Storm damage repair near you
Severe wind, hail, a fallen tree or a tornado leaves a damaged roof and structure — and the wind-driven rain that follows the breach, all at once. DisasterStatus connects you with vetted, independent local storm damage repair pros who tarp the roof, dry out the water, and rebuild the structure back to pre-storm condition.
What a storm damage repair pro does
- Emergency roof tarp & board-up — secures a breached roof, broken windows and damaged walls against the next rain (and what many insurers expect right away).
- Water extraction & structural drying — removes the wind-driven rain before it drives mold within 24–48 hours.
- Debris & tree removal — clears fallen limbs and storm debris so the structure can be assessed and repaired.
- Roof, window & siding repair — rebuilds the damaged building envelope back to pre-storm condition.
- Structural repair & rebuild — addresses framing, ceilings and walls damaged by wind, water or impact.
- Insurance documentation — ties the damage to the storm date and documents the loss for your adjuster.

- What homeowners insurance covers — how wind and hail claims work.
- How to choose a restoration company — what to check before anyone starts work.
Frequently asked questions
- Once the warning has passed and it is safe, stay clear of downed power lines, check the structure before re-entering, and photograph the damage before you touch anything. Then get an emergency roof tarp or board-up in place to keep the next rain out, and call your insurer and a storm-damage restoration pro.
- No. DisasterStatus is a free referral service. We connect you with vetted, independent local storm-damage restoration professionals — the tarping, water cleanup and structural repair are all handled directly by that local pro, not by DisasterStatus.
- Wind and hail are standard covered perils on most homeowners policies, including the water that gets in once the storm breaches the roof or windows. The key is documenting that the damage ties to the storm — the local pro records the loss thoroughly and can work directly with your adjuster.
- Because the moment wind or a fallen tree opens the roof or breaks a window, wind-driven rain pours into the attic, walls and ceilings. That water soaks insulation, drywall and framing and starts a 24–48 hour mold clock — so a storm loss is usually a structural job and a water job at once.
