Board Up and Tarp Over Services in Omaha

Our crew is available around the clock and responds to board up requests throughout the Omaha metro area, including Papillion, Bellevue, La Vista, and surrounding communities. Response time varies by location and call volume, particularly during or after widespread storm events. Board up is treated as an emergency stabilization priority, and our team moves as quickly as possible to secure your property.

Very urgent. An open or compromised roof section allows rain to reach insulation, ceiling drywall, and attic materials within hours. Once those materials are saturated, the scope of the restoration project grows significantly. Getting a tarp installed quickly after storm damage is one of the most effective ways to limit the total cost of the event. Do not wait to see if the rain holds off. Call our team to get the roof secured as soon as possible.

Emergency board-up and roof tarping following a covered event, such as a tornado, hailstorm, or fire, is generally included in standard homeowners coverage as a mitigation measure to prevent further damage. Keep documentation of the damage, photographs before board up is installed, and records of the service. Contact your insurance provider to confirm what your specific policy covers.

Our crew uses installation methods that protect the surrounding structure. The goal is to secure the opening without causing additional damage to frames or exterior finishes. When restoration or repair begins, and the boards are removed, the structure underneath should be in the same condition it was in when the board up was installed.

Our team can return to reinforce or replace tarping and boarding if a subsequent storm threatens the area or if the initial installation is compromised. Nebraska's storm season can bring multiple events in a short period, and keeping your home secured through the gap between emergency stabilization and full repair is something our crew takes seriously.

Yes. An open window or breached exterior wall is an access point for birds, squirrels, raccoons, and other animals. Once animals enter a damaged home, they can cause additional destruction and complicate the restoration process. Getting the home boarded up quickly seals off those access points and prevents secondary intrusions from compounding the original damage.

Not necessarily. Our crew assesses the specific areas where damage created exterior openings and focuses board up on those locations. A fire contained to a kitchen or a single room may only require boarding up the affected windows and the immediate exterior of that area. If heat or structural damage affected other parts of the home, we will identify those as well and address any openings found during the assessment.
