A named storm drove rain in around our skylights and it ran down two walls before we caught it. They tarped, extracted, and had the whole area drying that night. The claim paperwork was ready before the adjuster even called.

Storm & Hurricane Water Damage customers in Altamonte Springs
After a bad afternoon storm our back rooms had water coming through the ceiling. The crew showed up fast, found where it was getting in, and dried it to a reading they walked me through. No musty smell afterward at all.

What to do during a storm leak
Take these steps while our crew is on the way. When in doubt, stay safe and call.
- 1Move people and pets away from any ceiling that is sagging or dripping, and stay clear of outlets and switches near the water.
- 2If you can reach the breaker safely, cut power to the flooded rooms. Never wade through standing water to reach a panel.
- 3Put buckets under active drips, move what you can off the wet floor, and photograph everything for your insurance claim.
- 4Call us. If it is safe, a tarp thrown over the roof breach buys time until our crew arrives to extract and dry.

Storm and hurricane water damage is Central Florida's signature loss. A tropical system does not need to flood the street to soak your home. Wind-driven rain is forced up under low-slope roofs, around skylights, and through worn window and door frames, and a day of heavy rain finds every weak point. By the time the sky clears, water has already run into the attic, down the drywall, and across the floor. Our restoration crews respond around the clock through the whole season, tarp the breach, pull the water, and dry the structure before it turns into a bigger problem.
Why storms flood Altamonte Springs homes
Seminole County sits inland, so most storm losses here are wind-driven rain and days of runoff, not coastal surge. The usual paths water takes:
- Low-slope and aging roofs that let rain under the shingles and flashing into the attic
- Skylights, vents, and worn window frames that leak once the wind drives rain sideways
- A high water table and heavy rain that back up through yard drains and against the slab
- Nearby lakes and retention ponds that rise fast and push water toward low-lying lots
Because the water usually comes from above, a storm leak often shows up first as a ceiling leak or a stain spreading along a wall. Caught early, most of it dries and saves.
Our storm and hurricane response
Every hour of trapped water is more damage, so Seminole Water Restoration works fast and in order:
- Tarp the roof or seal the entry point to stop more water coming in
- Extract standing water from floors, and from the ceiling below if it spread down
- Open and dry the attic, wall cavities, and framing the water reached
- Run air movers and dehumidifiers to a verified dry reading in the humidity
- Document the loss with photos and readings and bill your carrier directly
Fast water extraction followed by monitored structural drying is what keeps a storm leak from becoming a full rebuild and a mold problem.

The best time to deal with a storm leak is before the storm. A quick pre-season check keeps a small breach from becoming a soaked home.
- Have an older or low-slope roof inspected and the flashing resealed before June
- Clear gutters and yard drains so heavy rain runs off instead of backing up
- Know where your main water shut-off is in case a supply line fails in the chaos
The Ready.gov hurricane guide has a simple home checklist, and FEMA flood maps show whether your street sits in a flood zone.
Take photos before the storm season starts
A few phone photos of each room now make a storm claim far easier later. If water does get in, you can show an adjuster exactly what changed, and our documentation picks up from there.
A tropical storm parked over us for a day and water came in through the roof into two bedrooms. I called at night and someone actually answered. They tarped the roof, pulled the water, and dried everything so well the ceilings looked untouched a week later. They handled the insurance side too.

FAQ
Storm & Hurricane Water Damage questions, answered
Water in your home right now?
Do not wait for the FAQ. A Seminole County crew is standing by 24/7.
(407) 307-2934 Call nowTap to reach 24/7 dispatchShould I call before the storm passes or wait?
Call as soon as it is safe to move around inside. Storm water spreads through drywall and insulation by the hour, so the sooner we tarp and start extracting, the less damage and the lower the cost. We answer 24/7 straight through a storm.
Is storm and hurricane water damage covered by insurance?
Wind-driven rain and roof damage from a storm are usually covered under a Florida homeowners policy, though flood water that rises from the ground often needs separate flood coverage. We document the cause and the drying and bill your carrier directly.
Can you tarp my roof if I do not have a roofer yet?
Yes. We place an emergency tarp to stop more water coming in, then extract and dry the inside. Your roofer makes the permanent repair once the structure is dry, and we coordinate the timing so it moves together.
How fast can you reach me after a storm?
We dispatch across Altamonte Springs and Seminole County and reach most homes in 40 to 70 minutes, storms permitting. During a major event we work through a queue by severity, so call early and tell us how much water is coming in.
Will the water cause mold if it is not dried fast?
It can. Central Florida humidity lets mold start within a day or two on wet drywall and framing, which is why we dry to a verified reading rather than letting it sit. Fast extraction and monitored drying are the best prevention.
Do you handle the whole job or just the water?
We handle the water damage, the extraction and the drying, and document the loss for your claim. We coordinate with your roofer and, where needed, a rebuild crew, so the mitigation and repairs move on one timeline.
