Storm Damage Restoration Work in 76204
Storm Damage Water Extraction
Rainwater that came in through a roof, window or door is removed from floors, carpet and the space under cabinets before it soaks into walls.
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.
Emergency Roof Tarping
Tarping keeps the attic and ceilings from getting wet again during the storms that often follow the first one.
Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
After a hailstorm, leaks may not show for days. Ceiling stains and wet insulation are checked and dried, and the damaged spots are noted for the roofer.
Debris Removal After Storm
Mud, broken glass, wet insulation and branches that came into the house are cleared so extraction and drying can reach the floors and walls.
Signs of Storm Water Damage in Your 76204 Home
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.
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
Wet Carpet Near Windows and Doors
Damp carpet or swollen flooring along exterior walls shows that rain was driven in around frames or under doors.
Dented Vents and Skylights
Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 76204
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.
How Storms Let Water Into 76204 Homes
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.
Flying Debris
Outdoor furniture, signs and branches carried by wind can break glass and doors and let rain into the home.
Fallen Trees and Limbs
Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.
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 76204
Residential Storm Damage Restoration
For homeowners, the first job after a storm is stopping more water from getting in. Board-up and tarping come first, then extraction and drying.
Commercial Storm Damage Restoration
Property managers get moisture readings and photos for each affected unit or suite, which helps when several tenants and insurers are involved.
When Storm Damage Is Too Big for DIY
A wet-dry vacuum can pick up small amounts of water from hard floors. Soaked carpet, walls and ceilings need extraction and drying equipment to dry fully.
Factors in Storm Damage Cleanup Cost in 76204
Board-up and tarping, debris removal, water extraction and drying are each priced separately, so the total depends on which ones your home needs.
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.
Debris Inside
Mud, glass, branches and wet insulation inside the house take time to clear and dispose of.
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.

Questions About Storm Damage Restoration
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 (214) 730-5993 for board-up, tarping and drying.
How soon should storm cleanup start?
As soon as it is safe. Wet drywall, carpet and insulation can start to grow mold in 24 to 48 hours, and open roofs and windows let in more rain.
What records will I get for my insurance claim?
Photos of the damage, daily moisture readings and a list of removed materials, which you can share with your adjuster.
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.
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.
