Storm Water Damage Cleanup in 55416, Minnesota
Storms let water in through damaged roofs, broken windows and torn siding. Once inside, it soaks carpet, runs into walls and drips through ceilings.
Storm damage restoration is available in St. Louis Park and nearby Golden Valley, Edina and Medicine Lake. The pros handle board-up, tarping, water extraction and drying after storms of any size.
What Storm Damage Restoration Covers in 55416
Storm Damage Water Extraction
Rainwater that came in through a roof, window or door is removed from floors, carpet and the space under cabinets before it soaks into walls.
Emergency Board Up Services
Broken windows and doors are covered with plywood so rain and wind stop coming in and the home is secure while drying runs.
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
When siding is torn or cracked in a storm, rain gets into the wall. The inside is dried while the outside is covered until it can be repaired.
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.
Storm Flooded Basement Cleanup
Storm water that floods a basement is pumped out, wet carpet and drywall are removed and the slab and walls are cleaned and dried.
Signs of Storm Water Damage in Your 55416 Home
Dented Vents and Skylights
Hail dents on roof vents, skylight frames or flashing can leave gaps where water gets in during the next storm.
Dripping From Light Fixtures
Water coming through a light or fan means it has pooled above the ceiling. Turn off that circuit and keep people clear.
Musty Smell After Heavy Rain
A damp smell that was not there before the storm usually means wet insulation, carpet pad or wall cavities.
Wet Attic Insulation
Damp or matted insulation in the attic after a storm means rain is getting past the roof deck.
How Storm Damage Restoration Works in 55416
Step 1: Damage Walkthrough
The pros check every room, the attic and the outside of the house to see where water got in and how far it spread.
Step 2: Cover the Openings
Tarps and plywood go over damaged roof sections, windows and doors before extraction starts.
Step 3: Remove Soaked Materials
Carpet pad, insulation and drywall that are too wet to dry in place are cut out and bagged.
Step 4: Document for the Claim
Photos, moisture readings and a list of removed materials are put together for you to share with your insurer.
Typical Storm Damage in 55416, Minnesota
Power Outages
Storms that knock out power stop pumps and dehumidifiers, so water that gets in stays longer than it otherwise would.
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.
Fallen Trees and Limbs
Branches and trees that fall on a house can open the roof or break windows, letting rain straight in.

Your Storm Damage Restoration Questions Answered
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 I need to leave my home during storm cleanup?
Usually not, unless the damage makes the home unsafe or power is out. Wet areas are closed off while equipment runs.
What does storm damage restoration cost?
It depends on how many rooms got wet, whether board-up and tarping are needed and how long drying takes. The pros price the job after seeing the damage.
How long does it take to dry a home after storm damage?
Most homes dry in three to five days, depending on how many rooms got wet and how much insulation and drywall came out. Readings decide when it is done.
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.
