Storm Water Removal and Drying in 77345
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
Storm water inside exterior walls often shows up as bubbling paint or a damp baseboard. Drying the cavity keeps the framing from rotting.
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.
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.
Debris Removal After Storm
Storm debris inside a home is bagged and removed first. Floors and walls under it are then cleaned and checked for moisture.
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.
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.
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.
Dented Vents and Skylights
Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.
Wet Attic Insulation
Damp or matted insulation in the attic after a storm means rain is getting past the roof deck.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 77345
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 77345 Homes
Roof Damage From Wind
High winds lift and tear shingles and flashing, exposing the roof deck to rain that soaks into the attic.
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.
Flying Debris
Outdoor furniture, signs and branches carried by wind can break glass and doors and let rain into the home.

How long does it take to dry a home after storm damage?
