Can you get on your roof to cover the area with a tarp?

Are you able to fix the shingles yourself?

If the damage is bad and if you think it will be awhile before you can get your roof fixed. Try calling FEMA’s Blue Roof Project to get on their list. (I don’t know where you are at and how bad the damage is in your area - but finding someone to do the repairs may take some time if you are not able to do it yourself.)

Managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and FEMA, the program provides free installation of a cover tarp on homes with roof damage.

Homeowners should call 1.888.ROOFBLU, or 1.888.766.3258. Calls to the number may get only a recorded message.

Applicants must show a photo ID or proof of residency. The roof must have less than 50 percent structural damage to be eligible for the program.
