The Storms That Damage Nashville Properties
Tornadoes
On April 10, 2009, an EF-4 tornado with winds near 170 mph tracked 23.25 miles from near Eagleville through northern Murfreesboro, destroying 194 homes. In March 2020, tornadoes destroyed more than 140 buildings in Middle Tennessee. We tarp and board up first.
Flash floods
In May 2010, 13.57 inches fell in two days and the Cumberland crested nearly 12 feet above flood stage. Storm rain can flood homes miles from any river when creeks and storm drains overflow.
Ice and freeze
Winter storms bring ice-loaded trees through roofs and frozen pipes in crawl spaces and attics. Leaks often appear only when the line thaws.

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 or crawl space after a flash flood
- Ice-laden limbs or trees down on the roof after an ice storm
- 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 (629) 895-7516 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 and crawl spaces after flash floods
- Windows, doors, and siding
- Roofs and ceilings after tornadoes and fallen trees
- Garages and outbuildings
- Contents and furniture
- Commercial roofs and storefronts
