Signs to look for

When to call us for storm water removal

In simple terms, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

Water appeared in two or more separate places

To keep the next step clear, that means multiple breaches or one breach feeding several paths.

A window is broken or a door was forced open by wind

Before cleanup moves forward, wind driven rain enters an opening at volume, not a trickle. For your property, a single broken window can wet a whole room and the ceiling below it.

Shingles are missing and a ceiling is wet on the windward side

In simple terms, wind lifts shingles and rain follows the same direction it came from. Before cleanup moves forward, the wet ceiling is generally on the side the storm hit.

Siding, soffit or trim is torn loose and the wall inside feels damp

To keep the next step clear, torn cladding gives sideways rain a direct path into the wall assembly.

A gable vent or attic vent took rain straight in

In simple terms, vents are designed for air, not for horizontal water. In simple terms, after a high wind event they are one of the most common ways water reaches an attic.

Water is standing at a threshold, in a window well or against the foundation

For your property, that is water at grade rather than rain from above, and it is a different peril on your policy.

What happens

How we handle storm water removal

Our water-damage team adjusts the work to where the water reached, where the water went, and the materials that can be saved.

Entry safety before anyone goes inside

For your property, power to the water-damaged area goes off before anyone enters. In simple terms, nobody reaches blindly into water or debris, because displaced snakes, rodents and insects shelter in exactly those places.

A breach inventory of the whole building

Before cleanup moves forward, we walk every elevation and the roof line and list each opening: roof breach, broken window, torn siding, failed soffit, gable vent, garage door.

Emergency board up and tarping to close the envelope

In simple terms, openings get covered and sealed so the next band of weather does not add a second loss.

The two water sources separated on paper

In simple terms, rain that entered through a wind created opening and water that rose at grade get written down as different events.

High volume removal matched to each kind of water

For your property, submersible pumps move the bulk from a flooded level and a truck mounted extractor pulls water from carpet and hard floors.

Ceilings, walls and insulation on the wind side opened and read

Before cleanup moves forward, sideways rain loads assemblies that look untouched from the room. To keep the next step clear, we read them with a moisture meter and open what holds water.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We explain in plain language the step-by-step cleanup plan and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
Emergency board up, per window or door opening	In simple terms, national estimate per opening, materials and labor, on the first visit.	$75 to $250
Emergency board up and tarping to close a damaged building envelope	For your property, national estimate for several openings plus a roof tarp. To keep the next step clear, height and pitch drive the spread.	$500 to $2,500
Basement storm water pump out and extraction, water only	In simple terms, national estimate for removal without demolition, same band as any outdoor water pump out.	$600 to $2,500
Storm water removal and drying, one level, rain through a breach	For your property, national estimate for clean rain in ceilings, walls and flooring with three to five drying days.	$2,500 to $8,000
Storm flooding at grade, one level with a flood cut and disposal	For your property, national estimate including removal, cleaning, disinfection, disposal and drying.	$4,000 to $12,000
Storm water cleanup priced by affected area, water that came from outside	Before cleanup moves forward, national estimate covering removal, cleaning, disinfection and drying.	$7 to $15 per square foot
Storm debris removal and disposal, per container load	For your property, national estimate per container of storm debris, soaked material and unsalvageable contents.	$400 to $900
After hours or overnight dispatch charge	In simple terms, national estimate for nights, weekends and holidays, billed once rather than per hour.	$100 to $400 nationally

How many openings have to be closed
For your property, board up is priced per opening and tarping by roof area and pitch.
Where the water came from
For your property, clean rain through a breach is a straightforward drying job.
Depth and area affected
Before cleanup moves forward, a wet room on the wind side is a different job from a lower level with a foot of water.
How many assemblies are wet
Storms regularly wet ceilings, walls and floors in the same room. Three assemblies mean three sets of readings and equipment on all of them.
Finished or unfinished space
Bare block and slab clean up as soon as possible. Once flooring, framed walls, insulation and trim are involved, the job adds removal and rebuild.
Storm debris and disposal volume
For your property, yard debris, blown material and soaked contents go out as waste. Before cleanup moves forward, disposal is priced by volume and it climbs faster than people expect.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Water might keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

The next band of the storm uses the same opening

In simple terms, storms travel in lines and the second cell regularly arrives within hours. In simple terms, an uncovered breach turns one loss into two, and the second one is harder to claim.

The entry point you did not find keeps working

In simple terms, people close the obvious hole and miss the gable vent or the torn soffit.

Debris on the roof keeps loading it

In simple terms, limbs and blown material hold water and add weight to an already damaged deck.

One storm brings two kinds of water and they cannot be treated alike

In simple terms, rain in a ceiling is clean water.

Helpful service information

What to know about storm water removal

Begin with the short explanation. Open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

The first is wind driven rain, which is rain moving sideways fast enough to defeat details built for water falling down.

Read the explanation

Storms get water inside two completely different ways, and telling them apart is the whole job. The first is wind driven rain, which is rain moving sideways fast enough to defeat details built for water falling down.

How the next step is decided

To keep the next step clear, board up covers broken glass and forced openings so the next band of rain stays outside.

Read the explanation

In simple terms, closing the building envelope is the part of storm work that saves the most money, and it has to happen first.

What may change the work

A storm that wets flooring only is a light load.

Read the explanation

The drying steps changes with how many assemblies got wet. A storm that wets flooring only is a light load.

Common questions

Questions about storm water removal

How much does storm flood water removal cost?

To keep the next step clear, nationally, one level with rain through a breach generally runs about $2,500 to $8,000. Before cleanup moves forward, storm flooding at grade with a flood cut generally runs $4,000 to $12,000.

Does homeowners insurance cover storm flooding?

For your property, it depends on how the water got in. In simple terms, rain entering through an opening the wind made is normally covered by your homeowners policy.

What is the difference between wind damage and flood damage on my claim?

To keep the next step clear, wind damage is the broken opening and the rain that came through it. Before cleanup moves forward, flood damage is water that arrived at grade level from outside.

Do you board up windows and tarp roofs, or is that someone else?

For your property, we do emergency board up and tarping as part of the water job, because leaving the building open costs you a second loss.

How do you know you found every place the water came in?

For your property, we walk every elevation and the roof line and list each opening before the drying steps begin. To keep the next step clear, then we read walls and ceilings on the wind side with a moisture meter.

Is storm water contaminated?

Before cleanup moves forward, it depends on the path it took. In simple terms, rain that came straight through a roof or window is clean water at first.

Can I clean up the storm water myself?

To keep the next step clear, you can handle a small amount of clean rain on a hard floor.
