Help With Storm Damage in 30113
Storm Damage Restoration covers the inside of a home or business after a storm: removing water and debris, drying the structure and securing openings.
Storm damage restoration is available in Buchanan and nearby Bremen, Temple and Cedartown. The pros handle board-up, tarping, water extraction and drying after storms of any size.
What Storm Damage Restoration Covers in 30113
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.
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.
Debris Removal After Storm
Mud, broken glass, wet insulation and branches that came into the house are cleared so extraction and drying can reach the floors and walls.
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.
Emergency Roof Tarping
Torn or missing roof sections are covered with a heavy tarp so no more rain reaches the attic while the inside is dried.
Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
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.
Bubbling Paint on Exterior Walls
Paint that bubbles on the inside of an exterior wall after a storm points to water that got behind the siding.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 30113
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.
Where Storm Water Gets Into a House
Fallen Trees and Limbs
Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.
Hail Impact
Hail cracks shingles, skylights and vent caps, opening small gaps that leak during the storms that follow.
Overflowing Gutters
Heavy rain can overflow clogged or undersized gutters, sending water down walls and toward the foundation.
Storm Damage Restoration for Homes and Businesses in 30113
Residential Storm Damage Restoration
In homes with finished basements, storm water can soak carpet, drywall and storage. The pros pump out the water, remove soaked finishes and dry the walls and slab.
Commercial Storm Damage Restoration
Commercial buildings with basement storage or mechanical rooms get pump-out, removal of wet materials and drying of the floor and walls.
When Storm Damage Is Too Big for DIY
A wet-dry vacuum can pick up small amounts of water from hard floors. Soaked carpet, walls and ceilings need extraction and drying equipment to dry fully.
Storm Damage Restoration Cost in 30113, GA
Storm water from outside can carry dirt, which means more cleaning and sometimes more material removal than a clean water leak.
Water Source
Rain coming through a roof is cleaner than floodwater from outside. Dirty water means more cleaning and removal of porous materials.
Drying Time
Each extra day of air movers, dehumidifiers and moisture checks adds to the cost, especially in wet attics and wall cavities.
Debris Inside
Mud, glass, branches and wet insulation inside the house take time to clear and dispose of.
Does Insurance Cover Storm Damage Restoration?
Some policies have a separate wind or hail deductible. Read yours or ask your agent so you know what to expect before work begins.

Your Storm Damage Restoration Questions Answered
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 (470) 722-8241 for board-up, tarping and drying.
Is storm water dirty?
Rain coming through a roof is usually clean at first. Water that came in from outside across the ground is treated as dirty and needs cleaning as well as drying.
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 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.
What is emergency board-up?
Plywood is fastened over broken windows and doors so rain and wind stay out and the home is secure while it dries.
