Heeeeelp. Roof leak

SailinAway · 07-18-2021, 06:59 AM

I have a bit of a roofing emergency. During the heavy windstorms earlier this year my roof lost a lot of shingles. I have an appointment with a roofer to replace the roof in October. He had no openings before that. As of today's rain, it's clear the roof isn't going to make it to October. I checked the attic and it's leaking in several places and the wallpaper is peeling, so there has been damage to the drywall upstairs and there's an active leak downstairs. I'm a senior citizen (female) living alone. I'm reaching out to the forum for two things: (1) A roofer who could replace my roof very soon. (2) A handyman who could cover the roof with a tarp in the meantime. Please feel free to answer here or send me a private message. Can anyone help, please? Thank you for any and all information.
