Storm Damage Cleanup Services in 29706, SC
Storm Damage Water Extraction

When heavy rain overwhelms a sump or comes through window wells, the pros extract the water and dry the basement framing and finishes.
Wall Cavity Drying After Storms
When siding is torn or cracked in a storm, rain gets into the wall. The inside is dried while the outside is covered until it can be repaired.

Plywood is fastened over broken glass and damaged doors right after the storm. It stays until the window or door can be replaced.
