Signs to look for
When to call us for storm water removal
Room by room, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
A window is broken or a door was forced open by wind
For a practical next step, wind driven rain enters an opening at volume, not a trickle.
Shingles are missing and a ceiling is wet on the windward side
Room by room, wind lifts shingles and rain follows the same direction it came from. For a practical next step, the wet ceiling is usually on the side the storm hit.
Siding, soffit or trim is torn loose and the wall inside feels damp
To help your home recover, torn cladding gives sideways rain a direct path into the wall assembly.
A gable vent or attic vent took rain straight in
Room by room, vents are designed for air, not for horizontal water. Room by room, after a high wind event they are one of the most common ways water reaches an attic.
Water is standing at a threshold, in a window well or against the foundation
After you describe the problem, that is water at grade rather than rain from above, and it is a different peril on your policy.
What happens
How we handle storm water removal
Our home recovery team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.
Entry safety before anyone goes inside
Room by room, power to the affected area goes off before anyone enters.
A breach inventory of the whole building
For a practical next step, we walk every elevation and the roof line and list each opening: roof breach, broken window, torn siding, failed soffit, gable vent, garage door.
Emergency board up and tarping to close the envelope
Room by room, openings get covered and sealed so the next band of weather does not add a second loss.
The two water sources separated on paper
To help your home recover, rain that entered through a wind created opening and water that rose at grade are documented as different events.
High volume removal matched to each kind of water
After you describe the problem, submersible pumps move the bulk from a flooded level and a truck mounted extractor pulls water from carpet and hard floors.
Ceilings, walls and insulation on the wind side opened and read
For a practical next step, sideways rain loads assemblies that look untouched from the room. To help your home recover, we read them with a moisture meter and open what holds water.

Why timing matters
What can happen when the area stays wet
After you describe the problem, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.
The next band of the storm uses the same opening
After you describe the problem, storms travel in lines and the second cell often arrives within hours.
The entry point you did not find keeps working

Debris on the roof keeps loading it

Helpful service information
What to know about storm water removal
To help your home recover, start with the short explanation. After you describe the problem, open a card if you want a little more detail.
What is happening inside the property
After you describe the problem, the first is wind driven rain, which is rain moving sideways fast enough to defeat details built for water falling down.
Read the explanation
For a practical next step, storms get water inside two completely different ways, and telling them apart is the whole job.
How the next step is decided
To help your home recover, board up covers broken glass and forced openings so the next band of rain stays outside.
Read the explanation
Room by room, closing the building envelope is the part of storm work that saves the most money, and it has to happen first.
What may change the work
For a practical next step, a storm that wets flooring only is a light load.
Read the explanation

Questions about storm water removal
How much does storm flood water removal cost?
To help your home recover, nationally, one level with rain through a breach usually runs about $2,500 to $8,000.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm flooding?
After you describe the problem, it depends on how the water got in. Room by room, rain entering through an opening the wind made is normally covered by your homeowners policy.
What is the difference between wind damage and flood damage on my claim?
To help your home recover, wind damage is the broken opening and the rain that came through it.
Do you board up windows and tarp roofs, or is that someone else?
After you describe the problem, we do emergency board up and tarping as part of the water job, because leaving the building open costs you a second loss.
How do you know you found every place the water came in?
After you describe the problem, we walk every elevation and the roof line and list each opening before drying starts.
Is storm water contaminated?
For a practical next step, it depends on the path it took. Room by room, rain that came straight through a roof or window is clean water at first.
Can I clean up the storm water myself?
To help your home recover, you can handle a small amount of clean rain on a hard floor.
