The Problem

Storm Damage Risks Facing Dallas Properties

Dallas sits in one of the most storm-active regions in the United States. The DFW metro experiences an average of 15-20 severe thunderstorm events per year.

The Dallas–Fort Worth metro ranks among the top 5 U.S. metros for annual hail damage insurance claims. North Texas severe weather season runs primarily from March through June, with a secondary peak in October and November. Supercell thunderstorms can produce baseball-sized hail, straight-line winds exceeding 80 mph, and tornadoes — often with less than 15 minutes of warning. Flash flooding is the most lethal severe weather hazard in Texas, and Dallas's combination of impervious clay soil, urban runoff, and creek systems creates rapid flooding during intense rainfall. The June 2019 crane collapse during a supercell event in Uptown demonstrated how quickly Dallas storms can escalate, and multiple neighborhoods from Preston Hollow to Richardson have experienced significant hail and wind damage in consecutive years. Every Dallas property — regardless of age, construction type, or location — faces storm damage risk.

What You're Facing

  • Straight-line winds exceeding 70-80 mph tearing off roof sections, gutters, and breaking windows
  • Large hail (1-3 inch) damaging roof shingles, skylights, siding, and allowing water intrusion
  • Flash flooding from 3-5 inches of rain per hour overwhelming storm drains and property drainage
  • Tornado and microburst damage to structural components, fencing, and trees
  • Fallen trees and large debris impacting roofs, walls, and vehicles
  • Power outages disabling sump pumps and HVAC systems during ongoing rain events

How Dallas Water Damage Solves It

  • Emergency board-up and tarping within hours to prevent ongoing water intrusion
  • Rapid water extraction from every area where storm water entered through damage points
  • Full structural drying of roof decking, wall cavities, attic spaces, and affected rooms
  • Detailed damage documentation with photos and moisture readings for insurance claims
  • Complete storm damage repair — roofing, siding, windows, drywall, flooring, and paint
  • Coordination with roofing contractors for roof replacement when our restoration connects to their scope
Our Process

Our Storm Damage Response Process

Emergency Stabilization

Board-up crews secure broken windows with plywood, tarp damaged roof sections to stop water intrusion, and remove hazardous debris from the immediate area. The goal is to stop the property from taking additional damage while we plan the full restoration.

Water Extraction & Assessment

Storm water that entered through roof damage, broken windows, or flooding is extracted from every affected area. Technicians use thermal imaging to identify water that traveled behind walls and above ceilings from the breach points.

Structural Drying

Industrial air movers and commercial dehumidifiers dry roof decking, attic insulation, wall cavities, and any rooms where storm water accumulated. Moisture monitoring continues daily until every material reaches its dry standard.

Damage Documentation

We photograph and document all storm damage with detailed notes, moisture readings, and an itemized scope of work. This documentation package is formatted for insurance adjusters and supports your claim from day one.

Full Restoration

Damaged roofing materials, siding, windows, drywall, insulation, flooring, and trim are repaired or replaced. We coordinate with roofing and window contractors when the scope extends beyond water damage restoration, ensuring a seamless handoff.

In Depth

Types of Storm Damage in the Dallas Metro

Hail Damage

Dallas-area hailstorms routinely produce stones 1-2 inches in diameter, with major events dropping 3-inch (baseball-sized) hail. Hail impacts fracture roof shingles, crack skylights, dent metal flashing, and compromise the waterproof integrity of your roof. The damage may not cause an immediate leak — but the next rain event drives water through compromised shingles into the roof deck, attic insulation, and eventually through ceilings into living spaces.

Dallas Water Damage handles the water damage that follows hail events: extracting water from ceilings and attics, drying roof decking and insulation, and repairing interior damage while coordinating with your roofing contractor on exterior repairs.

Wind Damage

North Texas thunderstorms regularly produce 60-80 mph straight-line winds, with stronger microbursts and tornadoes possible. Wind damage ranges from lost shingles and displaced gutters to blown-out windows, damaged siding, and structural impacts from fallen trees. Every breach point becomes a water entry point for the rain that accompanies the wind.

Dallas Water Damage provides emergency board-up to seal breach points, then extracts and dries storm water that entered the structure. We handle the full interior restoration — drywall, insulation, flooring, paint — and coordinate with structural and roofing contractors for exterior repairs.

Flash Flood Damage

Dallas flash floods occur when intense rainfall (3+ inches per hour) overwhelms storm drain capacity. Water enters properties through garage doors, foundation seepage, window wells, and ground-floor openings. Flash flood water is contaminated (Category 2-3) and requires extraction, material removal, sanitization, and structural drying.

See our dedicated flood damage cleanup page for detailed information on flood water contamination handling and restoration.

Roof Leak Damage

Even moderate storms can exploit aging or previously damaged roofing materials. Storm-driven rain enters through missing shingles, cracked flashing, failed pipe boots, and compromised valleys. Water flows along roof decking, saturates attic insulation, and eventually appears as ceiling stains or active drips — often far from the actual entry point.

Dallas Water Damage traces the water path from the interior damage back to the roof entry point, dries the entire affected path (attic, ceiling cavity, walls), and repairs interior damage.

FAQ

Common Questions About Storm Damage Restoration in Dallas

What should I do immediately after storm damage to my Dallas property?
Ensure everyone's safety first. Do not enter rooms with sagging ceilings or visible structural damage. If safe, place buckets under active drips and move valuables away from water. Take photos of all visible damage. Then call Dallas Water Damage at (940) 226-9728 — we'll dispatch a crew to stabilize and begin restoration.
Does insurance cover storm damage in Dallas?
Most Texas homeowners insurance covers wind and hail damage, subject to your wind/hail deductible (often 1-2% of dwelling coverage in Dallas). Flood damage from rising water requires separate flood insurance. Dallas Water Damage documents all damage thoroughly and works directly with your insurance adjuster.
How fast can Dallas Water Damage respond after a major storm?
We pre-position crews when severe weather is forecast and dispatch 24/7. During major events affecting many properties simultaneously, we triage by severity — properties with ongoing water intrusion (open roofs, broken windows) are prioritized for emergency stabilization.
Can hail damage cause water damage later?
Yes. Hail fractures roof shingles and compromises their waterproof integrity. The next rain event — even a moderate one — can drive water through the damaged areas into your attic, ceiling cavities, and living spaces. If your roof was damaged by hail, monitor for ceiling stains and call Dallas Water Damage if you see signs of water intrusion.
Does Dallas Water Damage repair roofs?
Dallas Water Damage handles all interior water damage restoration (extraction, drying, drywall, flooring, paint) and provides emergency roof tarping. For permanent roof repair or replacement, we coordinate with licensed roofing contractors and ensure a smooth handoff between interior and exterior scopes.
What if a tree fell on my house during a storm?
Call 911 if there is immediate danger, then call Dallas Water Damage. We can provide emergency board-up and tarping to seal the breach, extract any water that entered, and begin interior restoration. Tree removal and structural repair of the impact zone may require additional specialized contractors, which we can help coordinate.
How do I know if storm damage affected areas I can't see?
Water from roof damage often travels along rafters, trusses, and roof decking before appearing as a ceiling stain far from the actual entry point. Dallas Water Damage uses infrared thermal cameras to trace water paths and identify hidden moisture in attics, wall cavities, and ceiling spaces that visual inspection alone would miss.
Should I wait for my insurance adjuster before starting storm damage cleanup?
No. Texas insurance law allows you to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage — this includes emergency board-up, tarping, and water extraction. Waiting for an adjuster while water continues entering your property will increase the damage and may jeopardize your claim. Dallas Water Damage documents everything before and during the work for your adjuster.
