Emergency Roof Leak Checklist for Vancouver Homeowners
Quick answer
Contain water inside, move valuables away from drips, photograph damage, and call Roofs Vancouver for 60-minute emergency dispatch. Do not go on the roof yourself.
First steps inside the home
Place a bucket or container under active drips, move furniture and electronics out of the way, and if water is pooling on a ceiling, a small controlled hole can relieve pressure and prevent wider ceiling collapse.
Do not go on the roof
Wet, storm-damaged, or steep roofs are dangerous. Leave inspection and temporary tarping to a professional crew with proper safety equipment.
When to call for emergency dispatch
Any active leak, missing shingles or sections after wind, or visible storm damage should be treated as an emergency. Call (778) 654-2681 for 60-minute dispatch across Greater Vancouver.
