not years, and we say that up front. Ultraviolet light chews woven poly in a north Alabama summer and every screw is a hole in your deck. If a permanent repair is going to take weeks because of a claim or a supply issue, we will come back and re-secure the cover rather than leaving it to shred quietly. Re-securing it is part of the original price, not a second call.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — split neoprene plumbing-vent collars, asphalt roof cement troweled over step flashing, kickout flashing at the low corner of a sidewall, painted steel drip edge at eaves and rakes, gutter apron tucked behind the fascia board, spike-and-ferrule gutter nails backed out of chewed fascia — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Madison and nearby communities including Huntsville, Athens, Decatur, Harvest.

Materials, equipment and how we do emergency tarping
The difference between emergency tarping that lasts and emergency tarping that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with split neoprene plumbing-vent collars, asphalt roof cement troweled over step flashing, kickout flashing at the low corner of a sidewall, painted steel drip edge at eaves and rakes, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Madison job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Madison and Limestone counties means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Madison Chooses Madison Roof Pros
- ✓Alabama licenses roofing at $2,500 and everything else residential at $10,000, so we tell you which side of that line your job falls on and exactly what it means for you.
- ✓Most of what we find on a Madison roof is somebody's old sub-$2,500 fix, and undoing cement over step flashing or a patched vent collar is usually the real work.
- ✓We check your completion date against Alabama's seven-year statute of repose first, because after that runs out nobody but you is on the hook for the building.
- ✓Coating a steep-slope asphalt roof is a refusal here rather than a line item, because the shingle is not a substrate and the sale exists mainly because it stays cheap.
The standards behind emergency tarping
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The emergency tarping work we do in Madison follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every emergency tarping project in Madison gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
