You're in good hands. We are here to help. If water is actively coming into your home during a storm, start taking photos and videos for two reasons. 1) insurance companies will likely ask to see these photos and 2) photos and videos help us isolate leaks and solve for the problems you're having. Take shots that show more than just the actual leak; take a long shot showing where in the room the leak is occuring. And if possible, take a photo or video from inside the attic or crawlspace if it's accessible.

201.317.2198 is our main number. The fastest way to get a response is by texting that number. You can also email us at amanda@mavennj.com - it is typical that we can get out to perform an emergency repair or tarping within 24 hours. If it is raining or storming, it is not safe for us to send our teams out - generally. For emergency services, we serve a radius of 20 minutes of Succasunna, NJ. If you are beyond that, we charge an additional travel fee of $150 for all emergency services.
If you can access the leak from inside your attic, try to put a bucket or container under the leak. Under-bed storage containers that are about 6 inches tall work great for leaks that occur lower on a roof line and are harder to access. If it's occurring around the chimney or around vent pipes, try to place towels around the area that's l
If you can access the leak from inside your attic, try to put a bucket or container under the leak. Under-bed storage containers that are about 6 inches tall work great for leaks that occur lower on a roof line and are harder to access. If it's occurring around the chimney or around vent pipes, try to place towels around the area that's leaking to stop the water from flowing down into your home. If you can't access the point of the leak, place a bucket or container under the drip at the highest point you can get it.
If you have significant interior water damage, it may be wise to call your insurance company if your policy is comprehensive. Insurance companies often cover the cost of emergency tarping or emergency repairs because they want to mitigate their losses by stopping additional water from coming into your home.

If you have significant interior water damage, it may be wise to call your insurance company if your policy is comprehensive. Insurance companies often cover the cost of emergency tarping or emergency repairs because they want to mitigate their losses by stopping additional water from coming into your home. We recommend calling your insurance broker first to seek their guidance on your specific policy before placing a claim.
Usually, we can come within 24 hours of receiving a call. We prioritize emergency roof tarping and fit in smaller repairs like caulking chimney flashing or skylight flashing if our day allows. If a storm hits in the morning, it may be possible for us to get there by the end of the day.
Any repairs requested within 72 hours of a major rainfall event are considered emergency calls. Any repairs requested in anticipation of a major rainfall event (within 24 hours of the event) are considered emergency calls. Requested repair work performed on a weekend or after 4pm Monday - Friday are considered emergency calls.
Emergency repairs are sometimes necessary and unavoidable. Many times, insurance companies will reimburse homeowners for emergency tarping or emergency repairs to mitigate further water damage. Our emergency repairs start at $550 (typically this is for caulking a skylight or chimney flashing) and can go up to or even exceed $1,500 for emergency tarping of a roof. The larger the roof and the steeper it is, the more expensive the tarping will be.
We collect a payment of $550 before we send our crew out - this ensures that we have a binding contract to come out and complete an emergency service. Payment can be made via PayPal, Zelle, or Credit Card. If we arrive on site and determine that the issue is not repairable or that the issue requires a more comprehensive solution than a repair ir a tarp, we will either refund your money or you can apply that initial payment to the larger project. When on site, we will discuss the full scope and cost of the repair. Final payment can be made by cash, check, credit card, PayPayl, or Zelle and is due before we leave.
By nature of emergency repairs, the work can be even more dangerous than usual roof-related repairs. And it is usually more difficult to solve for. We send out full-time employees of ours to perform these jobs, which pulls our team away from other non-emergency work. Also, we are fully licensed and insured for roofing, unlike many local contractors who don't want to pay the high liability and workers comp insurance.
Our emergency repair contracts very clearly state that - by nature - emergency repair work is a temporary attempt to stop water from coming into one's home and that we cannot take on the liability of failing roof systems or poor workmanship of another contractor. It's not uncommon for us to fix one issue and another one springs up 5 - 10 feet away during the next heavy rainstorm. When this happens, it's because there are more systemic issues with the roof system that need to be addressed by a partial or full replacement.
