What Is a Roof Emergency?
If any of these apply to your situation, call us immediately. Waiting can turn manageable damage into a catastrophic loss.
Active Leak During Rain
Water is actively entering your home through the ceiling or walls. This is the most urgent situation and needs immediate temporary protection to prevent structural and interior damage.
Storm Damage
High winds have torn off shingles, flashing, or ridge caps, leaving your roof deck exposed to the elements. Vancouver Island's coastal storms can remove large sections of roofing in minutes.
Fallen Tree or Large Branch
A tree or large branch has struck your roof, causing structural damage or puncturing the roof surface. Do not attempt to remove it yourself — it may be holding broken pieces in place.
Structural Sagging
Your roof line is visibly sagging or dipping, indicating a potential structural failure. This is a safety hazard — stay clear of the affected area and call immediately.
Fire Damage
A chimney fire or external fire has damaged your roofing material, compromising the weather barrier. Even partial fire damage requires immediate tarping to prevent water entry.
Ice Dam Flooding
Ice has dammed water behind it on your roof, causing it to back up under shingles and flood into the attic. While less common in Campbell River, it does occur during cold snaps.
What to Do Right Now If Your Roof Is Leaking
Protect Your Belongings
Move furniture, electronics, and valuables away from the leak area. Place buckets, bins, or tarps to catch incoming water. If water is pooling on the ceiling, place a bucket underneath and carefully poke a small hole to let it drain — this prevents the ceiling from collapsing under the weight of accumulated water.
Document the Damage
Take photos and video of the leak, the interior damage, and any visible exterior damage. This documentation is critical for your insurance claim. Include timestamps and wide shots that show the extent of the damage.
Call Beauchemin Roofing
Call us at 250-202-2541. Describe the situation and we will advise you on any additional steps to take while we dispatch our team. Do NOT go up on the roof yourself, especially during a storm — leave that to the professionals.
Contact Your Insurance Company
Report the damage to your home insurance provider as soon as possible. Most policies require prompt notification. We can help you navigate the claims process — read our insurance claims guide for more details.
Our Emergency Response Process
Rapid Assessment
We assess the severity of your situation over the phone and dispatch our team as quickly as possible. For active leaks and storm damage, we prioritize same-day response.
Emergency Tarping
Our first priority is to stop the water. We install heavy-duty tarps and temporary seals to prevent further water intrusion while we plan the permanent repair.
Damage Assessment
Once the immediate emergency is controlled, Chea personally inspects the full extent of the damage and prepares a detailed assessment for you and your insurance company.
Permanent Repair
We schedule and complete the permanent roof repair or replacement as soon as weather and materials allow. We handle all insurance documentation.
Free Storm Damage Assessment
After a major storm, many homes in the Campbell River area sustain damage that is not immediately visible from the ground. Missing shingles on the back slope, lifted flashing around vents, and cracked ridge caps can all lead to leaks that show up weeks later.
We offer free storm damage assessments for homeowners throughout Campbell River, Courtenay, Comox, Quadra Island, and the surrounding communities. If your area was hit by a major storm, contact us even if you are not sure whether your roof was affected. It is better to find damage early than to discover it when water starts coming through the ceiling.
Insurance Claim Assistance
Dealing with a damaged roof is stressful enough without the added complexity of navigating an insurance claim. We help with every step:
- ► Detailed damage documentation with photos
- ► Written scope of work for your adjuster
- ► Meeting with insurance adjusters on-site
- ► Fair, transparent pricing that insurers accept
