What Storm Damage Restoration Covers in 90604
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.
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.
Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
Hail can crack shingles, skylights and vent caps, and the next rain finds those cracks. The pros dry the attic and ceilings where the water got in.
Storm Damage Water Extraction
Rainwater that came in through a roof, window or door is removed from floors, carpet and the space under cabinets before it soaks into walls.
Emergency Board Up Services
Plywood is fastened over broken glass and damaged doors right after the storm. It stays until the window or door can be replaced.
Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
Wet Carpet Near Windows and Doors
Damp carpet or swollen flooring along exterior walls shows that rain was driven in around frames or under doors.
Wet Attic Insulation
Damp or matted insulation in the attic after a storm means rain is getting past the roof deck.
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.
