Signs to look for

When to call us for storm water removal

So the repair lasts, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

Water appeared in two or more separate places

With sound workmanship in mind, that means multiple breaches or one breach feeding several paths.

A window is broken or a door was forced open by wind

For a job done right, wind driven rain enters an opening at volume, not a trickle.

Shingles are missing and a ceiling is wet on the windward side

So the repair lasts, wind lifts shingles and rain follows the same direction it came from. For a job done right, the wet ceiling is more often than not on the side the storm hit.

Siding, soffit or trim millwork millwork is torn loose and the wall inside feels damp

With sound workmanship in mind, torn cladding gives sideways rain a direct path into the wall assembly.

A gable vent or attic vent took rain straight in

So the repair lasts, vents are designed for air, not for horizontal water.

Water is standing at a threshold, in a window well or against the foundation

Before the finish work begins, that is water at grade as opposed to rain from above, and it is a different peril on your policy.

What happens

How we see to storm water removal

Our workmanship team adjusts the work to what soaked up water, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be preserved.

Entry safety before anyone goes inside

Before the finish work begins, power to the damage footprint goes off before anyone enters. So the repair lasts, nobody reaches blindly into water or debris, because displaced snakes, rodents and insects shelter in exactly those places.

A breach inventory of the whole building

For a job done right, 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

So the repair lasts, openings get covered and sealed so the next band of weather does not add a second loss.

The two water sources separated on paper

For a job done right, rain that entered through a wind created opening and water that rose at grade are written into the job file as different events.

High volume removal matched to each kind of water

Before the finish work begins, 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 job done right, sideways rain loads assemblies that look untouched from the room. With sound workmanship in mind, we read them with a moisture meter and open what holds water.

So the repair lasts, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. So the repair lasts, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Emergency board up, per window or door openingSo the repair lasts, national estimate per opening, materials and labor, on the first visit.$75 to $250
Emergency board up and tarping to close a damaged building envelopeBefore the finish work begins, national estimate for several openings plus a roof tarp. With sound workmanship in mind, height and pitch drive the spread.$500 to $2,500
Basement storm water pump out and extraction, water onlySo the repair lasts, national estimate for removal without demolition, same band as any outdoor water pump out.$600 to $2,500
Storm water removal and drying, one level, rain through a breachBefore the finish work begins, national estimate for clean rain in ceilings, walls and flooring with three to five drying days.$2,500 to $8,000
Storm flooding at grade, one level with a flood cut and disposalBefore the finish work begins, national estimate including removal, cleaning, disinfection, disposal and drying.$4,000 to $12,000
Storm water cleanup priced by affected area, water that came from outsideFor a job done right, national estimate covering removal, cleaning, disinfection and drying.$7 to $15 per square foot
Storm debris removal and disposal, per container loadBefore the finish work begins, national estimate per container of storm debris, soaked material and unsalvageable contents.$400 to $900
After hours or overnight dispatch chargeNational estimate for nights, weekends and holidays, billed once as opposed to per hour.$100 to $400 nationally

  • How many openings have to be closed
    Before the finish work begins, board up is priced per opening and tarping by roof area and pitch.

  • Where the water came from
    Before the finish work begins, clean rain through a breach is a straightforward drying job.

  • Depth and area affected
    For a job done right, a wet room on the wind side is a different job from a lower level with a foot of water.

  • How many assemblies are wet
    Storms often wet ceilings, walls and floors in the same room. Three assemblies mean three sets of moisture values and equipment on all of them.

  • Finished or unfinished space
    Bare block and slab clean up swiftly. Once flooring, framed walls, insulation and trim millwork are involved, the job adds removal and rebuild.

  • Storm debris and disposal volume
    Before the finish work begins, yard debris, blown material and soaked contents go out as waste.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Before the finish work begins, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

The next band of the storm uses the same opening

Before the finish work begins, storms travel in lines and the second cell often arrives within hours.

The entry point you did not find keeps working

So the repair lasts, people close the obvious hole and miss the gable vent or the torn soffit.

Debris on the roof keeps loading it

So the repair lasts, limbs and blown material hold water and add weight to an already damaged deck.

One storm brings two kinds of water and they cannot be treated alike

So the repair lasts, rain in a ceiling is clean water.

How the next step is decided

Board up covers broken glass and forced openings so the next band of rain stays outside.

Read the explanation

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

Read the explanation
