Our Storm Restoration Services
Severe rain or heavy snow can leave your home at risk for leaks or flooding. The water may persist in your home and cause mold growth. Flooded or saturated soil may also cause your drains to back up, preventing the use of your faucets and toilet.
We act quickly to eliminate all excess water in your home. We use our exclusive technology to dry and dehumidify your home, and then repair and clean up the effects of the damage. Our restoration services are designed to repair and restore your home whenever possible, rather than replacing the structures, for a more cost-effective solution.
What to Do When a Storm Occurs
Should a storm cause flooding and unsafe conditions in your home, leave immediately. We recommend that, if possible, you remove all the fabric and upholstery items while waiting for our storm cleanup and restoration professionals to arrive.

- A quicker remodeling process
- Protecting items from potential damage
- Protecting contents from further on-site damage
When restoration is completed, we will work with you to coordinate the move-in according to your needs. The services offered upon move-in may depend on your insurance coverage.
Electronic Cleanup
Water-damaged electronics can present a serious hazard. Do not attempt to turn on or operate any electrical device that you suspect has been damaged by water. We will coordinate the restoration of your electronics, including:

The key to restoring electronics is taking prompt action to prevent further damage. We start by cleaning the exterior of electronic devices to help stop further corrosion and damage. Electronics will be cleaned and inspected by a qualified electronics technician.
