Storm Damage Restoration Services in 84097
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.
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.
Debris Removal After Storm
Wet debris left in a room keeps the space damp. Clearing it is the first step before the pros extract water and set up drying.
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.
Emergency Board Up Services
Plywood is fastened over broken glass and damaged doors right after the storm. It stays until the window or door can be replaced.
When Storm Damage Needs Professional Cleanup
Mud or Debris Indoors
Mud, leaves or glass inside the house mean storm water came in from outside and floors need cleaning as well as drying.
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.
Ceiling Stains After a Storm
New brown rings or damp spots on the ceiling after high wind or hail mean water is getting through the roof.
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 84097
Step 1: Emergency Roof Tarping
Openings in the roof from wind or hail are tarped so the attic and ceilings stop taking on water.
Step 2: Hail Damage Leak Cleanup
Water in the attic is removed, wet insulation is pulled and ceilings below are checked for trapped water.
Step 3: Clean Surfaces
Floors and lower walls touched by outside water are cleaned and treated before drying to limit odor and contamination.
Step 4: Structural Drying
Dehumidifiers and air movers dry the attic, walls and floors, with readings taken each day until the targets are met.
Common Causes of Storm Damage in 84097
Fallen Trees and Limbs
Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.
Wind-Driven Rain
Strong winds push rain sideways into window frames, vents and siding joints that keep out normal rain.
Roof Damage From Wind
High winds lift and tear shingles and flashing, exposing the roof deck to rain that soaks into the attic.
Storm Runoff Into Basements
Heavy rain can raise the water around a house and push it through window wells, cracks and floor drains.
Storm Cleanup for 84097 Homes and Commercial Buildings
Residential Storm Damage Restoration
For homeowners, the first job after a storm is stopping more water from getting in. Board-up and tarping come first, then extraction and drying.
Commercial Storm Damage Restoration
Property managers get moisture readings and photos for each affected unit or suite, which helps when several tenants and insurers are involved.
What You Can Do Safely After a Storm in 84097
Do not climb onto a wet or damaged roof. Tarping should be done by someone with the right gear and anchors once the storm has passed.
What Storm Damage Restoration Costs in 84097
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.
Basement Flooding
Pumping out a flooded basement and removing wet finishes adds equipment and labor to the job.
Timing of the Work
Work during or right after a storm, at night or on a weekend, can carry a higher rate than scheduled work.
Does Insurance Cover Storm Damage Restoration?
Report storm damage to your insurer soon. Photos of the damage, the moisture readings and receipts for emergency work help the adjuster review the claim.

Questions About Storm Damage Restoration
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.
Can hail damage cause leaks later?
Yes. Hail can crack shingles, skylights and vent caps, and those cracks may not leak until the next heavy 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.
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 (801) 514-7356 for board-up, tarping and drying.
Does insurance cover storm damage?
Many policies cover damage from wind and hail. Flooding from rising water outside usually needs a separate flood policy. Your insurer decides coverage.
