Board-up Services & Roof Tarping | Rainbow Restoration

Board-up and Tarp-over Services Are Essential For:

After a residential property sustains damage, it’s often left vulnerable to water (rain or snow), wind, and debris, which may complicate the restoration process. Tarping or boarding-over broken windows or damaged roofs helps prevent further damage.
Boarding up and tarping over damaged portions of a home helps to secure its contents and deter vandalism.
In the case of storm-prone regions or large renovation projects, board-up services may be used as a preventative measure.

I highly recommend Rainbow Restoration! They did an excellent job and were able to fit us in right after I called and their rates were by far the best I found. They take great pride in their work and that was apparent on the job they did.
