Storm Damage Restoration in Navarre, FL

Storm damage in Navarre

Navarre sits between the Gulf of Mexico and Santa Rosa Sound, with the Navarre Beach bridge linking the island to the mainland and US-98 running through the Holley-Navarre area. That position means a storm can come at a home from two directions. Hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, and a tropical storm that never makes landfall nearby can still bring wind and fallen trees.

The damage we see after storms falls into a few repeating patterns. Shingles or flashing lift. A limb or a whole tree comes down on the roof. A window or sliding door breaks. Siding or fascia tears loose. Each of these needs a different first move, and the order matters.

What we do in the first hours after a storm

When you call (850) 226-0832, we ask what is open to the weather, whether anyone is hurt, and whether the power is on. If there is an electrical hazard or the structure looks unsafe, we tell you to stay out and who to call. Otherwise we send a crew and a time. On site, the sequence is the same on almost every storm job.

• ✓Photograph the damage before anything is covered or moved
• ✓Cover the opening in the roof or wall so more rain stays out
• ✓Board up broken windows and doors so the property is secure
• ✓Secure loose materials, siding, and debris that are a hazard
• ✓Give you photos and a written scope of what we secured and why

Emergency roof tarping in Navarre

A roof tarp is temporary protection. We lay a heavy tarp well past the edges of the damage and fasten it with battens so it holds in wind. It keeps rain out of the attic and ceilings until a licensed roofer can make the permanent repair. We do not repair roofs; we stop the opening from getting worse. The same visit often includes boarding up a broken window or door.

Tarping speed matters because roof openings do not stay small. Each rain makes the next repair bigger. For the full process, see our emergency roof tarping page.

Board-up and wind-driven rain entry points

We board up broken windows, doors, and sliding glass with panels fastened to the framing, so the property is secure until a glass or door contractor replaces them. Wind-driven rain is the least obvious storm loss: it can come in through a window frame, a sliding door track, or a garage door seal on a home that looks fine from the street. We look for the entry points and cover or seal them temporarily.

Documentation for your insurance

We document the damage with photos, a written scope of what we secured and why, and a written scope, and we work with your adjuster. Your policy decides what is covered, and you keep control of your claim.
