Storm damage repair involves addressing the damage left by a storm and determining which repair, cleanup and restoration services the property needs. The scope may include emergency board-up, water extraction, flood cleanup, structural drying, water damage restoration and contents cleaning and restoration. These are different services—not a checklist that every property necessarily needs.
SOS Restoration offers storm damage repair and each of those related services. The exact repair scope, price and completion time for an individual property are not provided here and need to be discussed directly with the company.
The most useful starting point is to separate your concerns into clear categories: the building, water and cleanup needs, affected belongings, and any commercial property damage.
Which services should you ask about after storm damage?
“Storm damage repair” is a broad service name. For a useful conversation, describe what you have observed rather than trying to diagnose the entire problem yourself. Then ask which services apply.
SOS Restoration’s confirmed services include:
Storm damage repair:
Ask what repair work would be included for your property and what would fall outside the proposed scope.
Emergency board-up:
Ask whether board-up is relevant to the damage you are reporting.
Water extraction:
Ask about this service if standing water is part of your concern.
Flood cleanup:
Ask how cleanup would be addressed if flooding affected the property.
Structural drying:
Ask whether the building itself requires drying work.
Water damage restoration:
Ask how water-related damage would be addressed alongside the storm repair work.
Contents cleaning and restoration:
Ask about affected belongings separately from the building.
Commercial damage restoration:
Identify the property as commercial when discussing its needs.
The company also offers mold remediation, sewage cleanup and disaster cleanup. Those services should not be assumed necessary simply because a storm occurred. If you have a related concern, raise it explicitly and ask whether it belongs in the scope.
How do water extraction, drying and restoration fit together?
A helpful way to discuss water-related work is to distinguish between removing water, drying the structure and addressing damage. SOS Restoration lists water extraction, structural drying and water damage restoration as separate services.
Rather than requesting “water cleanup” and assuming that phrase covers everything, ask:
- Which water-related services are being proposed?
- Is structural drying included in the scope?
- What restoration work is included beyond extraction and drying?
- Are affected belongings included, or are they being discussed separately?
These questions help you compare the work being discussed with the problems you want addressed. The confirmed business information does not specify equipment, drying methods, testing procedures or a standard sequence of work, so this guide does not promise any particular approach.
Does storm damage repair include emergency board-up?
SOS Restoration offers emergency board-up as well as storm damage repair. However, the availability of both services does not establish that board-up is included in every storm repair job.
If an opening or damaged part of the building is one of your concerns, describe it during the initial conversation. Ask whether emergency board-up is appropriate and how it relates to the repair work being discussed.
Keep the scope question specific: “Does the proposed work include board-up, repair work, or both?” That is more useful than assuming the service name covers every stage.
What about damaged belongings or a commercial property?
The building and its contents deserve separate questions. SOS Restoration offers contents cleaning and restoration, but the confirmed information does not identify which individual items can be treated or what results can be expected.
Make a list of the belongings you want to discuss. Ask which items can be considered for cleaning or restoration, what that work would involve, and whether it is part of the proposed scope. Do not treat the availability of contents restoration as a promise that every item can be restored.
SOS Restoration also offers commercial damage restoration. If you are calling about a commercial property, explain that at the outset and describe the affected spaces. Scheduling arrangements and effects on business operations are not specified in the confirmed information and should be discussed directly.
What information should you have ready when you call?
You do not need to choose every service before contacting the company. Focus on communicating what you already know.
Useful details to prepare include:
The property location:
Give the address where service is needed.
Your observations:
Describe the damage you have noticed, without presenting guesses as confirmed findings.
Water concerns:
Explain whether standing water, flooding or water-affected areas are part of the issue.
Building and contents concerns:
Distinguish damage to the structure from concerns about belongings.
Your scope questions:
Write down what you want clarified about repair, cleanup, drying and board-up.
Use information already available to you; do not enter an affected area solely to complete this list.
A straightforward opening is: “I’m calling about storm damage at my property. Here is what I have observed. Which of your services may apply, and what information do you need to discuss the scope?”
How much does storm damage repair cost, and how long does it take?
No storm damage repair prices or project timelines are included in SOS Restoration’s confirmed business information. A specific estimate or completion date cannot be supplied from the available facts.
When discussing the work, ask what the price covers, which tasks are included, and what remains undecided. Request a clear distinction between the proposed services and any additional work still under consideration.
SOS Restoration is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Those operating hours do not establish a particular arrival time or completion deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is flood cleanup the same as storm damage repair?
SOS Restoration lists flood cleanup and storm damage repair separately. Ask which service—or combination of services—fits the damage you are reporting rather than treating the terms as interchangeable.
Does SOS Restoration offer mold remediation?
Yes. Mold remediation is a confirmed service. Whether it is relevant to your property is not established by the service listing alone.
Can I contact SOS Restoration outside regular business hours?
Yes. SOS Restoration is open 24 hours a day, every day of the week. Call 888-817-1650 to discuss your needs; no specific response time is confirmed.
Is every repair included under storm damage repair?
The confirmed information names storm damage repair but does not define every repair task it covers. Ask for the specific work included in your proposed scope before assuming a particular repair is available or included.
