What is
emergency tarping?
Emergency tarping protects storm-damaged properties with a temporary but secure covering, usually over exposed roof areas, to prevent interior water damage while the carrier assesses the claim. A field professional installs the tarp within hours of the loss, keeping the home protected until permanent repairs begin.
With SeekNow, it is more than a tarp. We combine mitigation with real-time property intelligence: verified visuals, roof status reports, and inspection-quality documentation captured before the tarp is deployed. The home gets protected, the claim gets evidence, and nobody has to come back and pull the tarp off to see what is underneath.
When a tarp goes on before the damage is documented, the claim stalls. Reinspection means untarping, rescheduling, and re-exposing the home, often adding days to the cycle and a second contractor visit the policyholder has to host. Documenting damage on first arrival removes that loop entirely. One visit protects the property and arms the desk adjuster at the same time.
We don't just tarp.
We inspect first.
Every SeekNow tarp deployment pairs fast protection with the documentation the claim needs, captured in the same visit.
Quick response +
intelligent data.
Carriers build SeekNow into their weather event strategy because fast protection and claim-ready documentation arrive in the same visit.
Add a full inspection.
Still one visit.
When you add a Wind and Hail Inspection to your emergency tarp request, you receive a full claim-ready report within 24 hours, with no second trip to the property and no tarp coming back off.
Emergency tarping,
answered.
What is emergency roof tarping?
Emergency roof tarping protects a storm-damaged property with a temporary but secure covering, usually over exposed roof areas, to prevent interior water damage while the insurance claim is assessed. A field professional installs the tarp within hours of the loss.
Does SeekNow document damage before installing the tarp?
Yes. Every SeekNow tarp deployment includes verified photos, diagrams, a roof status report, and damage findings captured before the tarp is installed, so the evidence is preserved and the claim can move without untarping for reinspection.
How fast can SeekNow deploy after a storm?
Our coast-to-coast Seeker network mobilizes in hours, not days, across every affected market. Response SLAs are available for carriers that set up a portfolio-wide storm response program.
Why does pre-tarp documentation matter?
Once a tarp covers the damage, any reinspection requires untarping, rescheduling, and re-exposing the home, which typically adds five or more days to the claim cycle. Documenting damage on first arrival eliminates that loop: the home stays covered and the desk adjuster gets everything needed to work the claim.
Can I get a full inspection with the tarp?
Yes. Adding a Wind and Hail Inspection to an emergency tarp request delivers a full claim-ready report, including damage determination, labeled photos, diagrams, and measurements, within 24 hours, all from the same visit.
