Every storm job is different, but the core scope covers emergency response, water removal, structural drying, debris handling, and reconstruction. Here is what is standard on a typical Ocean Springs storm damage claim, and what we handle as an add-on when the damage calls for it.
We secure broken windows with plywood and cover compromised roof sections with heavy-duty tarps. This stops rain from doing more damage while your claim is processed.
Truck-mounted extraction units pull standing water from floors, carpets, and crawl spaces. We remove saturated carpet padding and any materials that cannot be dried in place.
Dehumidifiers, air movers, and specialty floor drying mats run until moisture readings hit dry standard. We log daily hygrometer readings so the whole process is documented.
Storm debris, broken shingles, fallen limbs, and damaged drywall get hauled off. We cut drywall to the flood line and remove insulation that has been compromised by water.
Every wet surface gets treated with antimicrobial spray after extraction. This is standard practice on storm jobs because floodwater and roof leaks both introduce bacteria.
Drywall, insulation, vapor barrier, baseboards, flooring, paint, and roofing all get rebuilt by our crew. We pull permits when required and walk the finished job with you.
You call (228) 279-0515 and describe what happened. We ask about roof leaks, standing water, and whether power is out. A crew is dispatched with tarps, plywood, and extraction gear. Most Ocean Springs addresses see us on-site within 60 to 90 minutes during storm events.
We walk the property with a moisture meter, thermal imaging camera, and infrared thermometer. Every wet wall, ceiling, and floor gets mapped and photographed. This takes 45 to 90 minutes on a typical home and produces the report your insurance adjuster needs.
Roofs get tarped, broken windows get boarded with plywood, and standing water gets pulled with a water extraction unit. If a tree is through the roof, we coordinate safe removal. This phase stops the damage from getting worse while the claim moves forward.
Dehumidifiers and air movers run 24/7. We remove saturated carpet padding, baseboards, and any drywall that cannot be saved. We check progress daily with a hygrometer and adjust equipment until framing reads dry. Most jobs take three to five days.
Once the structure is dry, we rebuild - drywall, insulation, vapor barrier, flooring, paint, trim. We pull permits through the Mississippi State Board of Contractors when required and walk the finished job with you before we pack up.

Finds water hidden behind walls, under floors, and inside ceilings by detecting temperature differences. Essential after wind-driven rain events.
Measures moisture content in drywall, framing, and subfloor. We log readings daily to confirm the structure is drying at the expected rate.
Low-grain refrigerant and desiccant units that pull hundreds of pints of water per day out of the air inside a sealed structure.
High-velocity fans that create airflow across wet surfaces to accelerate evaporation. Positioned per IICRC S500 calculations.
Pulls standing water and deep moisture from carpet, pad, and hard flooring at rates no portable unit can match.
Placed in wall cavities and under flooring to track moisture over time. Gives us a documented drying curve for the insurance file.

A pine limb punched through the roof deck during a tropical storm. Rain poured into the attic and ceiling for six hours before the homeowner noticed. Two rooms had saturated drywall and insulation, and moisture had wicked into the wall framing.
After: We tarped the roof the same night, extracted water, removed saturated drywall and insulation, and ran structural drying for four days. Framing hit dry standard. We rebuilt the roof, ceiling, and interior walls. Total job: 18 days from call to final walkthrough.

Storm surge pushed four inches of water into a ground-floor living area and kitchen. Carpet, padding, and the bottom 12 inches of drywall were saturated with contaminated water. The homeowner had flood insurance but no idea how to document the claim.
After: We extracted standing water, removed contaminated materials, treated all surfaces with antimicrobial spray, and dried the structure in five days. We prepared the Xactimate scope and worked directly with the adjuster. Rebuild was completed in three weeks.

Driving rain pushed through aging window seals on the west side of a slab-on-grade ranch. Water soaked into the wall cavity behind the drywall. The homeowner noticed bubbling paint three weeks later and called us when a musty smell appeared.
After: Thermal imaging found moisture in three wall cavities. We drilled access holes, dried the framing, treated for mold with IICRC AMRT protocols, and repaired the drywall and paint. Moisture readings confirmed dry standard before we closed the walls.
Book this service →Storm damage rarely shows up as one clean problem. It shows up as a roof leak that becomes a ceiling stain that becomes hidden mold growth three weeks later. Here are the issues we see most often after Gulf Coast storms.
Ask a pro →We tarp the roof immediately, extract water from the ceiling cavity, and dry the framing with targeted air movers. If drywall is saturated, we cut it out, dry the structure, and rebuild once moisture readings hit dry standard.
We treat surge flooding as Category 3 water. Full PPE, containment, extraction, removal of contaminated materials, antimicrobial spray, and structural drying. We document everything for your flood insurance claim.
We use FLIR thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to find water hidden behind walls. Once located, we drill small access holes, inject drying air, and monitor until the cavity reads dry.

One room with a wet ceiling is a very different job than four rooms with saturated flooring and wall cavities. The more square footage affected, the more equipment, labor, and materials the job requires.

Get a quote ↗A roof leak that only soaked drywall is cheaper to fix than one that compromised roof framing, ceiling joists, or load-bearing walls. Structural repairs require permits and engineering in some cases.
Get a quote ↗Carpet and padding are usually removed and replaced. Hardwood can often be dried and saved if we get to it fast. Tile and luxury vinyl may need to come up to dry the subfloor underneath.
Get a quote ↗“A pine came through our roof during a storm and we had water pouring into the living room. These guys were on-site in under an hour with tarps and pumps. They documented everything for our insurance, dried the house in four days, and rebuilt the ceiling. You could not tell anything happened. Highly recommend.”

✓ Verified“Storm surge pushed water into our ground floor and we panicked. The crew walked us through every step, handled the adjuster calls, and pulled out the wet carpet padding the same night. Three weeks later the house was completely rebuilt. They know what they are doing.”
Danielle R.Homeowner, East Beach
✓ Verified“We manage six rentals and after every named storm we call these guys first. They show up, they work clean, and their documentation is good enough that our insurance claims get approved without a fight. That is worth more than saving a few hundred bucks on a cheaper crew.”

Yes, in most cases. Wind damage is covered under standard homeowners policies, and storm surge flooding is covered if you carry a separate flood policy through NFIP or a private carrier. We document everything with photos, moisture readings, and Xactimate line items so your adjuster has what they need to approve the claim.
Emergency stabilization happens the same day. Structural drying typically runs three to five days. Full reconstruction - drywall, flooring, roofing, paint - usually takes two to six weeks depending on scope and permit timelines in Jackson County. We give you a written schedule after the assessment.
