Storm Damage Restoration Services in 98029
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.
Emergency Roof Tarping
Tarping keeps the attic and ceilings from getting wet again during the storms that often follow the first one.
Debris Removal After Storm
Storm debris inside a home is bagged and removed first. Floors and walls under it are then cleaned and checked for moisture.
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.
Storm Damage Water Extraction
Storm water that came in from outside may carry dirt and debris, so floors are cleaned as well as extracted before drying begins.
How to Tell a Storm Let Water Inside
Ceiling Stains After a Storm
New brown rings or damp spots on the ceiling after high wind or hail mean water is getting through the roof.
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.
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.
Water in the Basement
Water on the basement floor or seeping through walls after heavy rain means storm runoff found its way inside.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 98029
Step 1: Protect Belongings
Furniture, electronics and stored items in wet rooms are moved, raised or covered before extraction begins.
Step 2: Extraction Room by Room
Water is removed from each affected room, and wet carpet that cannot be saved is pulled up.
Step 3: Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
Water behind siding and inside exterior walls is found with meters and dried through small openings or removed baseboards.
Step 4: Verify and Close Out
Final readings and photos are recorded for each room, so you and your insurer can see the drying results.
Common Causes of Storm Damage in 98029
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.
Flash Flooding
Sudden heavy rain can send water across yards and under doors faster than drains and gutters can carry it away.
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.

Your Storm Damage Restoration Questions Answered
Can storm damage lead to mold?
It can if materials stay wet for a day or two. Prompt extraction, removal of soaked insulation and measured drying keep that from happening.
How do the pros find water inside walls after a storm?
They use moisture meters and thermal cameras along exterior walls, under windows and in the attic to find water that is not visible.
What does storm damage restoration cost?
It depends on how many rooms got wet, whether board-up and tarping are needed and how long drying takes. The pros price the job after seeing the damage.
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.
What should I do first after a storm damages my home?
Stay away from downed power lines, take photos, move belongings away from water and call (253) 453-4973 for board-up, tarping and drying.
