What To Do First
Follow these steps in order. Tap each item when it's done.
What NOT To Do
These are the most common mistakes that worsen damage and complicate your insurance claim.
DO NOT:Don't start interior repairs before documentation
Removing debris or making repairs before an adjuster sees the damage can reduce the claim value significantly.
DO NOT:Don't walk on a storm-damaged roof
Damaged roofing may not support weight, and roof edges may be compromised. Leave assessment to our crews.
DO NOT:Don't wait on tarping
Every rain event after a storm opens a roof further and drives additional water damage into the structure. Same-day tarping pays for itself many times over.
DO NOT:Don't assume damage is only cosmetic
Storm-driven water intrusion often penetrates into wall cavities and insulation where it can't be seen, causing mold within 48 hours.
Not sure if something is safe to do? Call us at (757) 285-5963 before acting. We'd rather answer a question than have you make the damage worse.
Our Storm Damage Process
Every job follows the same documented process — no surprises, no shortcuts. Here's exactly what happens from first call to final sign-off.
Emergency tarping and board-up
Our crews respond immediately to install heavy-duty roof tarps and board up damaged windows and doors to stop water intrusion.
Debris removal and site safety
We safely remove fallen trees, branches, and debris, and establish a safe working perimeter for the restoration team.
Moisture intrusion assessment
Thermal imaging and moisture meters map all areas of water penetration — visible and hidden — to establish the full remediation scope.
Structural drying and dehumidification
Industrial drying equipment is deployed throughout the affected structure until all moisture readings return to dry standard.
Structural and roofing repairs
Our reconstruction team completes all storm-related structural repairs, including roofing, siding, windows, and framing.
Interior restoration
Drywall, flooring, insulation, and finishes are restored to pre-storm condition with full insurance documentation.
Documentation at every step. We photograph, log, and report every phase of the process — giving you a complete paper trail for your insurance carrier and your own records.
