    Storm Damage Restoration in Madison

    Storm Risk Across Madison and Dane County

    Dane County sees severe thunderstorms and straight-line wind from late spring through August, moving across open farmland with nothing to weaken them before they reach Middleton, Sun Prairie, and Verona. Those events strip roofing across whole subdivisions rather than damaging single homes.

    Winter is the longer season of risk. Heavy snow load and repeated freeze-thaw cycling build ice dams at the eaves of older isthmus homes with original attic insulation, and meltwater backs up under shingles into ceilings and exterior walls weeks after the snowfall itself.

    Water is a constant here because of the lakes. Homes near Mendota, Monona, and Wingra sit on high water table ground, so heavy rain and rapid snowmelt push groundwater into basements and crawlspaces even in properties that took no roof damage at all.

    Storm Damage We Handle in Madison

    Ice dam intrusion at eaves and valleys in Marquette, Vilas, and Nakoma, where we open and dry the ceiling and wall cavity instead of repainting over wet insulation.

    Wind-lifted roofing across Middleton, Sun Prairie, and Fitchburg, tarped and secured the same day before the next system arrives.

    High water table basement and crawlspace intrusion near Lake Mendota and Lake Monona, extracted and dried with monitored equipment and documented dry standard readings.

    Tree and limb strikes on mature canopy streets across the isthmus and near west side, where older roof decking needs assessment before it is closed back up.

    Storm Board-Up in Madison

    Wind-blown debris and fallen limbs leave openings that let rain in within hours. We board windows and doors and secure the structure as soon as conditions are safe, then start drying anything that already got wet.

    Emergency Roof Tarping in Madison

    A properly fastened tarp over a damaged roof stops the next rain from soaking attic insulation and ceilings. We tarp the same day where possible, photograph the damage for your carrier, and can handle the permanent roof repair afterward.

    FAQ

    Storm Damage Restoration Services Questions

    We begin deploying crews during the storm when safe to do so, and ramp up response immediately after. For major storms, we bring in additional crews from our other locations to ensure fast coverage.

    First, ensure everyone is safe and avoid downed power lines. Document all damage with photos and video before moving anything. Call your insurance company to start a claim and get a claim number. Hire a licensed restoration contractor for emergency tarping and water mitigation, your policy requires you to prevent further damage. Save all receipts.

    We strongly recommend against going on a damaged roof yourself. Falls are the leading cause of storm-related injuries. Call us and we will have a crew there quickly with proper safety equipment.
