Texas weather is legendary—and not always in a good way. From torrential downpours to hail storms that rattle shingles, your home can sustain multiple damage types in a single event. When Mother Nature strikes, it’s critical to have a local, experienced restoration partner ready to jump into action.


Common Storm Damage Scenarios

Roof Leaks & Ceiling Water Intrusion

Hail, high winds, or fallen tree limbs can puncture roofing, allowing water to flow into attic insulation and ceilings—often unnoticed until staining or sagging appears.


Flooded Basements & Crawl Spaces

Flash floods can overwhelm French drains and sump pumps. Water pools in low areas, soaking floor joists, insulation, and personal belongings stored below.


Broken Windows & Wind-Driven Debris

Shattered glass and wind-blown objects turn a minor break into a house-wide hazard. Water enters directly, and additional wind gusts drive debris deeper into living spaces.


Emergency Storm Damage Response


Board-Up & Tarping Services

  • Secure Openings: We cover broken windows with plywood and roofs with heavy-duty tarps to prevent further water intrusion.

  • Temporary Fencing: Keeps out curious trespassers and wildlife.


Water Extraction & Debris Removal

  • Industrial Pumps & Vacuums: Remove standing water from floors, walls, and foundations.

  • Debris Clearing: Leaf piles, roofing shards, tree branches, and building materials are hauled away safely.

  • Sanitization: We treat floodwater zones with disinfectants to eliminate bacteria and prevent odors.


Structural Drying & Repair Prep


Demolition & Debris Haul-Away

Damaged drywall, insulation, flooring, and cabinetry are selectively removed—leaving sound structures intact. Debris is loaded onto dumpsters and recycled when possible.


Drying Equipment Deployment

  • High-Velocity Air Movers: Deliver up to 3,500 CFM of airflow, attacking moisture in wood framing and subfloors.

  • Desiccant Dehumidifiers: Pull moisture even at low temperatures, crucial during cooler storm seasons.

  • Continuous Monitoring: Digital moisture sensors relay real-time data, guiding equipment adjustments.


Navigating Insurance Claims

Storm damage claims require detailed documentation. Our process includes:

  • Comprehensive Scope of Loss: Itemized report of affected areas, equipment logs, and cost estimates.

  • Photographic Evidence: Before, during, and after shots capture every phase.

  • Adjuster Liaison: We communicate directly with your insurance representative—clarifying technical details and advocating for full coverage.


Faster, well-documented claims lead to quicker repairs—reducing your out-of-pocket expenses and stress.
