Storm Damage Restoration Services in 30071
Emergency Roof Tarping
Tarping keeps the attic and ceilings from getting wet again during the storms that often follow the first one.
Emergency Board Up Services
Plywood is fastened over broken glass and damaged doors right after the storm. It stays until the window or door can be replaced.
Wind-Driven Rain Drying
Wind-driven rain soaks the windward side of a house first. Drying focuses on those walls, the window sills and the carpet along them.
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
Water that gets behind siding or stucco can soak insulation and the back of the drywall. The pros find it with meters and dry the cavity.
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.
When Storm Damage Needs Professional Cleanup
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.
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.
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.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 30071
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 30071 Homes
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.
Fallen Trees and Limbs
Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.
Wind-Driven Rain
Strong winds push rain sideways into window frames, vents and siding joints that keep out normal rain.
Storm Runoff Into Basements
Heavy rain can raise the water around a house and push it through window wells, cracks and floor drains.
Storm Damage Restoration for Homes and Businesses in 30071
Residential Storm Damage Restoration
In condos and townhomes, storm water can come through a neighbor's unit or a shared roof. The pros dry each affected unit and record what they find in each.
Commercial Storm Damage Restoration
Stores and offices with broken glass get boarded up for security, and wet stock and furniture are moved before extraction and drying begin.
When Storm Damage Is Too Big for DIY
Take photos and video of damage inside and outside, including broken windows and the roof, before anything is moved. Your insurer will ask for them.
Storm Damage Restoration Cost in 30071, GA
In Norcross, the biggest cost drivers after a storm are the number of wet rooms, soaked insulation and drywall, and after-hours work during the storm.
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.
Rooms Affected
Each wet room needs extraction, drying equipment and moisture checks, so the number of rooms sets much of the cost.
Basement Flooding
Pumping out a flooded basement and removing wet finishes adds equipment and labor to the job.
Does Insurance Cover Storm Damage Restoration?

Storm Damage Restoration FAQs
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 (678) 672-1781 for board-up, tarping and drying.
How do the pros find water inside walls after a storm?
They use moisture meters and thermal cameras along exterior walls, under windows and in the attic to find water that is not visible.
Do the pros repair roofs and windows?
They cover them with tarps and plywood so the inside can dry. Permanent roof, window and siding repairs are done by those trades.
How long does it take to dry a home after storm damage?
Drying often takes several days, depending on how many rooms got wet and how much insulation and drywall came out. Moisture readings decide when it is done.
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.
