What gets handled

The Full Storm Water Damage Restoration Process

Storm water enters from above and from the sides, so the work moves from the outside in: seal the building, then dry and repair the interior.

T

Emergency Roof Tarping

Heavy-duty tarps are secured over damaged roof sections with battens so wind does not lift them, keeping rain out until permanent roof repairs.

B

Securing Windows and Doors

Broken windows, damaged doors, and openings from fallen limbs are boarded to keep out rain, wind, and intruders.

A

Attic Insulation and Decking Drying

Soaked blown-in or batt insulation is removed, roof decking and rafters are dried, and the attic is checked for mold before new insulation goes in.

C

Ceiling and Wall Repair

Water-damaged ceilings and walls are removed, dried, rebuilt, and painted.

D

Interior Drying and Dehumidification

Air movers and dehumidifiers dry ceilings, walls, and floors below the leak until moisture readings confirm the structure is dry.

Common questions

What People Ask After a Storm

Climbing a wet, damaged roof is dangerous. A professional tarp is safer and more likely to hold. Many policies cover reasonable emergency tarping costs.

Damage from wind and rain entering through a storm-damaged roof or window is often covered. Rising floodwater from outside usually is not. Check your policy with your agent.

Ask for a local address, proof of license and insurance, and a written estimate. Be cautious with anyone demanding large upfront payments or pushing you to sign immediately.

Rarely. Blown-in cellulose clumps and loses its insulating value, and fiberglass can trap moisture against the decking. Most soaked insulation should be replaced.

Within 24 to 48 hours. Mold can start growing on wet insulation, drywall, and wood framing quickly, and another storm can make it worse.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service connecting you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who do the work.
