Roof leak or storm damage? Stop the spread, then call.

Hurricane season runs June through November, and summer storms bring wind-driven rain most weeks. When water gets in through the roof, windows or sliders, fast drying keeps it from turning into mold. One free call connects you with a local restoration company.

Our phone line opens soon.

If you have water in your home right now, shut off the water, take photos, and call your insurance company. Many insurers can send a restoration company out quickly.

We're a referral service, not the company doing the work.

First steps

Safety firstStay away from downed lines, flood water and damaged structure.
Catch the dripBuckets under leaks, belongings out of the way.
Sagging ceiling?Keep everyone out from under it.
Photograph everythingInside and outside, before cleanup.
Call your insurerMost policies expect you to take reasonable steps to prevent more damage.

How storm water gets in

Roof: Missing shingles or tiles, lifted flashing, and damaged roof vents.
Windows and sliders: Wind-driven rain pushes past seals and up through door tracks.
Soffits and vents: Rain blown sideways into the attic soaks insulation and ceilings.
Rising water: Storm surge or flooding from outside is flood damage, which usually needs a separate flood policy.

Tarping and drying

A roofer or restoration company can tarp the roof to stop more water while the claim is handled. Inside, wet insulation, drywall and flooring need drying or removal.

After a big storm, be careful with anyone who knocks on your door asking for upfront payment or for you to sign over your insurance benefits. You can check any Florida contractor's license at myfloridalicense.com.

How this works

You call and tell us your ZIP code and what happened. We connect your call to an independent, licensed restoration company that works in your area. They come out, look at the damage, and give you a quote.

We don't do the work and we don't charge you. The company you're connected with may pay us for the referral. Any price or agreement is between you and them.

Questions people ask

Is storm damage covered by insurance?

Wind and rain damage is often covered under a homeowners policy, usually with a separate hurricane deductible for named storms. Flooding from rising water generally needs a flood policy.

Should I wait for the adjuster before drying?

Generally no. Document the damage with photos first, then start drying to prevent more damage, and keep every receipt. Ask your insurer if you're unsure.
