You’re not just getting debris cleared and tarps thrown up. You’re getting your life back on track without the headaches that usually come with storm damage restoration.
We handle everything from the first emergency call through the final walkthrough. That means you’re dealing with one company instead of juggling contractors, insurance adjusters, and cleanup crews who don’t communicate with each other. No phone tag between different companies trying to figure out who’s responsible for what.
Most property owners are surprised how quickly we can stabilize damage and prevent bigger problems from developing. The key is moving fast with professional equipment and knowing exactly what needs attention first. Water extraction happens immediately to prevent mold growth. Emergency board-up keeps additional weather out. Debris removal happens safely without damaging what’s still intact.
Flood Guys Restoration has been cleaning up after Wisconsin storms for years, and we understand how quickly our weather can turn from calm to catastrophic. We’re ready for it because we’ve seen what storms can do to Downtown Wisconsin properties.
Our team knows the difference between straight-line wind damage and tornado damage. We recognize when flooding from storms requires immediate mold prevention versus standard water extraction. We understand how Wisconsin’s mature tree canopy creates unique challenges during wind events. These details matter when you’re trying to save your property and your peace of mind.
Downtown Wisconsin gets hit with everything from severe thunderstorms to ice storms, and the older construction in many neighborhoods requires specialized restoration approaches. We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t when it comes to storm damage restoration in our climate and building types.
First, we secure your property to prevent additional damage. That means emergency board-up for broken windows and doors, roof tarping for damaged areas, and debris removal to clear access routes. Safety comes first, then immediate stabilization of whatever storm damage occurred.
Next, we document everything for your insurance claim while starting water extraction and moisture control. We’re taking detailed photos, measuring moisture levels in walls and floors, and creating the comprehensive documentation your insurance company needs to process your claim quickly. Our moisture meters detect hidden water that could cause mold growth if missed.
Then we start the actual restoration work based on a detailed plan we review with you first. Water-damaged materials get removed and replaced. Structural repairs happen according to local building codes. We rebuild to pre-storm condition using quality materials that match your existing property. You get regular updates throughout the process, not weeks of wondering what’s happening.

Wisconsin storms don’t just cause one type of damage, and we don’t provide just one type of solution. You might have wind damage, water damage, and debris damage all from the same storm event. We handle the complete restoration process so you’re not coordinating multiple contractors.
Tree removal and debris cleanup happen first so we can assess what’s underneath and plan repairs accordingly. Professional water extraction and structural drying prevent mold growth that would cost thousands more later and create health risks for your family. Emergency repairs keep additional weather out while permanent restoration work gets scheduled and completed.
Downtown Wisconsin properties face unique challenges during storm events. Older construction methods, mature landscaping, and urban drainage patterns can complicate storm damage restoration. We factor in these local conditions when planning your restoration timeline and determining the best approach for your specific property and situation.
We provide 24/7 emergency response for storm damage throughout Downtown, Wisconsin, with most emergency calls receiving response within 1-2 hours depending on current storm conditions and road accessibility.
During major storm events affecting multiple properties, we prioritize calls based on immediate safety risks and potential for additional property damage. Life-threatening situations like trees on houses or major structural damage get immediate attention. Water intrusion and roof damage get handled as quickly as possible to prevent secondary damage like mold growth or structural deterioration.
Our local presence means we’re not driving hours to reach you during storm emergencies. We know the Downtown Wisconsin area and can navigate around storm damage, power outages, and blocked roads to reach your property faster than restoration companies based in other cities or states.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies for storm damage claims and can often bill them directly for covered services, which eliminates out-of-pocket expenses for you on approved work. We handle the documentation, detailed photos, and paperwork that insurance adjusters need to process your claim efficiently.
Our team understands exactly what insurance companies look for in storm damage claims and how they evaluate different types of damage. We document everything properly from the initial assessment, which speeds up your claim approval and gets restoration work started faster. Many insurance companies prefer working with established restoration contractors because we understand their requirements and documentation standards.
We’ll also help you understand what’s typically covered under Wisconsin homeowner policies and what might require out-of-pocket payment. Storm damage coverage can be complex, especially when you have multiple types of damage from the same weather event, and we make sure you understand the process before work begins.
We handle all types of storm damage common to Wisconsin weather patterns, including wind damage restoration, hail damage repair, water damage from storms, fallen tree damage cleanup, and comprehensive debris removal services. Our equipment and training cover everything from minor roof leaks to major structural damage requiring reconstruction.
Wind damage restoration includes roof repairs, siding replacement, window and door repairs, and structural stabilization when framing is affected. Water damage from storms requires immediate extraction, professional drying, and mold prevention services using industrial-grade equipment. Tree damage often involves emergency tree removal, debris cleanup, and repairs to whatever structures the tree damaged when it fell.
Wisconsin storms frequently cause complex damage patterns that require comprehensive restoration services. A single severe thunderstorm might cause roof damage that leads to water intrusion that creates mold risk if not handled properly. We manage the entire restoration process so you’re not coordinating multiple contractors for interconnected damage issues.
Mold prevention after storm water damage requires immediate water extraction and professional structural drying within 24-48 hours of the water intrusion event. We use industrial-grade dehumidifiers, high-velocity air movers, and precision moisture meters to ensure complete drying of all affected building materials.
Our restoration team removes water-damaged materials that cannot be properly dried and restored, such as soaked insulation, severely damaged drywall, and flooring materials that have absorbed significant moisture. We also treat remaining surfaces with EPA-approved antimicrobial solutions to prevent mold spores from establishing colonies during the drying process.
Wisconsin’s humidity levels and seasonal temperature variations make professional mold prevention especially critical after storm water damage. Even minor water intrusion can lead to extensive mold problems if not addressed with proper equipment and techniques. Our moisture detection equipment identifies hidden water in wall cavities and structural components that might not be visible but could support mold growth later.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency board-up and roof tarping services to secure your property immediately after storm damage, preventing further damage from weather exposure, animal intrusion, and unauthorized entry while permanent repairs are planned and scheduled.
Emergency board-up services involve securing broken windows, damaged doors, and structural openings with exterior-grade plywood and weatherproofing materials designed to withstand additional weather exposure. Professional roof tarping covers damaged roof areas with heavy-duty waterproof tarps that can handle wind and precipitation until permanent roofing repairs are completed.
These emergency protective services are typically covered by homeowner insurance policies as part of storm damage claims, helping prevent additional damage that would increase your total claim amount. We document all emergency work thoroughly for your insurance company and coordinate directly with adjusters to ensure proper coverage and reimbursement.
Storm damage restoration timelines vary significantly based on damage severity and scope, but most residential projects are completed within 1-3 weeks from initial emergency services through final restoration. Emergency stabilization and water extraction happen within hours of our arrival, while complete restoration depends on the extent of damage and material availability.
Minor storm damage such as small roof leaks, limited water intrusion, or single-tree debris removal might be completed within a few days once materials are available. Major damage involving structural repairs, extensive water damage affecting multiple rooms, or damage to multiple building systems typically requires 2-3 weeks for complete restoration to pre-storm condition.
Wisconsin weather patterns can affect restoration timelines, particularly during winter months when exterior work becomes weather-dependent and material delivery may be delayed by road conditions. We plan restoration projects around seasonal considerations and maintain clear communication about any weather-related delays that might affect your specific timeline or completion date.
