Exposed property means ongoing damage. Our emergency crew responds within 60 minutes to board up windows, tarp roofs, and secure openings — stopping water, weather, and intruders from making things worse.
If your property has exposed openings from storm, fire, or break-in damage, call Resto Experts at (901) 519-2580 immediately. Every hour of exposure means more water intrusion, more damage, and higher restoration costs. We respond 24/7 within 60 minutes.
Unsecured property after damage leads to: water intrusion causing mold and structural damage, vandalism and theft, animal entry, and potential insurance claim denial. Most insurance policies require you to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage — board-up and tarping fulfills this obligation.
Our emergency crew arrives with lumber, tarps, and equipment to secure all openings. We board windows and doors, tarp damaged roofs, and secure any breach point. All work is documented with photos for your insurance claim. We also assess the full extent of damage and provide a restoration plan.

Resto Experts responds within 60 minutes throughout the Memphis metro area, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our emergency crews carry board-up materials and tarps so we can secure your property immediately upon arrival.
Most insurance policies require policyholders to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage. Failing to secure your property after damage could result in denied claims for secondary damage. Board-up and tarping costs are typically reimbursed as part of your insurance claim.
Emergency board-up ranges from $100-$250 per window and $300-$1,500 for roof tarping. Full property board-up typically costs $500-$3,000. These costs are usually covered by your insurance as part of the mitigation requirement.
Resto Experts uses 3/4-inch plywood cut to fit window and door openings, secured with exterior-rated screws to minimize structural damage to frames. Large openings receive structural bracing. Roof tarping uses 6-mil or heavier polyethylene tarps with battens and fasteners rated for Memphis wind conditions. All materials and installation are documented with photos before and after for your insurance claim.
Board-up is a temporary measure designed to hold until permanent repairs begin — typically 2 to 8 weeks for most insurance claims. Properly installed tarps can last 30 to 90 days, though Memphis weather warrants earlier inspection after significant rain or wind. If the claims or repair timeline extends beyond 90 days, Resto Experts will reassess and re-secure as needed. We coordinate directly with your adjuster to ensure your property stays protected throughout the entire process.
