Emergency Roof Repair in Centennial, CO
Getting a Centennial roof closed up and dry after wind, hail or something coming through it, then sorting the permanent repair. Which problems need dealing with tonight, what to move indoors while you wait, and why the cover comes off again.
When a Centennial Roof Fails
Greater Denver Area roofs fail suddenly at two different times of year, and almost everything written about it only covers one.
Damaging hail runs from around the middle of April to the middle of September. What makes it an emergency isn't the bruising, which is a claim rather than a crisis. It's a puncture, a shingle torn open, or a branch brought down onto the roof by the same storm. High wind events happen mostly in the cold season, driven off the mountains. They take shingles rather than punch holes in them. A course lifts, creases along its length and peels back. Often there's no rain that night, and nothing shows inside at all. The roof sits open until the next melt finds it, weeks later.
We take calls seven days a week, 9am to 5pm. Outside those hours we still take the call, and for a genuine emergency we go out. That's decided call by call rather than promised in advance.
On residential roofs, we hold GAF Master Elite certification. Licensed and insured, with background checks on everyone who enters your home. That's what opens up GAF's enhanced warranties, Golden Pledge included, on qualifying roof systems.
Cover First, Then the Real Repair
While you're on the phone, and after you hang up, there's a short list of things worth doing, and all of it is indoors.
Move what's underneath. Furniture, rugs, electronics, anything paper. Get a bucket or a bin under the drip and a towel around it. If water is anywhere near a fixture or a socket, kill the power to those circuits at the panel. Don't test your luck. If the ceiling is bulging with water behind it, keep people out of that room. A bulge lets go all at once.
Photograph everything before you clean any of it up. The stain, the drip, the puddle, the damaged ceiling, the state of the room. If it turns into a claim, those photographs are the record of what it looked like before anybody touched it. They're the ones nobody thinks to take.
Colorado's insurance regulator tells homeowners to limit further damage after a storm. It specifically names putting tarps on roofs as one of the things that means. That's worth knowing, because it reframes emergency covering. It isn't an extra somebody sold you. It's the thing your carrier expects to have happened.
What it doesn't mean is you doing it. Stay off the roof. In rain, in snow, in wind, on a hail-struck surface, in the dark: that's how people get seriously hurt. A homeowner walking a damaged roof can also leave marks that muddy the claim afterward. The indoor half genuinely helps. The roof half is the part to hand over.
Our first visit has one job: stop water getting in. Nothing else gets attempted while the roof is wet, dark or still being weathered. That usually means covering the opening and securing it against the wind. Around here, that's the part that decides whether a cover holds at all. Covers get secured without driving new holes through sound shingles. A fixing through good material is next winter's leak once the cover comes off. We photograph the damage and the work done to it. That's because emergency mitigation is often its own line on a claim, separate from the permanent repair.
Then the permanent repair is a separate, planned piece of work. A Centennial mailing address doesn't always mean the house is inside the city, and that changes the rules, so we check the parcel before we quote. The temporary cover comes off when the real work goes on. A cover buys time and nothing more.

Which Roof Problems Are Emergencies
Some things on a roof need dealing with tonight and some things genuinely don't, and knowing which one you've got is most of what people want when they call.
These are emergencies.
- Water coming into a room you live in, or running down a wall.
- Water anywhere near a light fixture, an outlet or the electrical panel.
- A ceiling that's sagging, bulging or holding water.
- A branch or anything heavy sitting on the roof.
- Any part of the roof deck open to the sky.
- Shingles torn off or missing with more weather on the way.
- Daylight visible through the deck when you look in the attic.
These matter, and they aren't tonight.
- A ceiling stain that's dry and hasn't grown.
- A drip you've caught in a bucket with nothing forecast overnight.
- Dented gutters or a marked wall after hail, with nothing coming in.
- Grit from the shingles collecting at the bottom of the downspouts.
The call itself is short and it starts with the same few questions. Is anybody in danger. Is water anywhere near electrics. Can the inside of the house be protected right now. Those answers decide what happens next more than the state of the roof does. A roof that's already open stays open either way. The damage that's still preventable is nearly always indoors.
You don't have to work out which list you're on before you call. Describe what's happening and we'll help you place it. And if it's been windy and nothing is leaking, it's still worth having us look. A missing shingle is a small thing. An open patch of underlayment waiting for March is not.
What Centennial Customers Say
Adam Mayka
Josh with Semper Fi came to look at my roof after the most recent hail storm and couldn’t have been nicer. He was honest, thorough, and explained everything about the inspection process in great detail. His attention to detail and communication made it a very comfortable experience. Albeit we don’t need a new roof, when that time does come I will be using Semper Fi and I will recommend them to all of my friends and neighbors
Todd Reynolds
Was very responsive. I was able to get what was needed in regards to our roof inspections on three houses quickly. And worked with our insurance agent getting the right information needed for our insurance needs. If you’re looking for someone that knows roofs and you need inspections or confirmations regarding your roof. Highly would recommend recommend this company
Zilvinas Sutkus
We had Semper Fi Restoration Inc. complete the roof on our 10,000 sq. ft. commercial building, and we had a great experience from start to finish. We had the opportunity to meet Joshua Bosley and worked mainly with Leo, our project manager. Leo’s communication throughout the entire project was top-notch. As with any large commercial roofing project, we ran into a few unexpected snags along the way, but the Semper Fi team stepped up and took care of every issue with no questions asked. They stood behind their work, kept us informed, and made sure everything was handled properly. It’s refreshing to work with a company that takes responsibility and follows through on what they promise. We are very happy with the finished roof and would definitely recommend Semper Fi Restoration Inc. to anyone looking for a dependable and professional roofing company. Thank you to Joshua, Leo, and the entire Semper Fi team for a job well done!
Michael Molina
There are a lot of Roofing Contractors out there so when I was referred Josh and his team by a close friend I knew there must be something different about them. From the first meeting with Josh and Daniel I felt comfortable and at ease. I had a lot of questions and they answered them without hesitation and in extreme detail which I appreciated. They helped me through the entire insurance journey and made sure I was covered before any work was done which helped lift that burden off my shoulders. Also, you will not find a Owner as diligent as Josh when it comes to QA/QC of the work done by his crews making sure the roof/gutters you get are up to HIS standards. I appreciate Josh and Daniel for getting the work done and definitely exceeded all my expectations. I don't usually write reviews but their work deserves some praise, I will definitely be referring them anytime I hear anyone I know is even thinking of getting or needing a new roof.
Larry Walters
We had a great experience working with Joshua Bosley and Semper Fi Restoration after our home suffered large hail damage. They are honest, trustworthy, professional and knowledgeable. They held subcontractors to their high standards. This has been the best experience we have ever had with a roof replacement and other hail damage repairs. Working with Josh, Kat, and the team was a pleasure. We highly recommend Semper Fi to others! Larry and Darlene W.
Zachary Koch
I wanted to take a moment to leave a review for Josh and his team at Semper Fi Restoration. Josh came out the same day we called to provide an estimate and inspect our roof, and a member of his team completed the repairs first thing the very next morning. We truly appreciated the quick turnaround, excellent customer service, and quality workmanship in repairing the damage to our roof. The entire process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. I highly recommend Semper Fi Restoration to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive roofing company!
Lisa Smith
When my insurance refused to pay for my hail damaged roof, Semper Fi worked with my insurance to successfully get them to pay. They helped me with the entire process and communicated well. They were always available if I had questions. Their crew did a good job. They cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend this company.
Aubrey Monckton
I had a fantastic experience with Leo at Semper Fi Restoration Inc. He recently completed some roof repairs for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Leo was professional, honest, responsive, and clearly takes pride in his work. He explained everything thoroughly, showed up on time, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The quality of the repairs was excellent, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about doing the job right. It’s hard to find contractors you can truly trust, but Leo absolutely earned my confidence. I highly recommend Leo and Semper Fi Restoration Inc. to anyone needing roofing work or repairs. Outstanding service from start to finish!
Michael Kerr
Josh Bosley and Semper Fi Restoration recently completed hail damage work on our residence. Josh handled EVERYTHING with our insurance company. The work was completed on time, as promised. Clean-up was great. Josh came back and guaranteed we were happy with everything - including fixing two small areas that we felt needed additional work. He ensured we were 100% happy prior to moving on. He was a great communicator, very patient with us, and made us extremely happy that we chose him and Semper Fi. I rarely leave reviews - but would highly recommend him. Final note, our insurance agent recommended him to us and he was as great as advertised.
Sharine Webber
Semper Fi Restoration recently completed installing a new roof and we are so impressed with the service from start to finish. Leo Jett thoroughly explained the whole process and answered all of our questions. He was a huge help with the insurance claims and demonstrated a sincere desire to make sure everything was done professionally and to the highest standards. The crew were hard workers and also demonstrated the same commitment to completing the job right. Leo always followed up with us and made sure we didn't have any concerns or questions. We highly recommend Semper Fi Restoration!!
Jeff Cisneros
Josh is absolutely amazing, his service and follow-up is thr best I have ever experienced. The thing that really impressed me was his honesty after inspection, he shared that I didn't need a new roof. There are very few companies with that level of honesty. He has earned a customer for life.
Judy B
Leo Jett was fabulous! He walked me through every step of the process and made this a great experience. His customer service was more than I could have hoped for. After spending 25 years in the HOA business, Semper Fi would be a contractor I would recommend to anyone needing a new roof.

We worked with Josh and his crew to get our badly damaged roof repaired. Josh had no hesitation to get over as soon as he could walk the roof spent hours doing his inspection to make sure everything was covered not one thing was left out. He was very thorough. I am a person that wants to understand everything and he had no hesitation to explain and walk me through every process. I highly recommend Semper Fi Restoration. They are honest and will get the job done right
Emergency Roof Repair in Centennial FAQs
Should I get up there and put a tarp on it myself?
No. That's the single most dangerous thing a homeowner does in this situation. A wet, hail-struck or wind-damaged roof is loose underfoot. Standing on it can also add marks that get read as mechanical damage on a claim. Do the indoor part and leave the roof.
Will somebody come out in the evening or at the weekend?
We take the call, and for a genuine emergency we go out. It's handled case by case rather than as a blanket promise, and describing what's actually happening is what settles it. We answer regular calls seven days a week, 9am to 5pm.
Nothing is leaking, but shingles came off in the wind. Is that an emergency?
It depends what's under them. Missing shingles with the underlayment intact and clear weather ahead can be a scheduled repair. Exposed decking, or a torn area with snow or rain coming, shouldn't sit. Send a photograph from the ground and we'll tell you which one it is.
Will insurance pay for the emergency work?
Insurers often treat it separately from the permanent repair. That's one reason we photograph the emergency work as it's done. Whether it's covered comes down to your policy and what caused the damage, so it's a question for your carrier. We'll give you the documentation either way.
What happens to the cover when you do the proper repair?
It comes off as part of the repair. A cover is a short-term measure, not a roof, and Greater Denver Area wind and sun work on one steadily. It's there to hold the line until the permanent work is scheduled.
There's a stain spreading on the ceiling but nothing is dripping. Is that an emergency?
A stain that's actively spreading means water is moving up there right now. It's worth a call rather than a wait, particularly if the weather isn't done. A stain that's been the same size for months is a different thing and it belongs in normal hours. Either way, don't make a hole in the ceiling to let it out. The exception is a bulging ceiling, and only if somebody has told you to.
I signed with somebody after a storm and my claim has now been denied. What can I do?
Once you've had written notice that the claim was denied, Colorado gives you three days to cancel that contract. You get your deposit back too. That's state law. It's worth acting on rather than sitting with, because the window is short.
