When You're Looking at an Active Leak
A roof emergency rarely happens at a convenient time. It's usually the middle of a snowstorm, the night after a hailstorm, or the moment you notice a brown stain spreading across the ceiling. Whatever caused it, the clock is running the second water finds its way inside.
DG Contracting handles the situations that can't wait: active leaks, storm-torn shingles, fallen limbs through the deck, ice-dam backups, and wind-lifted flashing. We stabilize the roof first to stop the damage, then come back with a permanent, warranty-backed repair so the same spot doesn't fail again next season.
If you have water entering your home right now, call us at (509) 209-1894 before you do anything else.
What Our Emergency Service Includes
Every emergency call is different, but our response follows a consistent priority: protect the structure, then fix the cause. Depending on what we find, that can mean:
- Emergency tarping — heavy-duty tarps fastened and sealed to cover breaches and keep water out until repairs are complete.
- Leak tracing — water rarely enters where it shows up inside, so we track it back to the true source.
- Temporary patching of punctures, blow-offs, and lifted areas.
- Flashing and penetration sealing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys.
- Ice-dam relief and snow-load assessment during winter events.
- Debris and limb removal where it's safe to clear damage.
Once the emergency is contained, we give you a clear, written plan for the permanent fix — whether that's a targeted repair or, in storm cases, a full roof repair or replacement.
Why Emergencies Hit Hard in the Inland Northwest
Our climate is uniquely tough on roofs. Spokane and North Idaho see hot, dry summers followed by heavy snow loads, brutal freeze-thaw cycles, and the kind of wind and hail storms that roll through fast and leave damage behind.
Each of those conditions creates its own emergency. Heavy snow overloads weak decking and forms ice dams that push water under shingles. Freeze-thaw cycles work moisture into tiny cracks and split them open. Wind and hail tear granules, lift tabs, and crack older shingles in a single afternoon.
Because we live and work here, we know exactly what these storms do and where roofs tend to fail first. That local knowledge means faster diagnosis and a repair that's built for the next winter, not just this leak.

Why GAF Master Elite & Our Warranty Matter
In an emergency, it's tempting to call whoever can come the fastest. But a rushed, low-quality patch often becomes next year's leak. DG Contracting brings credentials that very few local roofers can match.
We're a GAF Master Elite contractor — a certification held by only the top 2 to 3 percent of roofers in the country. It requires proven workmanship, full licensing and insurance, and ongoing training. That status also lets us back our work with the strongest warranties available.
Permanent repairs and replacements are protected by our 15-year workmanship warranty, with GAF Golden Pledge material coverage of 30 and 50 years on qualifying systems. When the storm passes, you're left with a roof you can stop worrying about. Explore the details on our warranties page.
Homes and Businesses — We Cover Both
Emergencies don't stop at residential roofs. A leak in a commercial flat or TPO roof can shut down operations and damage inventory fast. DG Contracting responds to commercial emergencies too — from membrane punctures to ponding and flashing failures on low-slope systems.
Whether it's your family home in Colbert or a storefront in downtown Spokane, the same family-owned crew that's been serving the Inland Northwest since 2013 will be the one protecting your property.
