The storm tore a section of shingles off the roof, and wind-driven rain poured into the attic for hours. Now the insulation is soaked, the bedroom ceiling has a brown stain spreading across it, and more rain is in the forecast. Storm water damage comes from above, and the first job is keeping more of it from getting in.

After a big storm, every contractor's phone rings at once, and out-of-town crews start knocking on doors. A Water Damage is a free referral service that connects you with independent, licensed and insured contractors near Crivitz who handle emergency tarping, drying, and interior repairs.

Luis F.Storm insurance claim

Climbing a wet, damaged roof is dangerous. A professional tarp is safer and more likely to hold. Many policies cover reasonable emergency tarping costs.
Wind-driven rain through storm damage is usually covered. Outside flooding generally requires flood insurance.
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.
Usually not. Wet insulation loses effectiveness and can hold moisture against the roof deck.
Act within a day or two. Mold grows quickly, and the next rain adds more damage.
