The Storms That Damage Edmonton Properties
Hail on roofs and siding
In August 2019 large hail and winds up to 91 km/h damaged siding and vehicles in west Edmonton, Spruce Grove and Stony Plain. Hail can bruise shingles and crack siding and skylights in ways that let rain in days later, so roofs should be checked after any hailstorm.
Cloudburst flooding
A heavy thunderstorm can flood streets, yards and basements in a short time. In July 2012 a thunderstorm had firefighters rescuing people from swamped vehicles and flooded homes in southside Edmonton. Window wells and overloaded drains are common entry points.
Storm runoff and the sewer system
When a neighbourhood sewer is near capacity, storm water and wastewater can come back into a basement. Water that entered this way is contaminated and needs cleaning and disinfection as well as drying.

Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration, and What To Do First
- Missing or lifted shingles, or a tree limb on the roof
- Water stains on ceilings after wind-driven rain
- Broken windows, doors, or siding
- Water in the basement after a flash flood
- Ice dams along the roof edge with water inside the house
- A musty smell in the attic in the weeks after a storm
Stay away from downed power lines and do not enter a flooded basement until the power is off. If it is safe, cover openings and move valuables away from leaks, take photos of the damage, and call (587) 315-1498 so we can tarp, board up, and start drying.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on how the storm got in: through the roof, through broken openings, or through the basement. Wind and hail damage often lets water into attics and wall cavities, where it spreads before stains appear. We inspect the whole path of the water and document it for your adjuster.
Tarping and board-up happen the same day. Drying usually takes 3 to 5 days, and repairs follow, with timing that depends on roofing and material availability after widespread storms.
What We Restore After a Storm
- Roofs and attics after wind and hail
- Ceilings and drywall after wind-driven rain
- Basements after flash floods
- Windows, doors, and siding
- Ceilings and walls after ice dams
- Garages and outbuildings
- Contents and furniture
- Commercial roofs and storefronts
