What is Storm & Wind Damage Restoration?

Storm and wind damage restoration encompasses the comprehensive repair and reconstruction of properties damaged by hurricanes, tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, hail, and high winds. Storm damage often involves multiple perils: wind damage to roofs and siding, water intrusion from broken windows or roof breaches, debris impact, and structural damage from fallen trees or airborne objects.

The restoration process begins with emergency services: tarping damaged roofs to prevent further water intrusion, boarding up broken windows and doors, removing fallen trees and debris, and securing the property against additional weather exposure. Assessment follows, documenting all damage to the structure and contents, often using drones for roof inspections and thermal imaging to detect hidden water intrusion. Permanent repairs then proceed in phases: roof repair or replacement, structural framing repair, window and door replacement, siding repair, interior water damage restoration, and final finishes.

Storm damage claims can be complex because they often involve multiple types of damage covered under different parts of your insurance policy. Wind damage to the roof is covered under your homeowners policy, but flooding from storm surge or rising water requires separate flood insurance. Accurate documentation is critical. Professional restoration companies experienced in storm damage use tools like Xactimate to create detailed estimates that match insurance industry standards, reducing claim disputes and speeding payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after storm damage?+
After ensuring your family's safety: (1) Document all damage with photos and videos before any cleanup or repairs. (2) Contact your insurance company immediately to report the claim. (3) Call a restoration company for emergency services like tarping, board-up, and debris removal. Do not wait for the insurance adjuster to begin emergency mitigation; your policy requires you to prevent further damage. (4) Keep receipts for all emergency expenses. (5) Do not make permanent repairs until your insurance adjuster has inspected and approved the scope of work.
How long does storm damage restoration take?+
Emergency services (tarping, board-up) should happen within 24 to 48 hours. Insurance inspection and approval can take days to weeks depending on the severity of the storm and the volume of claims in your area. Roof repairs can take 1 to 3 weeks if materials are available. Complete restoration including structural repairs, water damage mitigation, and interior reconstruction can take 2 to 6 months for extensive damage. After major hurricanes, timelines extend significantly due to contractor availability and material shortages.
Will my insurance cover storm damage restoration?+
Standard homeowners insurance covers wind and hail damage to your structure, personal property, and includes Additional Living Expenses if your home is uninhabitable. You pay your deductible (often a percentage of your dwelling coverage for wind/hail in coastal areas, typically 1% to 5%). Wind-driven rain entering through storm-damaged openings is covered. However, flooding from storm surge, rising water, or surface water accumulation requires separate flood insurance. Review your policy's wind/hail deductible and coverage limits before storm season.
Should I tarp my roof myself or hire a professional?+
If you can safely access your roof and the damage is minor, temporary tarping can prevent additional water intrusion. However, climbing on a damaged roof is dangerous, and improper tarping can cause more harm than good. Professional emergency tarping by a licensed restoration company is typically covered by your insurance as part of emergency mitigation. They have the equipment, safety training, and experience to secure tarps properly, and they document the work for your claim.
How do I choose a storm damage contractor after a major event?+
After major storms, unlicensed and out-of-state contractors flood affected areas. Verify that any contractor is licensed, insured, and has a verifiable local business address. Check their IICRC certification and ask for local references. Be extremely cautious of door-to-door solicitation, contractors who demand large upfront payments, or anyone who pressures you to sign a contract immediately. Do not sign an Assignment of Benefits (AOB) without fully understanding the implications. Get multiple estimates and verify all contractors through your state licensing board and the Better Business Bureau.
What is the difference between repair and replacement for insurance claims?+
Insurance policies may pay on an Actual Cash Value (ACV) or Replacement Cost Value (RCV) basis. ACV pays the depreciated value of damaged items (what they were worth at the time of loss). RCV pays the cost to replace them with new, equivalent items. For major storm damage, this difference can be tens of thousands of dollars. Most policies pay ACV initially, then pay the recoverable depreciation after repairs are completed and documented. Understand your policy's valuation method before filing a claim.
