What Storm Damage Restoration Covers in 77496
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
When siding is torn or cracked in a storm, rain gets into the wall. The inside is dried while the outside is covered until it can be repaired.
Emergency Board Up Services
Broken windows and doors are covered with plywood so rain and wind stop coming in and the home is secure while drying runs.
Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
Water that gets in through hail damage is removed from the attic, wet insulation is pulled and the ceiling below is dried.
Storm Damage Water Extraction
After a storm, water is extracted room by room with pumps and extractors, starting with the areas where it is deepest.
Wind-Driven Rain Drying
When high winds drive rain into a home, water often runs down inside exterior walls. Meters find it, and drywall is opened where needed to dry it.
When Storm Damage Needs Professional Cleanup
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.
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.
Dented Vents and Skylights
Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.
Bubbling Paint on Exterior Walls
Paint that bubbles on the inside of an exterior wall after a storm points to water that got behind the siding.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 77496
Step 1: Damage Walkthrough
The pros check every room, the attic and the outside of the house to see where water got in and how far it spread.
Step 2: Cover the Openings
Tarps and plywood go over damaged roof sections, windows and doors before extraction starts.
Step 3: Remove Soaked Materials
Carpet pad, insulation and drywall that are too wet to dry in place are cut out and bagged.
Step 4: Document for the Claim
Photos, moisture readings and a list of removed materials are put together for you to share with your insurer.
What Causes Water Damage After Storms in 77496?
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.
Hail Impact
Hail cracks shingles, skylights and vent caps, opening small gaps that leak during the storms that follow.
Storm Damage Restoration for Homes and Businesses in 77496
Residential Storm Damage Restoration
When a storm opens a roof, water can reach the attic, the ceiling and the rooms below. The pros dry each level and point out wood that looks soft for the roofer.
Commercial Storm Damage Restoration
Flat commercial roofs can leak across a wide area during a storm. The pros remove wet ceiling tiles, extract the water and dry the space around business hours.
Storm Cleanup: DIY or Professional?
Stay clear of downed power lines and do not enter rooms with standing water near outlets. Turn off power to wet areas only if you can reach the panel safely.
Pricing Storm Damage Cleanup in 77496
Repairs to the roof, windows and siding are separate from water removal. The pros price the board-up, extraction and drying inside the house.
Rooms Affected
Each wet room needs extraction, drying equipment and moisture checks, so the number of rooms sets much of the cost.
Timing of the Work
Work during or right after a storm, at night or on a weekend, can carry a higher rate than scheduled work.
Water Source
Rain coming through a roof is cleaner than floodwater from outside. Dirty water means more cleaning and removal of porous materials.
Does Insurance Cover Storm Damage Restoration?
Many homeowner policies cover water damage from wind and hail when the storm opens the roof or breaks windows. Flood water from outside usually needs a separate flood policy.

Common Questions After Storm Damage
Is storm water dirty?
Rain coming through a roof is usually clean at first. Water that came in from outside across the ground is treated as dirty and needs cleaning as well as drying.
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 is emergency board-up?
Plywood is fastened over broken windows and doors so rain and wind stay out and the home is secure while it dries.
Should debris be removed before the adjuster visits?
Take photos and video first. Your insurer can tell you what to keep for the adjuster, but wet debris inside the house may need to be removed to prevent more 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.
