What Our Storm Damage Restoration Includes

Every storm job is different, but the core scope is the same: secure the property, remove the water, dry the structure, and rebuild what the storm destroyed. Here is what is covered on a standard Utah storm claim and what gets added only if the damage calls for it.

Emergency Tarping and Board-Up

We cover roof damage with heavy polyethylene sheeting and board broken windows the same day. That stops water from getting deeper into the structure while the claim is being processed.

Water Extraction

Standing water comes out with truck-mount and portable extraction units. We pull water from carpet, pad, hardwood, and subflooring before it spreads into adjacent rooms.

Structural Drying

Air movers, desiccant dehumidifiers, and daily hygrometer readings bring framing, drywall, and subflooring back to dry standard. Most homes dry in three to five days.

Debris Removal and Sanitizing

We haul out storm debris, saturated drywall, and ruined insulation, then apply antimicrobial spray to affected framing to stop mold growth before it starts.

Insurance Documentation

Photos, moisture readings, and Xactimate line items go into a claim packet we send to your adjuster. You get a copy of everything we submit.

Repairs and Rebuild

Shingles, drywall, paint, trim, and flooring get replaced by our own crews. You get one warranty and one final walkthrough when the job is done.

What Storm Damage Restoration in Utah Really Involves

Storm damage restoration in Utah is the licensed trade of securing a storm-damaged structure, removing water and debris, drying the building envelope, and rebuilding what the weather destroyed. It is not just roof patching. A single hailstorm can crack shingles, punch through a skylight, and send water down through drywall, insulation, and wood subflooring within an hour. We document every wet material with a moisture meter and thermal imaging camera before anything gets torn out.

Utah storms hit differently depending on where you live. Wasatch Front hail, Cache Valley wind, and southern Utah flash flooding all create different damage patterns. If you search storm damage restoration near me Utah after a June hailstorm in Orem or a January ice event in Garland, you need a crew that knows how Utah buildings fail. We have dried everything from 1920s brick bungalows in Murray to new slab-on-grade builds in Levan.

Our Storm Damage Restoration Process

Every storm job follows the same five steps, whether it is a single roof leak in Payson or a flooded basement in Midvale. Here is exactly what happens from the first call to the final walkthrough.

Schedule

Call or book online — a real human picks up and confirms a 2-hour arrival window.

Diagnose

Licensed tech inspects on-site, then walks you through the cause and your options.

Fix

The job is completed to code and done right the first time — no shortcuts, no surprises.

Guarantee

Every job backed by a written workmanship warranty — and we stand behind it.

Tools and Methods We Use

Tools & Equipment

Thermal Imaging Camera

Finds hidden moisture behind drywall and under flooring without tearing the house apart. We use it on every storm assessment to map the actual wet zone.

Moisture Meter and Hygrometer

Reads moisture content in framing, drywall, and subflooring. Daily readings tell us when materials hit dry standard so we do not pull equipment too early.

Dri-Eaz Air Movers and Dehumidifiers

Move air across wet surfaces and pull moisture out of the air. We size the equipment count to the cubic footage of the affected area, not a flat guess.

Desiccant Dehumidifiers

Pull moisture out of crawl spaces and tight cavities where refrigerant units cannot keep up. Essential after storm water gets into a low, humid space.

Borescope

Lets us look inside wall cavities and behind siding without cutting a big hole. We confirm where water actually traveled before we open anything up.

Water Extraction Unit

Truck-mount and portable units pull hundreds of gallons of standing water out of carpet, pad, and hard flooring in a single visit.

Methods & Standards

IICRC S500 Drying Standard

We follow the IICRC S500 standard for water-damaged structures, which sets the drying goals, equipment ratios, and documentation requirements for every job. That is why our readings hold up when an adjuster reviews the claim.

Xactimate Estimating

Estimates are written in Xactimate, the same platform most Utah adjusters use. Line items match industry pricing, which cuts back-and-forth and speeds up claim approval.

Antimicrobial Treatment

After extraction and before rebuild, we apply antimicrobial spray to affected framing and cavities. It stops mold growth from starting while the structure finishes drying.

Polyethylene Encapsulation

For crawl spaces, we lay polyethylene sheeting over the soil after drying. It blocks ground moisture from re-entering the space and keeps the framing dry long term.

When to Call for Storm Damage Restoration

A June hailstorm cracks shingles across your roof and water starts dripping into the attic.

What we do: We tarp the roof, trace the leak with a moisture meter, and dry the attic framing. Then we replace the damaged shingles and decking and match the rest of the roof.

→ You get a dry attic, a repaired roof, and a claim packet your adjuster can approve without a second visit.

A windstorm blows out a window during a rainstorm and water pours into your basement.

What we do: We board the window, extract standing water, and run air movers and dehumidifiers until the framing and subflooring are dry. Then we rebuild the window and wall.

→ Basement is dry in four days, the wall is rebuilt, and no mold growth shows up weeks later.

Spring runoff and heavy rain push water into your crawl space and you smell something musty.

What we do: We pump the crawl space, run a desiccant dehumidifier, and test for mold growth. If readings are clean, we install polyethylene sheeting to keep it that way.

→ Crawl space is dry, the musty smell is gone, and the flooring above stops warping.

A storm knocks a tree limb onto your roof and you can see daylight through the sheathing.

What we do: We tarp the opening, remove the limb, and inspect the structural framing with a borescope. Then we replace sheathing, shingles, and any damaged rafters.

→ Roof is watertight again, the structure is sound, and the repair is documented for your claim.

How Storm Damage Restoration Runs in Utah

Utah storm damage is a seasonal business with a sharp edge. Hail season runs May through August along the Wasatch Front, wind events hit Cache Valley and the northern valleys in spring, and winter storms drive ice dams and burst pipe calls from Logan down to Cedar City. Building stock matters too: older brick homes in Murray and Midvale have plaster walls that dry slower than modern drywall, while newer slab-on-grade builds in Levan and Eagle Mountain hide water under the slab. We check Utah contractor license requirements and pull permits for structural repairs, and we follow EPA Lead-Safe practices on pre-1978 housing. If you are searching emergency storm damage restoration Utah at 3 a.m. after a wind event, we are already staging equipment along the I-15 corridor.

Neighborhoods We Serve

Wasatch Front

Hail and wind hit hardest along the I-15 corridor from Provo to Ogden. We stage crews and equipment here so response times stay under 90 minutes.
Cache Valley

Logan, Mendon, and Clarkston see spring wind events and heavy snow loads. Older farmhouses here often need roof and attic drying together.
Utah County

Orem, Lindon, and Payson get summer hail that cracks shingles and drives water into attics. We run daily routes through this corridor during hail season.
Rural Utah

Places like Ibapah, Cornish, and Deweyville are far from the nearest contractor. We cover them with the same crews and equipment, just a longer drive.

Local Conditions We Plan For

Hail season from May through August

Shingle damage and roof leaks spike during these months. We keep extra tarps and roof patch materials loaded so we can stabilize the same day.
Winter freeze-thaw cycles

Ice dams and burst pipes drive storm calls from November through March. We isolate the water source first, then dry and rebuild.
Spring runoff and flash flooding

Crawl spaces and basements flood fast in low-lying areas. We pump, dry, and check foundation seepage before the next storm.
High wind events in the northern valleys

Wind tears off shingles and pushes water sideways into walls. We trace the intrusion path with a thermal imaging camera before rebuilding.

Hail-Damaged Roof in Orem

Before

A June hailstorm cracked shingles across a 2,200 sq ft roof and drove water into the attic. Insulation was saturated and ceiling drywall in two rooms showed water stains. The homeowner had a claim open but no contractor lined up.

After

We tarped the roof the same day, dried the attic framing for four days, and replaced 1,800 sq ft of shingles plus the saturated insulation. Ceiling drywall was patched and painted. Final moisture readings matched dry standard across the board.

Maintenance: We recommend an annual roof inspection each spring before hail season. Catching lifted shingles early prevents the next storm from driving water into the attic.

Before

A windstorm blew out a basement window during heavy rain. Two inches of water covered 600 sq ft of finished basement, soaking carpet, pad, and the bottom two feet of drywall. The homeowner called at 11 p.m.

After

We boarded the window, extracted the water, and removed saturated drywall and pad. Air movers and a dehumidifier ran for four days. New drywall, paint, and carpet were installed, and the window was rebuilt with impact-rated glass.

Maintenance: Keep basement window wells clear of debris and check the seals each fall. A $30 tube of sealant beats a $6,000 basement rebuild.

Before

Spring runoff pushed water into a 900 sq ft crawl space. Joists were reading high on the moisture meter, and the homeowner noticed a musty smell in the kitchen above. No visible standing water, but the soil was saturated.

After

We pumped the remaining water, ran a desiccant dehumidifier for five days, and installed polyethylene sheeting over the soil. Joist readings dropped to dry standard, and the musty smell cleared within a week.

Maintenance: Check the crawl space each spring after runoff. If the sheeting is torn or the soil feels damp, call us before mold growth starts.

Storm Problems We Solve for Utah Homeowners

Utah storms leave behind more than missing shingles. Water gets into places you cannot see, and the damage keeps spreading until someone stops it. Here are the problems we see most often after a Wasatch Front or rural Utah storm.

Problem

Roof leak after hail or high wind

Water runs down through the attic, soaks insulation, and stains ceilings within hours. Left alone, it rots decking and feeds mold growth in the attic cavity.

Our Fix

We tarp the roof the same day, trace the leak path with a moisture meter and borescope, and dry the attic framing before replacing shingles and decking.

Problem

Basement flooding from storm runoff

Standing water wicks up drywall and into wood subflooring. Within 24 to 48 hours, mold growth starts and the repair bill climbs fast.

Our Fix

We pump the basement, extract water from carpet and pad, and run dehumidifiers until the slab and framing hit dry standard. Then we check foundation seepage and seal what needs sealing.

Problem

Crawl space moisture after heavy rain

Crawl space moisture rots joists, warps flooring above, and pushes humid air into the living space. It is the most common hidden storm problem in older Utah homes.

Our Fix

We remove standing water, run desiccant dehumidifiers, and install polyethylene sheeting over the soil. That keeps the space dry and protects the framing above.

Problem

Sewage backup during storm overload

Storm water overwhelms municipal lines and pushes sewage back into basements. That is Category 3 water and needs full protective handling, not a shop vac.

Our Fix

Our crew handles the cleanup with PPE, removes contaminated materials, applies antimicrobial spray, and disposes of everything to code.

Why Utah Homeowners Call Us After a Storm

Storm damage gets worse by the hour. Water spreads through wall cavities, mold growth starts in 24 to 48 hours, and insurance claims get harder to prove the longer you wait. Here is what you get when you call us first.

24/7 Emergency Response

We answer the phone at 2 a.m. after a wind event knocks a tree onto your roof. Crews roll with tarps, water extraction units, and air movers already loaded. Most Wasatch Front addresses see a technician within 60 to 90 minutes of the call.
Direct Insurance Billing

We write estimates in Xactimate, the same software your adjuster uses, which cuts back-and-forth. We photograph every damaged shingle, wet wall, and saturated subfloor, then submit the claim packet for you. Most Utah storm claims get approved without a second inspection.
IICRC-Certified Drying

Our technicians hold IICRC WRT and ASD certifications, so drying follows the S500 standard instead of guesswork. We log daily hygrometer readings and adjust equipment until materials hit dry standard, not just dry to the touch.
Full Rebuild Under One Roof

We do not hand you off to a separate contractor after the drying is done. Our crews replace drywall, insulation, shingles, and tile, then match grout and paint. One warranty, one point of contact, one final walkthrough.

Storm Damage Restoration Cost in Utah

Typical 2026 pricing for storm damage restoration in Utah runs $1,800 to $12,000, with most residential claims landing near $4,500. Small roof leaks and minor water intrusion often come in under $3,000. Full roof replacements with interior rebuilds push past $15,000. Insurance usually covers the bulk of the work, so your out-of-pocket cost is typically your deductible plus any upgrades you choose. We write every estimate in Xactimate so you can see exactly what is being charged and why.

Typical Investment Range

$1,800 - $12,000 depending on scope

You are paying for a crew that stops the damage, dries the structure to standard, and rebuilds it under one warranty. That is cheaper than paying twice, once for a bad dry-out and again for the mold that follows.

What changes the price

Scope of Water Damage

One room versus the whole house changes the price fast. A single bedroom with wet carpet runs a few hundred dollars to dry. Water that reached the subfloor and wall cavities across multiple rooms pushes into the thousands.

Roof and Structural Repairs

Tarping is cheap. Replacing shingles, sheathing, and rafters is not. The more structural material the storm destroyed, the higher the rebuild cost, and the more the claim needs to document.

Mold Growth Present

If mold growth started before you called, remediation gets added to the scope. That means containment, removal of affected materials, and antimicrobial treatment, which adds time and cost.

Material and Finish Choices

Standard drywall and builder-grade carpet cost less to replace than hardwood, tile, or custom trim. We match what was there, but upgrades you request get priced separately.

Access and Equipment Needs

Crawl spaces, tight attics, and rural addresses take more labor and sometimes more equipment. A crawl space job in Ibapah costs more to run than a basement job in Sandy.

Called at 6 a.m. after a windstorm took shingles off our roof. Crew was here by 7:30, tarped everything, and started drying the attic. They handled the insurance paperwork and we barely had to do anything. Highly recommend.

Yelp ★★★★★4.8

Our basement flooded during a storm and they extracted the water the same night. Daily moisture readings, clear communication, and the rebuild looked better than the original. Fair price and no surprises.

BBB ★★★★★4.9

Professional from the first call. They documented everything for our claim and worked directly with the adjuster. Drying took four days and the final walkthrough was thorough. Would use again.

Every city below gets the same crews, the same equipment, and the same direct insurance billing. If you do not see your town listed, call us anyway. We cover the whole state.

Orem

Orem sits in the middle of Utah County hail alley. We run summer routes here weekly, tarping roofs and drying attics after June and July hailstorms.

Murray

Murray's older brick homes have plaster walls that dry slower than modern drywall. We adjust drying times and equipment counts to match that building stock.

Midvale

Midvale basements flood fast when storm runoff hits the older drainage systems. We pump, extract, and dry the same day, then check foundation seepage.

Payson

Payson gets wind and hail that crack shingles and drive water into attics. We stage crews nearby during storm season so response stays under 90 minutes.

Lindon

Lindon's newer builds hide water under slab-on-grade floors. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to find it before it reaches the framing.

Midway

Midway sees heavy snow loads and spring runoff that push water into crawl spaces. We pump, dry, and install polyethylene sheeting to keep it dry.

Garland

Garland's farmhouses take wind and winter storm damage that often hits the roof and attic together. We handle both in one job and document it for the claim.

Mendon

Mendon sits in Cache Valley's wind corridor. Spring wind events tear off shingles and push water sideways into walls. We trace the path before rebuilding.

Levan

Levan is rural enough that most contractors skip it. We cover it with the same crews and equipment, just a longer drive, and we bill insurance directly.

Clarkston

Clarkston gets heavy snow and spring wind. We tarp roofs, dry attics, and rebuild in the same visit cycle so rural homeowners are not waiting weeks.

Deweyville

Deweyville's older homes need careful drying to avoid damaging original materials. We use borescopes and moisture meters to dry without unnecessary tear-out.

Cornish

Cornish is a small Cache Valley town where storm damage often goes unnoticed until mold growth starts. We inspect, dry, and document the whole job.

Ibapah

Ibapah is one of the most remote addresses we cover. Storm damage here means a long drive for any contractor. We make it and bring the full equipment load.

How much does storm damage restoration cost in Utah?

Most Utah storm damage restoration jobs run $1,800 to $12,000, with the average residential claim landing near $4,500 in 2026. Small roof leaks and minor water intrusion often fall under $3,000, while full roof replacements with interior rebuilds push past $15,000. Insurance usually covers the bulk of it, and you typically pay your deductible plus any upgrades you choose.

Does insurance cover storm damage restoration in Utah?

Yes, most Utah homeowner policies cover sudden storm damage, including hail, wind, and the water that gets in behind it. Standard policies exclude gradual wear and flood-zone water, which needs separate coverage. We document the loss in Xactimate, submit the claim packet, and work directly with your adjuster so you are not stuck translating between two contractors.

How long does storm damage restoration take in Utah?

Emergency stabilization happens the same day, usually within two to four hours of arrival. Structural drying takes three to five days for most Utah homes. Rebuild work depends on scope: a roof patch is one day, while a full roof replacement plus interior drywall and paint runs two to four weeks. We give you a written timeline before repairs start.

What should I do after storm damage in Utah?

Call (855) 343-0501 first, then photograph everything before you move it. If water is actively coming in, shut off the breaker to affected rooms and put towels down, but do not climb a wet roof. We handle tarping, extraction, and documentation. Filing the claim before you clean up keeps your evidence intact and speeds up approval.
