The Storms That Damage Pensacola and South Alabama Properties
Hurricane wind and surge
Hurricane Ivan came ashore in 2004 as a Category 3 with winds near 120 mph, and Hurricane Sally brought gusts to 92 mph in Pensacola in 2020. Wind opens roofs and drops trees, and surge floods the coast. We tarp and board up first.
Tornadoes inland
The National Weather Service confirmed EF-1 tornado damage in Semmes in 2019, and a 2022 storm damaged structures across the Poarch Creek Reservation area near Atmore. A tree through a roof lets rain into attics and ceilings within minutes.
Slow storms and river crests
Sally crawled ashore and dropped more than 22 inches on Pensacola, and creeks and rivers kept rising after the rain stopped. Homes that stayed dry during the storm can flood days later.

Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration, and What To Do First
- Missing or lifted shingles, or granules in the gutters after hail
- Water stains on ceilings after wind-driven rain
- Broken windows or doors
- Fallen trees or limbs on the roof
- Water inside after a flash flood or tropical storm
- Damp insulation in the attic
Stay away from downed power lines and do not enter a flooded room until the power is off. If it is safe, cover openings and move valuables away from leaks, take photos of the damage, and call (251) 480-0488.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on how the storm got in: through the roof, through broken openings, or through flooding at ground level. Wind and hail damage often lets water into attics and wall cavities, where it spreads before it shows on a ceiling.
Tarping and board-up usually happen on the first visit. Drying takes 3 to 5 days in most homes, and repairs follow once the structure is dry and the scope is approved.
What We Restore After a Storm
- Roofs, after tarping and repair
- Attics and insulation
- Ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain
- Windows, doors, and siding
- Ground-floor rooms after flash floods
- Flooring and subfloors
- Fences and exterior structures
- Contents and electronics
Insurance and Documentation for Storm Damage Restoration
We provide Direct Insurance Coordination on storm claims, with photos, readings, and a written scope for your adjuster. Wind and hail damage are usually handled under your homeowner policy, while rising floodwater usually needs a separate flood policy, and some coastal policies carry a separate windstorm or hurricane deductible. We document how the water got in so your adjuster can apply the right coverage.
