Emergency Roof Repair in Riker Hill, Livingston: what actually fails

On Riker Hill an emergency is often a limb, because the lots are heavily wooded. Nobody goes up until the limb is safely off; then the opening is covered and the slope around it is checked once it is light.

A present-day Livingston neighborhood named for the hill that holds the Riker Hill Art Park and the park complex around it.

  • Shaded slopes that stay damp
  • Drains on any low section under trees
  • Storm damage from falling branches
  • Limbs over the roof, before anyone climbs

Note 01What should I do if a storm blows shingles off my roof?

Catch any water inside, keep clear of wet ceilings near light fixtures, and photograph the roof from the ground and the damage inside. Do not go up a wet ladder. Then call: a few missing shingles over a dry ceiling is a repair for the next dry day; water coming in is cover tonight.

Note 02What to do if the roof is leaking during a storm?

Stay safe and stop the damage inside: a bucket under the drip, belongings moved, the circuit off if water is near a fixture. Do not go on the roof in wind or rain. Call for cover; the permanent repair is quoted in daylight once the roof can be seen properly.

Note 03Is a tree limb on the roof an emergency?

Yes if it has broken through or water is coming in, and on Livingston's wooded lots it is one of the commonest storm calls. Stay out from under it. The limb comes off first, then the opening is covered.
