Key Facts — Emergency Roof Repair in Dothan, AL
What to Do Right Now if Your Roof Is Leaking
If water is actively coming through your ceiling or walls, take these steps immediately — before calling anyone.
🪣 Contain the Water Inside
Put buckets, containers, or towels under active drips. Move electronics and valuables away from wet areas. If water is pooling on the ceiling, poke a small hole to drain it — a controlled drip is better than a ceiling collapse.
⚡ Turn Off Power to Affected Areas
If water is near electrical outlets, light fixtures, or your breaker panel, shut off power to those circuits. Water and electricity together are immediately dangerous.

"Tree branch went through our roof at 11 PM during a thunderstorm. Called MAC Construction and Stephen answered immediately. His crew was at our house by 1 AM with tarps. The permanent repair was done two days later. Insurance covered everything. Cannot recommend enough."
"Ceiling started dripping heavily during a storm. MAC Construction had someone at our house within 90 minutes of my call. They tarped the damaged section and the dripping stopped that night. Written quote for the permanent repair was in my inbox the next morning."
"Our 20-year-old roof gave way during heavy rain. Water was pouring into the bedroom. MAC Construction showed up with emergency materials and stopped the intrusion within 2 hours. They explained everything calmly and clearly despite us being panicked. True professionals."
"After hail broke through our skylight, water was flowing into the living room. Called MAC at 6 AM and they were here before 8. Temporary seal held perfectly until the permanent repair two days later. Their emergency response is the real deal."
"Called three roofers during an emergency leak. Two went to voicemail. MAC Construction answered on the second ring. That alone tells you everything about this company. The tarping was done that afternoon. Permanent repair a week later — all covered by insurance."

Does insurance cover emergency roof repair?
Yes, in most cases. Emergency tarping and temporary repairs to prevent further damage are typically covered under your homeowners insurance policy when caused by a covered event. Keep all receipts. MAC Construction provides timestamped documentation for your claim.
Should I tarp my own roof during an emergency?
No. Climbing on a wet or damaged roof is extremely dangerous, especially during a storm. Stay inside, contain the water with buckets and towels, and call MAC Construction. We have the safety equipment and training to tarp safely. Your safety is not worth the risk.
What should I do while waiting for the emergency repair crew?
Contain water with buckets or towels. Move valuables and electronics away from wet areas. Turn off power to affected circuits if water is near electrical outlets. Take photos and video of the damage — your phone timestamps automatically. Do not go on the roof.
Can you do emergency repairs at night or on weekends?
Yes. Our emergency service operates 24/7, 365 days a year. We have responded to emergency calls at every hour of the night and on every holiday. When water is coming into your home, time matters more than business hours.
What is the difference between emergency tarping and permanent repair?
Emergency tarping stops the immediate water intrusion using heavy-duty tarps and fastening systems. It is a temporary measure designed to protect your home until the permanent repair can be scheduled. Permanent repair addresses the root cause — replacing the failed component with new materials.
Will the tarp hold until the permanent repair is done?
Yes. Our emergency tarps are industrial-grade and properly fastened to withstand additional rain and wind events. Most permanent repairs are scheduled within 24 to 48 hours of the emergency, but the tarp will hold for weeks if needed due to scheduling or insurance processing.
