24/7 emergency dispatch

Commercial storm damage? Protect your property fast.

Storm damage can send water into commercial roofs, ceilings, walls, basements, tenant spaces, offices, retail areas, restaurants, warehouses, equipment rooms, and hidden spaces. The Flood Team helps remove water, dry affected areas, reduce downtime, support repairs, and document the damage for insurance.

If storm water is entering your business, restrict access to unsafe areas, avoid electrical hazards, and call for help right away.

What to do right now

First steps after commercial storm damage

Act fast: restrict unsafe areas, avoid electrical hazards, protect critical business items if safe, take photos, and call a 24/7 commercial storm damage team before water spreads into walls, ceilings, floors, inventory, and tenant spaces.

01.

Restrict access to unsafe areas

Keep employees, customers, tenants, vendors, and visitors away from standing water, wet electrical areas, sagging ceilings, storm-damaged rooms, slippery surfaces, or contaminated water.

02.

Avoid electrical hazards

Do not touch outlets, cords, equipment, breaker panels, HVAC systems, kitchen equipment, electrical rooms, or wet ceiling fixtures near affected areas.

03.

Do not enter dangerous roof or ceiling areas

Avoid climbing onto the roof or standing under sagging ceilings, bubbling drywall, leaking fixtures, or areas where storm water may be trapped above the surface.

04.

Protect critical business items if safe

Move inventory, records, electronics, equipment, furniture, supplies, documents, and high-value items away from wet areas if it is safe to do so.

05.

Take photos if safe

Document water entry points, wet flooring, ceiling stains, wall damage, basement water, damaged inventory, equipment, furniture, and affected rooms before cleanup begins.

06.

Call for commercial water removal"

Storm water can spread through commercial spaces quickly. Professional water removal, drying, moisture checks, and documentation can help reduce downtime and repair complexity.

Do not wait for normal business hours. Storm water can spread through shared walls, ceilings, tenant spaces, storage rooms, flooring systems, insulation, and equipment areas before the full damage is visible.

Will insurance help with this?

Coverage depends on your commercial policy, how the storm water entered, whether wind damage, roof damage, sewer backup, drain backup, outside flooding, or long-term maintenance issues are involved, and the type of property affected. The Flood Team helps document photos, moisture readings, affected materials, cleanup steps, drying progress, and repair scope details so the claim process is easier to manage.

Why commercial storm damage needs fast action

Commercial storm damage can happen after heavy rain, wind-driven water, roof leaks, damaged flashing, broken windows, clogged drainage, sump pump failure, basement flooding, or water entering through doors, walls, loading areas, or foundation points.

Even after the storm passes, the property may still need water extraction, structural drying, moisture checks, mold prevention, damaged material removal, repair support, safety coordination, odor control, and insurance documentation.

Water can enter from multiple points

Storm water may enter through the roof, windows, doors, basement areas, loading docks, wall openings, drains, or foundation points depending on the property.

Business disruption can grow quickly

Storm damage can affect customer areas, tenant spaces, offices, inventory, storage rooms, kitchens, equipment rooms, and daily operations.

Hidden materials can stay wet

Drywall, insulation, flooring, ceiling systems, trim, framing, carpet, and commercial finishes can hold moisture after visible water is removed.

Every hour counts.

The faster water removal and drying begin, the lower the risk of business disruption, hidden moisture, mold, damaged materials, odor, and larger reconstruction needs.

How we fix it

One team for the whole commercial storm damage emergency

We do more than remove visible water. The Flood Team helps identify affected areas, control water entry where possible, extract water, dry commercial materials, document the damage, and support repairs so your property can move from storm damage to recovery.

Control the water entry

The roof leak, storm opening, drainage issue, basement intrusion, sump pump failure, drain backup, or related water entry point needs to be controlled before full cleanup and drying can move forward.

Commercial water extraction

Standing water is removed from offices, retail spaces, restaurants, warehouses, basements, tenant spaces, hallways, storage areas, flooring, carpet, and affected rooms.

Structural drying

Air movers, dehumidifiers, and moisture checks help dry floors, walls, ceilings, insulation areas, framing, storage spaces, equipment areas, and hidden commercial materials.

Restore and repair

After drying, damaged drywall, flooring, ceilings, trim, paint, insulation, cabinets, commercial finishes, and other materials may need repair or reconstruction.

Documentation that makes the process easier

The Flood Team helps document commercial storm damage with photos, moisture readings, affected material notes, cleanup details, drying progress, and repair scope support. We do not decide coverage, but we help make the restoration side of the claim easier to understand.

Photos of affected areas

Water entry points, wet flooring, ceiling stains, wall damage, tenant spaces, equipment areas, inventory, furniture, and damaged materials can be documented before and during cleanup.

Moisture readings

Moisture checks help show where storm water traveled and what materials may need drying, removal, or repair.

Cleanup and drying notes

Water extraction, drying equipment, dehumidification, affected area notes, access notes, safety notes, and progress details can be recorded during the job.

Repair scope support

Damaged drywall, flooring, ceilings, trim, insulation, paint, cabinets, commercial finishes, and nearby business areas may need a clear repair scope after drying.

Every hour counts.

The faster water removal and drying begin, the lower the risk of hidden moisture, mold, damaged materials, and larger reconstruction needs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Flood team did a very good job for the mitigation. We did not have any issue after the job was done. Blake gave an estimate, and final price was the same. We had another company estimated, and told us a loose estimate, may be more after the job is done and we have to sign that agreement. We didn't like that. Blake responded very quick and came in a few days after we signed the contract. He kept his words about days when he will be at the house. The other company told us at least a week or more. Blake's estimate was reasonable compared to the other company. He also gave us some knowledge about things which are covered under our insurance. I highly recommend him and the flood team. We will use them again if needed in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Flood Team did a very professional job mitigating the water from our 900 square feet basement. One of the rooms was finished, and they were able to save the carpet. They were able to tow away our damaged goods the same day and carried them all upstairs. They bricked all our furniture for the drying process and promptly and accurately recorded saturation eta the following days to be sure the basement was drying as expected. When the insurance adjuster came to view the damage, a flood team representative came back out to be here in case there were any technical questions about the mitigation process they executed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Reached out to Flood Team and Thor came the same day.  He was professional, knowledgeable, considerate and a hard worker.  Once Thor determined the areas that water existed underneath the underlying floors, he pulled up all damaged flooring.  He also took extra care when moving my furniture, he strategically set up humidifiers and industrial fans on two floors to speed up the drying process.  He checked in daily to give updates.  Highly recommend
