Storm Damage Restoration Services in 78023
Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
Hail can crack shingles, skylights and vent caps, and the next rain finds those cracks. The pros dry the attic and ceilings where the water got in.
Emergency Board Up Services
Board-up closes openings left by flying debris or a fallen limb, which keeps the next round of rain out of rooms already being dried.
Storm Damage Water Extraction
Storm water that came in from outside may carry dirt and debris, so floors are cleaned as well as extracted before drying begins.
Debris Removal After Storm
Wet debris left in a room keeps the space damp. Clearing it is the first step before the pros extract water and set up drying.
Emergency Roof Tarping
Tarping keeps the attic and ceilings from getting wet again during the storms that often follow the first one.
How to Tell a Storm Let Water Inside
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.
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
Broken Windows or Doors
Any broken glass or damaged door lets rain and wind in. The opening needs to be covered before drying can work.
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.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 78023
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 3: Remove Soaked Materials
Carpet pad, insulation and drywall that are too wet to dry in place are cut out and bagged.

Photos, moisture readings and a list of removed materials are put together for you to share with your insurer.
Typical Storm Damage in 78023, Texas
Wind-Driven Rain
Strong winds push rain sideways into window frames, vents and siding joints that keep out normal rain.
Hail Impact
Hail cracks shingles, skylights and vent caps, opening small gaps that leak during the storms that follow.
Flying Debris
Outdoor furniture, signs and branches carried by wind can break glass and doors and let rain into the home.
Overflowing Gutters
Heavy rain can overflow clogged or undersized gutters, sending water down walls and toward the foundation.

Pricing Storm Damage Cleanup in 78023
The cost of storm damage restoration in Helotes depends on how many rooms got wet, whether the roof or windows need covering and how long drying takes.
Board-Up and Tarping
Covering broken windows, doors and roof openings adds materials and labor before drying can start.

Rain coming through a roof is cleaner than floodwater from outside. Dirty water means more cleaning and removal of porous materials.
Rooms Affected
