Storm Damage Restoration Work in 48307
Storm Flooded Basement Cleanup
Storm water that floods a basement is pumped out, wet carpet and drywall are removed and the slab and walls are cleaned and dried.
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
Storm water inside exterior walls often shows up as bubbling paint or a damp baseboard. Drying the cavity keeps the framing from rotting.
Wind-Driven Rain Drying
When high winds drive rain into a home, water often runs down inside exterior walls. Meters find it, and drywall is opened where needed to dry it.
Emergency Roof Tarping
Torn or missing roof sections are covered with a heavy tarp so no more rain reaches the attic while the inside is dried.
Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
Water that gets in through hail damage is removed from the attic, wet insulation is pulled and the ceiling below is dried.
How to Tell a Storm Let Water Inside
Missing or Lifted Shingles
Shingles on the lawn or lifted at the edges after a storm mean the roof deck is exposed to the next rain.
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
Ceiling Stains After a Storm
New brown rings or damp spots on the ceiling after high wind or hail mean water is getting through the roof.
Wet Attic Insulation
Damp or matted insulation in the attic after a storm means rain is getting past the roof deck.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 48307
Step 1: Safety Check
Power to wet areas is shut off and damaged ceilings or broken glass are marked so no one gets hurt during the work.
Step 2: Extract the Water
Standing water is pulled from floors and carpet, and water above ceilings is drained so it does not keep dripping.
Step 3: Wind-Driven Rain Drying
Exterior walls that took wind-driven rain are checked with meters and opened where needed so the cavities can dry.
Step 4: Final Readings
When walls, floors and framing read dry, equipment is removed and repairs to the roof, windows and drywall can go ahead.
Where Storm Water Gets Into a House
Flash Flooding
Sudden heavy rain can send water across yards and under doors faster than drains and gutters can carry it away.
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.
Flying Debris
Outdoor furniture, signs and branches carried by wind can break glass and doors and let rain into the home.
Roof Damage From Wind
High winds lift and tear shingles and flashing, exposing the roof deck to rain that soaks into the attic.

Board-Up and Tarping

Storm Damage Restoration FAQs
Can storm damage lead to mold?
It can if materials stay wet for a day or two. Prompt extraction, removal of soaked insulation and measured drying keep that from happening.
Do I need to leave my home during storm cleanup?
Usually not, unless the damage makes the home unsafe or power is out. Wet areas are closed off while equipment runs.
What is emergency board-up?
Plywood is fastened over broken windows and doors so rain and wind stay out and the home is secure while it dries.
Is storm water dirty?
Rain coming through a roof is usually clean at first. Water that came in from outside across the ground is treated as dirty and needs cleaning as well as drying.
What records will I get for my insurance claim?
Photos of the damage, daily moisture readings and a list of removed materials, which you can share with your adjuster.
