Wind And Storm Damage Restoration

What We Can Handle

  • Roof damage: missing shingles, lifted roofing, damaged decking, ridge and hip damage, and skylights
  • Structural framing damage: rafter and truss failure from wind uplift or fallen trees
  • Siding and exterior cladding: blown-off panels, cracks, and penetrations in stucco, wood, or composite siding
  • Window and door systems: impact-damaged, blown-out, or racked frames from structural movement
  • Fascia, soffit, and gutters: common high-wind damage often under-scoped in initial adjustments
  • Fallen tree impact: from localized punch-through to multi-system structural failure
  • Rain and water intrusion: interior damage resulting from storm-compromised envelope
  • Detached structures: garages, sheds, and outbuildings

Why Storm Damage Scopes Are Often Incomplete

Storm claims are among the most frequently under-scoped property losses. Adjusters doing drive-by or roof-only inspections miss siding damage, soffit and fascia loss, structural damage to wall framing, and water intrusion in wall cavities. DH Construction’s estimators conduct full-envelope assessments, not just visible roof inspection, and prepare Xactimate scopes that capture the complete damage picture.

We also watch for code-required upgrades triggered by storm repairs. In California and Nevada, replacing a significant portion of a roof or exterior may require upgrades to current codes; costs that must be properly documented and supplemented in the insurance file.

Insurance: Storm Claims And What To Expect

Wind and storm damage claims are time-sensitive. Most policies require prompt notice and have provisions about temporary repairs. DH Construction works within those requirements, documenting all emergency stabilization costs separately so they’re properly included in your claim.

As a preferred vendor for multiple major carriers, our team is experienced with the supplement process for storm claims, including code upgrades, concealed damage discovered during demolition, and scope expansions for secondary water damage.

DH Construction is not a storm chaser. We’re a 30+ year reconstruction firm with established carrier relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions: Wind Damage Restoration

Does homeowner’s insurance cover wind damage?

Yes, most standard homeowner’s policies (HO-3 and HO-5) cover wind and hail damage as named perils or as part of open-peril coverage. The key is proper documentation of the damage and a reconstruction scope that matches what your policy covers. DH Construction prepares Xactimate-based estimates that align with what your adjuster expects, and we manage supplements when damage is found beyond the initial scope.

How soon do you need to start repairs after a storm?

As soon as possible. Open roof sections, broken windows, and damaged siding are active entry points for water. Even a day or two of rain intrusion after a storm can double the scope of reconstruction. DH Construction provides emergency board-up and tarping only in the Sacramento, CA area. By doing so, we secure the structure immediately after a loss, stopping secondary damage while the insurance claim moves forward.

A tree fell on my house. What does reconstruction involve?

Tree impact losses can range from localized roof damage to multi-system structural failure. DH Construction’s assessment covers the full impact envelope: roof framing, exterior walls, window and door systems, and any interior damage from water intrusion. We document everything for your insurer and manage the scope from demolition through final finish. Debris removal is coordinated as part of the project.

What if the storm caused water damage inside the house?

DH Construction handles both the structural repairs and the interior water damage in a single reconstruction scope. Our water damage reconstruction team works alongside the structural crew so the project is managed as one claim, not two separate contractor engagements.
