Tree on the house

A tree came through the roof. What now?

These photos are from Pensacola homes we worked on after Hurricane Isaias. A tree service removes the tree; we handle the rest, inside and out.

  • We cover the opening with a heavy-duty tarp so the next rain stays out.

Ceiling damage

A stain, a sag or a hole in the ceiling after the storm

Most of the homes we inspected after Isaias had water in the ceilings, often with only a small stain to show for it. Wet drywall and insulation get heavy and can come down. We find the water with moisture meters and thermal imaging and dry it.

Call us if you see

  • A new stain on a ceiling or wall
  • A ceiling that sags, bulges or drips
  • A crack across the ceiling after a tree hit the roof
  • Wet or matted insulation in the attic
  • Part of the ceiling down in a room

What we check

  • Every ceiling under the damaged roof, room by room
  • The attic insulation and the underside of the roof deck
  • Walls below the leak, with moisture readings
  • Floors and belongings where water dripped
Cleanup and dry-out

Storm damage cleanup and drying

One team does the work from the roof down, so nothing falls between contractors.

  • Broken ceiling, drywall and lumber removed and bagged
  • Wet insulation removed from the attic and the rooms
  • Floors and surfaces cleaned of insulation and debris
  • Water extracted and the structure dried with professional equipment
  • Drying checked with moisture readings until the materials are dry
  • Photos and readings for every room, in a certified damage report
Your belongings

Contents pack-out, and help if you need to move out

When the ceiling comes down, insulation and debris cover everything in the room. We carry the belongings out, wipe each item clean by hand, pack it in labeled boxes, and move it to a dry part of the house. Every item is photographed and listed, so you know what went where. If your family has to move out while the house dries, we pack and record your belongings so you can leave with a clear list.

FAQ

Storm Cleanup Questions

Questions Pensacola homeowners ask when the storm damage is inside the house.

Have a question about your home?

Talk to our team. We serve Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa Counties.

(786) 746-7599
Can my furniture and belongings be saved after the ceiling comes down?

Many can. We carry them out of the damaged room, wipe them clean by hand and pack them in labeled boxes. Items that cannot be cleaned are photographed and listed, so you have a record of them.

Do we have to move out while the house dries?

Not always. It depends on how much of the home is affected and whether the rooms you need are safe and dry. If you do move out, we pack your belongings and record each item, so you know what went where.

What happens to the wet insulation and drywall?

Materials that cannot be dried are removed and bagged, the room is cleaned, and the structure is dried until moisture readings confirm it. Every step is photographed for your records.
