- Minor storm damage may be safe to handle yourself, but larger losses are best left to certified professionals — standing water, contaminated floodwater, hidden moisture, and compromised structures all carry real health and safety risks. Professional crews use industrial water extraction, structural drying, and moisture detection to prevent mold and secondary damage that DIY cleanup usually misses. Keep people and pets away from standing water and downed lines until the area is cleared.

- Storm damage is a broad category covering wind, hail, rain intrusion, and fallen debris, while flood damage specifically refers to rising external water entering the property. The distinction matters for insurance: standard homeowners policies often cover storm-related water intrusion but exclude flooding, which requires separate flood coverage. Restoration 1 is equipped and certified to handle both and will help you document the damage correctly for your claim.
