CERTIFICATIONS AND AFFILIATIONS
When Should You Call a Storm Damage Cleanup Company?
1. Immediately After Severe Weather
The hours following a storm are critical. Even small issues can quickly become major problems. Calling a cleanup company right away helps secure the property, remove hazards, and begin drying before further damage sets in.
2. When Flooding or Standing Water Is Present
Stormwater seeps into floors, walls, and furniture, leading to structural damage and mold growth. Professionals use pumps and drying equipment to remove water safely and restore the property.
3. If You Notice Roof or Structural Damage
High winds and falling debris can break windows, tear off shingles, or weaken the building frame. Cleanup crews can stabilize the property, provide temporary repairs, and prepare it for full restoration.
4. When Debris Piles Up on Your Property
Branches, roofing materials, and glass scattered across your property can be unsafe. A storm damage cleanup team safely removes and disposes of debris so repairs can begin promptly.
5. If Mold or Odors Start to Develop
Moisture left behind after a storm often leads to mold within days. Musty smells or visible patches are signs you need professional cleanup to control moisture, remediate mold, and improve air quality.
6. To Help with Insurance Claims
Cleanup companies provide reports, photos, and estimates that simplify the claims process. This makes it easier to get coverage approved and speeds up recovery.
What's our process like when doing our Storm Damage Cleanup services?
When handling storm damage, our process starts with a complete evaluation of the property. We check for every type of damage such as flooding, roof leaks, fallen debris, and hidden moisture so nothing is missed. After the assessment, we act quickly to remove standing water, clear away dangerous debris, and secure the structure to prevent more damage.
Once the property is stabilized, we continue with the restoration phase. This includes advanced drying to remove excess moisture, sanitizing all affected areas, and completing the necessary repairs to bring the building back to a safe and reliable condition. Each step is performed with care and attention to detail so the property is fully restored and protected for the future.
Specific Work Practices Include:
- Our storm damage cleanup process begins with a detailed inspection guided by IICRC S500 and S550 standards. This step allows us to evaluate the extent of water intrusion, identify hidden moisture, and create a clear plan of action for restoring the property.
- Using industry-approved methods, we remove excess water, clear away debris, and apply advanced drying equipment to stabilize the structure and prevent further damage.
- Throughout the process, our team closely monitors moisture levels to ensure the property is dried to safe standards. This careful approach helps prevent mold growth, structural weakening, and other long-term issues that can follow severe storms.
