Storms can push water through damaged shingles, flashing, siding, windows, and other openings. Fast restoration helps limit damage to drywall, insulation, flooring, and structural materials.
What the Job Involves
The property is checked for storm entry points, standing water, and moisture in walls, ceilings, floors, and insulation. Water is extracted, damaged materials are assessed, and affected areas are dried with professional equipment.
Signs You Need It
- Water entering through the roof or windows
- Ceiling or wall stains
- Wet carpet or flooring
- Damp drywall or insulation
- Standing water after a storm
- Musty odors or trapped moisture
How the Work Goes
The storm-damaged areas are inspected first and the source of water intrusion is identified. Standing water is removed, moisture readings are taken, and damaged materials are removed when they cannot be salvaged. Air movers and dehumidifiers are used to dry the remaining structure.
What Affects the Cost
Cost depends on the amount of water, affected rooms, roof or exterior damage, flooring and drywall condition, structural moisture, and how long the materials remained wet. Hidden moisture can increase the restoration scope.
