Our Storm Damage Restoration Process

- Structural Drying: We deploy industrial air movers and dehumidifiers to dry walls, floors, and structural framing to IICRC standards.
- Moisture Mapping: Infrared cameras and moisture meters find hidden water behind walls before it becomes a mold problem.
- Mold Prevention: We apply anti-microbial treatments to all affected surfaces.
- Documentation: We provide detailed reports, photos, and moisture readings to support your insurance claim.

Why Choose APT for Storm Damage Restoration?
The Hidden Dangers of Waiting
Flooding Starts Fast
A single inch of stormwater inside a home can cause over $25,000 in damage. The longer water sits, the worse the destruction gets.
Mold in 24–48 Hours
After storm flooding, mold colonies begin forming within 24 to 48 hours on wet drywall, carpet, and wood — even after water appears gone.
Hidden Structural Damage
Wind-driven rain saturates wall cavities and roof decking, causing rot and structural failure that isn't visible until it's a major safety hazard.
