Service Overview

How We Approach It

Wind-driven rain through compromised siding, hurricane remnant flooding, nor'easter ice damming, summer thunderstorm hail — different storm types create different damage patterns. Our East Rutherford crew has worked the Bergen County storm patterns long enough that we recognize what we are walking into from the dispatch description.

What's Included

  • Emergency board-up + tarping
  • Wind-driven rain water extraction
  • Roof + envelope repair
  • Tree impact damage
  • Insurance documentation
  • Full structural rebuild

Common NJ Storm Patterns We Handle

Tropical storms (Aug-Nov): wind damage to roofs and siding, wind-driven rain through compromised envelopes, occasional surge flooding in shore communities. Hurricane remnants tracking up the coast generate the bulk of our late-summer call volume.

Nor'easters (Oct-Apr): sustained heavy rain over multiple days creates roof leaks at flashing transitions, ice damming on cold-weather events, and wind damage similar to tropical storms. The NJ shore takes the worst of nor'easter activity but inland counties also see significant water intrusion.

Ice storms: tree impact damage from ice loading on branches, ice damming where roof eaves are inadequately insulated, and burst pipes in unheated spaces (garages, attics, crawlspaces, vacant properties). The frozen-pipe-burst calls dominate the post-ice-storm response window.

Summer thunderstorms: straight-line winds (similar damage profile to tornadoes), hail damage to roofs and siding, lightning strikes that cause electrical fires, and flash flooding when sustained rainfall exceeds storm-drain capacity in older neighborhoods.

What to Do in the First Hour After Storm Damage

The actions that matter in the first hour: secure the property if safe to do so, document the damage with photos, file the insurance claim, and call a restoration crew that can dispatch immediately. The actions that hurt the claim: signing AOB paperwork from a storm-chase contractor, throwing damaged contents away before documentation, attempting permanent repairs before the carrier has had a chance to inspect, or letting the property sit exposed because "the contractor will be here tomorrow."

For roof openings, get a tarp up if it is safe. For broken windows, board the opening to prevent further weather + animal intrusion. For interior water from a roof leak, place buckets under active drips and move what you can save away from the path of travel. Don't try to lift wet sheetrock yourself — it crumbles and makes the cleanup worse.

Photograph the loss in its current state — wide shots, close-ups, anything visible from the source of intrusion to the damaged contents. Before-photos are the foundation of the insurance scope. Without them, the adjuster has no basis to evaluate what was there before the loss.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't see your question, just call or message us.

Do you offer free estimates? +

For property losses (water, fire, storm, sewage), we provide a no-cost on-site assessment and an Xactimate scope of work. For non-emergency reconstruction or mold remediation we provide a written estimate after on-site evaluation. We do not give phone-quote prices for restoration work — accurate scoping requires seeing the loss in person.

What certifications do your technicians hold? +

Our crew holds IICRC certifications in Water Damage Restoration (WRT), Applied Structural Drying (ASD), and Applied Microbial Remediation (AMRT) per IICRC S500/S520 standards. Specific cert status of any technician on your job is available on request — we do not stretch certifications we do not actually hold.

How do you decide what materials to remove vs save? +

IICRC S500 has clear material removal criteria based on water category and how long the material was wet. Cat-1 water + reached within 24-48 hours = often save in place. Cat-3 water = porous materials always come out. Borderline cases get the moisture-meter test: substrate that returns to dry standard with equipment runtime gets saved; substrate that stalls above dry standard for 5+ days gets removed.

Can you work in occupied condo and apartment buildings? +

Yes — we have COIs ($2M general liability + workers comp, additional insured naming the building) on file for most major condo and apartment complexes in our service area. We work within building noise windows, use service elevators, and coordinate with building management on access protocols. For larger buildings we are pre-cleared for vendor approval so paperwork does not delay active-loss response.

What if I find more damage after the work is done? +

If hidden damage emerges after reconstruction completes — usually because moisture migrated through a path that was not visible during initial scoping — we re-engage at no additional charge for the warranty period (typically 1 year on workmanship). Beyond warranty, we re-evaluate as a new claim. The initial documentation we keep on file makes the second claim faster and clearer for the adjuster.

Do you handle commercial restoration? +

Yes, we handle small to mid-size commercial restoration in Bergen County — offices, retail, medical, light industrial. Commercial work has different operational tempo than residential (tenant operations come first, after-hours noise scheduling, larger COI requirements). We have separate residential and commercial tech rotations because the workflows differ.

Are your prices in line with what insurance pays? +

Yes — our scopes are written in Xactimate at carrier-standard pricing for the NJ market. We do not inflate scope to chase coverage and we do not cut corners to under-bid. The price reflects the work IICRC standards require for the loss type. Adjusters see our scopes regularly and approve them without back-and-forth because the line items match the documented conditions.
