The storm tore a section of shingles off the roof, and wind-driven rain poured into the attic for hours. Now the insulation is soaked, the bedroom ceiling has a brown stain spreading across it, and more rain is in the forecast. Storm water damage comes from above, and the first job is keeping more of it from getting in.

After a big storm, every contractor's phone rings at once, and out-of-town crews start knocking on doors. A Water Damage is a free referral service that connects you with independent, licensed and insured contractors near Bemiss who handle emergency tarping, drying, and interior repairs.
The first priority is keeping more rain out. Contractors tarp damaged roofs and board up broken windows or doors before interior drying begins.
Local pros will still be here after the storm. That matters for follow-up work and questions later.
Each contractor carries independent licensing and insurance. After storms, always check credentials before signing.
Contractors photograph exterior and interior damage, record moisture readings, and itemize repairs so your storm claim has solid support.

Storm water enters from above and from the sides, so the work moves from the outside in: seal the building, then dry and repair the interior.

Damaged roof areas are covered with secured tarps to stop leaks until the roof can be repaired.
Broken windows, damaged doors, and openings from fallen limbs are boarded to keep out rain, wind, and intruders.
Soaked blown-in or batt insulation is removed, roof decking and rafters are dried, and the attic is checked for mold before new insulation goes in.
Water-damaged ceilings and walls are removed, dried, rebuilt, and painted.
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry ceilings, walls, and floors below the leak until moisture readings confirm the structure is dry.
Tell dispatch whether rain is still getting in and where the damage is.

Luis F.Storm insurance claim

It is risky. Pros tarp safely, and emergency tarping is often covered by insurance.
Wind-driven rain through storm damage is usually covered. Outside flooding generally requires flood insurance.
Ask for a local address, proof of license and insurance, and a written estimate. Be cautious with anyone demanding large upfront payments or pushing you to sign immediately.
Rarely. Blown-in cellulose clumps and loses its insulating value, and fiberglass can trap moisture against the decking. Most soaked insulation should be replaced.
Act within a day or two. Mold grows quickly, and the next rain adds more damage.
No. We connect you with independent local pros. Verify their license and insurance before work starts.
