Storm Damage Cleanup in Hunters Pointe

We'll dry out your home in Hunters Pointe after storm water gets in through the roof or the basement.

Storms Here

Storms here can bring damaging wind. If your insurance company asks for a storm date, NWS Indianapolis keeps a list of past events.

Where Storm Water Ends Up

With full basements common here, a big storm can bring water in from below as well as through the roof. That makes it a basement flooding job too.

After a storm we can be anywhere in Hunters Pointe, from El Dorado to the roads around Greenwood Park Mall and the Old Town Historic District. Nearby, we also dry out storm damage in Center Grove.

Expert Storm Damage for Hunters Pointe Homeowners

A wet ceiling cavity that nobody dries becomes a ceiling that's got to come down, and the gap between those two jobs is usually a few days. Water sits on top of the drywall, the paper facing lets go, and the fasteners start pulling through. Hunters Pointe Water Restoration dispatches a crew to storm water calls in Hunters Pointe, IN within 2 hours, measures what the assembly is holding, and dries what can still be saved before the material fails.

Ask any company that bids your storm damage to show the readings behind its scope. Hunters Pointe Water Restoration puts a reading or a photo behind every line, from the tarp to the last ceiling patch in your Hunters Pointe home. If another bid replaces more ceiling or more insulation, those readings are the way to compare the two apples to apples.

On a basement job the crew studies where the water is coming from before the pumps start. The sump basin gets cleared and checked, and the floor drains get watched for backup. When water is returning quickly, the source gets sorted out first, because a refilling basement can't be dried in your Hunters Pointe home.

Hunters Pointe Water Restoration lists the emergency cover, the drying and the rebuild as separate parts of your Hunters Pointe storm job, so you can see what each one costs. The cover stops new water, the drying gets the house back to dry readings, and the rebuild puts back what came out. You approve each part in writing, and the photos and readings stay with every line.

Water pulled out early leaves more of your flooring in place. Hunters Pointe Water Restoration extracts and starts the drying on storm calls in Hunters Pointe, then reads the subfloor to see what can stay. Call (765) 703-7292 and describe what you're seeing, and a technician will tell you what to do while the crew gets ready.

Our Process

How Hunters Pointe Water Restoration Handles Storm Damage

We follow these steps in order on every Hunters Pointe job.

1

Wall Cavity Inspection

Baseboards and window trim come off where readings run high, and small inspection holes show whether the cavity behind them holds water. Windows and doors that took wind driven rain usually leave the wall base wet first.

2

Attic and Cavity Drying

Air movers aim at wet surfaces, dehumidification is sized to the containment volume, and negative air cavity drying runs through small ports where a ceiling or wall doesn't have to come down to dry. Humidity gets tracked inside and outside the drying area.

3

Photo Report

Entry point photos, the water path, the daily readings and the itemized scope go into a photo report you keep. The crew walks you through it, and you sign off on the scope in writing before there's any demolition.

4

Clearance Verification

Final moisture readings are taken on every affected material at the same marked locations and compared against the unaffected baseline recorded at the start. Equipment comes out once that comparison's documented, containment follows, and the verification sheet goes into your file.

5

Final Walkthrough

Once the clearance readings are documented, the equipment comes out and the technician walks the rooms with you. The removed materials and the photo file get reviewed together so you know what repairs come next.

Common Questions

Storm Damage FAQ

Questions Hunters Pointe homeowners ask us about storm damage restoration.

Tell the person who answers where you see water and whether it's still coming in. Say whether the power is on and roughly when it started, and mention anything you've already moved or turned off. Hunters Pointe Water Restoration uses those details to plan the visit and to tell you what to do in the meantime, such as which circuits to leave off and which rooms to stay out of.
Compare what's behind each line, because two quotes that look alike can describe different amounts of work. Ask how many days of equipment are planned and what readings set that number. Ask what gets removed and whether the quote shows the moisture reading behind each removal. A scope tied to photos and meter readings is the easiest kind to compare, and that's how Hunters Pointe Water Restoration writes it for your Hunters Pointe home.
Yes, if it's safe. Take dated wide shots of each wet room and close ups of the stains and any damaged belongings, and leave wet insulation and drywall where they sit. The crew adds moisture readings and a photo report of its own, so your Hunters Pointe file ends up with two views of the loss.
Aaron Christy founded the company in 2018, and he's still at the head of it. The company holds a BBB A+ rating and has been BBB accredited since 2019. Crews handle storm water calls across central Indiana, including Hunters Pointe, from the tarp over the opening to the ceiling that goes back up, and every job gets a photo report, daily readings and a written scope you approve.
Three to five days of equipment time is typical for a single room ceiling intrusion once the opening is covered, and a saturated attic with several rooms affected often runs five to eight. The number comes from the daily readings, so it moves with the materials. Dense material like plaster, hardwood and framing lumber gives up water slowly and can stretch it out. Reconstruction adds its own time after the structure reads dry, and the drywall, texture and paint schedule depends on how much ceiling's been cut out.
Water that backs up through a floor drain comes from the drain line, so it's generally treated as contaminated, and the cleanup follows Category 3 precautions. The crew uses containment and protective gear, and porous materials the water soaked are usually removed and discarded. Mention the drain to Hunters Pointe Water Restoration when you call so the plan for your Hunters Pointe basement starts with the right protection.
Wiping the surface treats the surface only, and the cavity behind a clean looking wall can stay wet. The moisture sits in the drywall and the framing, and drying is what removes the conditions mold needs. A wet wall that looks fine is common after a storm, so Hunters Pointe Water Restoration reads the wall in your Hunters Pointe home with meters and a thermal camera instead of judging it by appearance.
Keep windows shut while it's raining or humid, because outdoor air can add moisture instead of removing it. Regular household fans can move wet air around and spread dust or contamination if floodwater was involved. Leave the heating or cooling at its normal setting unless the equipment got wet. Hunters Pointe Water Restoration sets up the drying in your Hunters Pointe home so the air movers and dehumidifiers work together.
Numbers off a meter, compared against unaffected material in the same house. A technician records baseline readings in rooms the water never reached on the first visit, then reads the affected materials at the same marked spots every day after that. Drying's finished when the affected readings match the baseline, which is a different number in every house depending on materials and season. Ambient conditions get logged as well, since temperature and humidity inside containment determine how fast the materials can give up water at all.
Drywall acts like a wick and pulls water up above the line you can see, and the insulation behind it holds that water against the framing. A flood cut takes the board off above the highest point the readings show wicking, which opens the cavity so the framing can be read and dried. The cut height is measured and photographed in your Hunters Pointe home, and the repair crew starts from that line.
