Some roofing problems can wait a few days. An active breach can't. When a tree comes through your roof, a wind event strips off a section of shingles, or something creates an opening that water is going through right now — that's a different kind of call.
RJ Roofing & Contracting responds to urgent roof situations across Joplin and Southwest Missouri. We come out, assess what's happened, and either get it repaired on the spot or get a tarp over it to stop the bleeding while a proper repair is planned.
The first priority in any emergency roof situation is stopping water from getting further into the structure. Every hour water is moving through a breach it's doing more damage — to insulation, decking, framing, ceilings, and whatever is below.
Call 417-499-6697. Tell us what's happening and where you are. We'll tell you exactly when we can be there.
📞 Call 417-499-6697If any of these describe your situation right now, call us. Don't wait to see if it gets better on its own.
A tree or large branch through the roof is an immediate emergency. The opening needs to be assessed and covered as fast as possible. Water, animals, and further structural damage don't wait.
Water coming through your ceiling or running down interior walls means your roof has been breached somewhere. The longer it runs, the more damage it does. This is not a situation to monitor — it needs to be addressed.
High winds can strip significant sections of shingles off a roof in minutes. Exposed underlayment or bare decking is a breach waiting to happen the next time it rains. We get it covered until a proper repair can be done.
A visibly sagging or partially collapsed roof section is a structural issue that needs immediate attention. We assess the scope and stabilize the situation before water compounds the structural damage further.
Flashing or ridge cap that has lifted or blown off creates an open entry point for water along the most vulnerable areas of the roof. It needs to be addressed before the next rain event.
If something happened to your roof and you're not sure how serious it is, call us. We'd rather come out and tell you it's fine than have you wait on something that isn't. Call 417-499-6697.
Not every emergency roof situation can be fully repaired on the first visit — sometimes the scope of the damage, material availability, or the time of day means the right first step is getting a tarp over the affected area to stop water from getting in while a proper repair is scheduled.
We provide emergency tarping across Joplin and Southwest Missouri. A properly installed tarp covers the breach, is secured so it stays in place, and buys you the time needed to get the repair done correctly rather than rushing it.
Tarping is a temporary solution — it's not a repair. But it's the right move when the alternative is leaving an open roof exposed to whatever weather comes next.

Joplin's weather creates genuine roof emergencies. High winds, severe storms, falling trees — when something goes wrong with a roof here it often goes wrong fast. The window between a manageable situation and a major structural problem can be a single rain event.
