FAQ

What People Ask After a Storm

It is risky. Pros tarp safely, and emergency tarping is often covered by insurance.

Damage from wind and rain entering through a storm-damaged roof or window is often covered. Rising floodwater from outside usually is not. Check your policy with your agent.

Verify local presence, licensing, and insurance, and avoid anyone pressuring you or asking for large deposits.

Rarely. Blown-in cellulose clumps and loses its insulating value, and fiberglass can trap moisture against the decking. Most soaked insulation should be replaced.

Within 24 to 48 hours. Mold can start growing on wet insulation, drywall, and wood framing quickly, and another storm can make it worse.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service connecting you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who do the work.
