Storm Water Damage Cleanup in Monroe, Georgia
Wind, hail and heavy rain each damage a home differently. Wind drives rain through gaps, hail cracks roofs and skylights, and heavy rain overwhelms gutters.
Storm damage restoration is available in Monroe and nearby Loganville, Russell and Winder. The pros handle board-up, tarping, water extraction and drying after storms of any size.
What Storm Damage Restoration Covers in Monroe
Storm Damage Water Extraction
After a storm, water is extracted room by room with pumps and extractors, starting with the areas where it is deepest.
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
Strong wind pushes rain sideways through window frames, vents and siding joints. The pros dry the wall cavities and floors that this water reached.
Storm Flooded Basement Cleanup
When heavy rain overwhelms a sump or comes through window wells, the pros extract the water and dry the basement framing and finishes.
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.
When Storm Damage Needs Professional Cleanup
Dented Vents and Skylights
Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.
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.
Dripping From Light Fixtures
Water coming through a light or fan means it has pooled above the ceiling. Turn off that circuit and keep people clear.
Water in the Basement
Water on the basement floor or seeping through walls after heavy rain means storm runoff found its way inside.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in Monroe
Step 1: Secure the Building
Broken windows and doors are boarded up and roof damage is tarped so no more rain gets in.
Step 2: Remove Debris
Mud, glass, branches and wet insulation that came inside are cleared so the floors and walls can be reached.
Step 3: Storm Damage Water Extraction
Water is removed from floors, carpet and under cabinets with pumps and extractors, starting where it is deepest.
Step 4: Dry and Monitor
Air movers and dehumidifiers run while the pros take daily readings, until walls and floors match dry areas.
Common Causes of Storm Damage in Monroe
Storm Runoff Into Basements
Heavy rain can raise the water around a house and push it through window wells, cracks and floor drains.
Flash Flooding
Sudden heavy rain can send water across yards and under doors faster than drains and gutters can carry it away.
Wind-Driven Rain
Strong winds push rain sideways into window frames, vents and siding joints that keep out normal rain.
Flying Debris
Outdoor furniture, signs and branches carried by wind can break glass and doors and let rain into the home.

Commercial buildings with basement storage or mechanical rooms get pump-out, removal of wet materials and drying of the floor and walls.

Plywood is fastened over broken windows and doors so rain and wind stay out and the home is secure while it dries.
