On August 4, 2020, a tornado touched down near Leonardtown as Tropical Storm Isaias crossed St. Mary's County, and floodwaters washed away large sections of the Route 6 (New Market Turner Road) bridge outside town. Wind and flooding hit within hours of each other.
For a homeowner, that pairing means roof openings and rising water at once. Tarp or board up openings first so rain stops entering, then extract standing water and dry the structure before mold starts. Water that comes from overflowing creeks and roadside drainage is contaminated and needs cleaning and disinfection as well as drying. Ceilings, insulation and wall cavities under a damaged roof stay wet long after the sky clears, so we check them with moisture meters.
How We Handle Losses in Leonardtown
Leonardtown and its surrounding postal towns, including Clements, Coltons Point, Valley Lee and Chaptico, sit in a county where tropical storms bring tornadoes, flooded roads and long power outages. A loss here can be wind damage to a roof, creek or roadway flooding, or a sump or dehumidifier that stops when the power goes out. We prepare for each: emergency tarping, extraction, structural drying and cleanup.
Mold usually follows water in Leonardtown homes. A basement or crawl space that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a humid summer can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Leonardtown usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after tornadoes, straight-line winds, falling trees, and wind-driven rain. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
