What the work involves
The actual scope, in the order it matters. If a step is missing from someone’s bid, ask them why.
- Board broken windows, doors, and openings after fire, storm, vehicle impact, or forced entry.
- Install reinforced tarp over damaged roof sections, fastened and sealed to shed water rather than pool it.
- Temporary fencing and access control on structures that are no longer secure.
- Photograph the damage and the mitigation before and after, timestamped for the claim file.
- Coordinate with the roofer, glazier, or general contractor so the temporary work comes off the day the permanent repair goes on.
A tarp buys time and that is all it buys. A properly fastened one holds for a few months, less under snow load or sustained wind, and it does nothing for the shingles underneath. We do not replace roofs and we do not set glass, so the permanent work belongs to a roofer or a glazier. Call us for the tonight part, call them for the rest.

What we see in Middleton
Field notes on Middleton: the housing stock, where the water comes from, and what that means for this work.
Middleton is the oldest settlement in Canyon County and the housing mix still shows it: turn-of-the-century farmhouses and 1960s ranches on acreage sitting directly next to subdivisions platted in the last two years.
The town is built along the Boise River and split down the middle by Highway 44. River-adjacent parcels sit over a shallow water table, so through irrigation season the dirt under those crawlspaces never really dries out.
Purple Sage and the acreage north of town are on wells and septic with ditch irrigation rights. Freeze breaks in unheated well houses and pump sheds are a routine January call out there, and they run until somebody notices the pressure is gone.
On the older farmhouses the crawlspace is bare dirt with no vapor barrier at all. We show up for a plumbing leak and find the larger problem is decades of ground moisture on the joists and subfloor.

Questions we get
Straight answers, including the ones that occasionally talk someone out of hiring us.
How fast can you get here?
This is our fastest-dispatch service. An open building is an active loss and we treat it that way. Call and we will give you a real arrival window for your address rather than a slogan. We run this 24/7, including nights and holidays.
Will insurance pay for board-up and tarping?
Nearly always. Property policies contain a duty to protect the property from further damage, so emergency mitigation is both covered and expected. Failing to secure an open building is one of the few things that can genuinely reduce what a carrier pays on the rest of the claim.
How long can a tarp stay on the roof?
A properly installed tarp holds for a few months, and less than that under snow load or sustained wind. It is holding weather off a roof that still needs replacing, so treat the roofing schedule as the real clock. We inspect ours if that schedule stretches out, and we will tell you when it needs to be re-secured.
