Storm Damage in Rio Rancho
There are several damaging types of storms that can affect the Rio Rancho area at any time. All homes and buildings are at risk for damage during any severe storm. The following are the most common storms that can affect your property:
- Severe Thunderstorms: Thunderstorms may not seem like a major threat, but they can cause water damage and exterior damage with strong winds and rain. If the rain is heavy enough, these storms can even result in flooding.
- Hail Storms: Hail storms are quite common in the Rio Rancho area and they can cause serious physical damage to the exterior of your home or building, including roof damage and broken windows.
- Monsoons: Monsoons are likely to occur between May and October and they bring strong winds and heavy rain. The winds are strong enough to cause serious property damage and blow over large objects like trees and utility poles. The rain from a monsoon can cause flash flooding to occur very quickly.
- Wind Storms: East wind storms can bring winds of over 20 mph that are powerful enough to damage homes and buildings.
Once one of these storms passes, you must do a thorough inspection of your property to look for any resulting damage. Any storm damage, including water damage or damage to the exterior or structural core of your building, must be addressed right away by our professionals. Our technicians will limit the damage by stabilizing your home or building and we will implement a complete restoration plan based on the extent of the damage.
Our storm damage restoration services typically include the following:
- Board-Up and Tarping: Wind, hail, and debris can cause significant damage to the windows, siding and roof of your home or building. Our technicians start by stabilizing the structural core of the building and covering damaged areas with boards and tarp to prevent further damage or collapse.
- Flood and Water Damage Restoration: Any storm that consists of rain can result in water damage or flooding in your home or building. Water damage is dangerous because the water spreads through porous building materials like wood and drywall, causing damage to these materials that can threaten their structural integrity. The presence of excess water also increases the risk for mold growth. Our technicians use advanced extraction and drying equipment to remove standing water as well as excess moisture from the damaged materials.
- Structural Repairs: Damage to the structural core or exterior of your building will get worse and put the building at risk of collapse. We will repair the damage to the exterior and structural core to ensure that the building is stable.
