The Storms That Damage Etna Properties
Windstorms across eastern Idaho
On December 17, 2025 a windstorm knocked down transmission lines and dozens of power poles in the American Falls and Aberdeen areas, with warming shelters opened at American Falls High School, and the storm caused fallen trees, broken lines and collapsed buildings across eastern Idaho. In February 2017 wind also took down steel power poles leading to Teton Village.
Roofs under snow load
Heavy snow collapsed the roof of the Sears store in Jackson in February 2017, and the Blue Moon Bar and Grill roof in Lava Hot Springs collapsed on March 1, 2023 after a winter of heavy snow. Snow load, ice dams and drifting on low roofs can strain structure, and a failed roof lets weather in.
Hail, rain and mudslides
A storm on May 23, 2023 flooded four Idaho Falls city buildings, including the Civic Center basement, and an August 1, 2019 hailstorm and mudslides closed Highway 26/89 in the Snake River Canyon between Hoback Junction and Alpine. Hail breaks roofing, and the rain that follows reaches insulation and ceilings.

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 (307) 204-7390 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
