Storm Flooded Basement Cleanup

When heavy rain overwhelms a sump or comes through window wells, the pros extract the water and dry the basement framing and finishes.

Emergency Roof Tarping

When wind or a fallen branch opens the roof, a tarp is fastened over the damage as a stopgap until a roofer makes the repair.

Debris Removal After Storm

Wet debris left in a room keeps the space damp. Clearing it is the first step before the pros extract water and set up drying.

Storm Damage Water Extraction

After a storm, water is extracted room by room with pumps and extractors, starting with the areas where it is deepest.

Emergency Board Up Services

Broken windows and doors are covered with plywood so rain and wind stop coming in and the home is secure while drying runs.

Storm Damage Warning Signs in 30515

Mud or Debris Indoors

Mud, leaves or glass inside the house mean storm water came in from outside and floors need cleaning as well as drying.

Dented Vents and Skylights

Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.

Bubbling Paint on Exterior Walls

Paint that bubbles on the inside of an exterior wall after a storm points to water that got behind the siding.

Musty Smell After Heavy Rain

A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.

How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 30515

Step 1: Emergency Roof Tarping

Openings in the roof from wind or hail are tarped so the attic and ceilings stop taking on water.

Step 2: Hail Damage Leak Cleanup

Water in the attic is removed, wet insulation is pulled and ceilings below are checked for trapped water.

Step 3: Clean Surfaces

Floors and lower walls touched by outside water are cleaned and treated before drying to limit odor and contamination.

Step 4: Structural Drying

Dehumidifiers and air movers dry the attic, walls and floors, with readings taken each day until the targets are met.

How Storms Let Water Into 30515 Homes

Storm Runoff Into Basements

Heavy rain can raise the water around a house and push it through window wells, cracks and floor drains.

Roof Damage From Wind

High winds lift and tear shingles and flashing, exposing the roof deck to rain that soaks into the attic.

Fallen Trees and Limbs

Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.

Overflowing Gutters

Heavy rain can overflow clogged or undersized gutters, sending water down walls and toward the foundation.

Questions About Storm Damage Restoration

Do the pros repair roofs and windows?

They cover them with tarps and plywood so the inside can dry. Permanent roof, window and siding repairs are done by those trades.

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.

Does insurance cover storm damage?

Many policies cover damage from wind and hail. Flooding from rising water outside usually needs a separate flood policy. Your insurer decides coverage.

How soon should storm cleanup start?

As soon as it is safe. Wet drywall, carpet and insulation can start to grow mold in 24 to 48 hours, and open roofs and windows let in more rain.

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.
