Storm damage rarely stops at one problem. High wind lifts shingles, snaps branches and drops trees onto roofs, and once the building is open, rain gets into insulation, drywall and framing. Lost power can also shut down a sump pump right when the ground is soaked.
The first job after a storm is to stop more water from getting in. Temporary covers go over holes in the roof and walls so the next band of rain stays outside. After that, wet ceilings, walls and floors are dealt with, so hidden moisture does not turn into mold later.
A call to (425) 552-7960 goes directly to an independent restoration provider serving Lake Stickney and nearby towns. Be ready to tell the provider what was hit and whether the building is still open to the weather, and the visit, the estimate and the work are handled with you directly.
Storm Damage Restoration is often paired with roof leak water damage and flood restoration, depending on how far the water traveled.

Call nowHere is the typical path from storm damage to a dry building.
The crew looks for downed power lines, unstable trees, sagging ceilings and structural damage before work begins. Anything dangerous is flagged so it can be handled by the right trade or utility.
Openings in the roof, walls and windows are covered, so the damage does not keep growing with every shower.
Standing water is extracted, and soaked insulation, drywall and ceiling panels are removed where needed, opening the cavities so they can dry.
Drying equipment is placed through the affected rooms, and the crew tracks readings until materials test dry.
Debris is hauled off and damaged areas are cleaned, and the provider can explain what repairs come next.
Heavy tarps are fastened over damaged roof sections until a roofer can make the final repair.
Written records and readings are kept through the job, which can help with an insurance claim.
Inside the house, water is removed and the structure is dried so mold does not get a start.
Branches and wreckage are pulled off the house and hauled away, or referred to an arborist when the tree is large.
Broken windows, doors and wall openings are covered with plywood so the home is protected from rain and wind.
Storms in Washington tend to arrive in waves through fall and winter, with gusty wind storms, long soaking rains and cold snaps that load trees with ice. Homes with mature trees nearby and aging roofs see a lot of this damage. Property owners in Lake Stickney and nearby towns, including Mill Creek, Larch Way, Martha Lake and Picnic Point, can use the same number to reach storm cleanup providers, so the building gets closed up and dried quickly.
Weeks of steady rain, saturated soil and the occasional atmospheric river overwhelm gutters, sump pumps and drainage, while cold snaps can still split pipes in exterior walls, garages and crawl spaces. Older houses over crawl spaces are especially prone to hidden moisture, which tends to show up later as soft floors, odor or mold.
