The Wabash River has a history of flooding. Severe thunderstorms come through in spring and summer, and the occasional tornado comes with them. If your insurance company asks for a storm date, NWS Indianapolis keeps a list of past events.

Expert Storm Damage for Pheasants Run Homeowners

Rain driven sideways against a window can leave almost nothing to see, only a damp line along the sill or a darker patch of carpet at the wall. Behind the trim, the water has already dropped into the cavity and started wicking into the drywall. Pheasants Run Water Restoration reads the walls under windows on storm calls in Pheasants Run and dries the cavity before the paint begins to bubble.

Winter storms bring their own kind of water damage, from ice dams at the eaves to water that froze in the roof deck and melts all at once. Pheasants Run Water Restoration reads the ceilings and walls under the eaves in your Pheasants Run home after a thaw and dries what's wet before the drywall softens. The readings go in your file each day.

Coordination is part of the work on storm losses. Pheasants Run Water Restoration keeps the temporary cover in place and inspected while the roofing repair gets scheduled, and the drying plan accounts for whatever weather falls in between. If a rain event gets past the tarp, the crew documents it, rereads the affected materials, and adjusts the equipment, so the log records what happened to the house while it was happening.

The moisture log is the backbone of a storm file. Pheasants Run Water Restoration records daily readings at marked locations on every Pheasants Run job, with the dry target from your own house beside them, so the drying days and the equipment count have numbers behind them. Photos and the itemized scope go into the same record, and you keep all of it.

Floodwater in your basement or garage calls for containment and protective gear, so it's worth a call before anyone wades in. Pheasants Run Water Restoration extracts the water in Pheasants Run and dries the structure afterward, with the soaked porous materials removed and photos at each stage. Call (765) 436-6771 to get a crew started.

Our Process

How Pheasants Run Water Restoration Handles Storm Damage

We follow these steps in order on every Pheasants Run job.

1

Emergency Stabilization

Tarp, shrink wrap or board up goes over the opening the storm made, photographed before and after. Stopping the ongoing intrusion is what lets the drying numbers hold. Details of the opening get passed to whoever's handling the permanent roof or siding repair.

2

Wall Cavity Inspection

Baseboards and window trim come off where readings run high, and small inspection holes show whether the cavity behind them holds water. Windows and doors that took wind driven rain usually leave the wall base wet first.

3

Contaminated Material Removal

Porous materials soaked by floodwater, such as carpet and the lower drywall, get cut out and bagged for disposal. Cut heights are photographed and recorded, so the scope and your file show what came out and why.

4

Drying Equipment Setup

Air movers go where the mapping shows wet surfaces, and dehumidifiers get sized to the volume of the space being dried. Closed doors and poly sheeting seal off the drying area so the equipment works on the wet rooms only.

5

Final Walkthrough

Once the clearance readings are documented, the equipment comes out and the technician walks the rooms with you. The removed materials and the photo file get reviewed together so you know what repairs come next.

Common Questions

Storm Damage FAQ

Questions Pheasants Run homeowners ask us about storm damage restoration.

The technician starts with a walk through with you: where the water showed up and which rooms it touched. Then the crew photographs the wet areas and takes baseline readings in dry rooms, and the moisture gets mapped with a thermal camera and meters. Extraction and drying equipment goes in after that mapping, so every machine sits where it's needed in your Pheasants Run home.
Compare what's behind each line, because two quotes that look alike can describe different amounts of work. Ask how many days of equipment are planned and what readings set that number. Ask what gets removed and whether the quote shows the moisture reading behind each removal. A scope tied to photos and meter readings is the easiest kind to compare, and that's how Pheasants Run Water Restoration writes it for your Pheasants Run home.
Mostly access to the house and a little time to walk through the findings. You open the claim with your insurance company, and you talk with them about it. Pheasants Run Water Restoration puts the damage on record in a photo report and goes through it with you, and you take it from there with your insurance company. The report covers the opening, every wet area, the daily readings, the itemized scope and the final readings.
Ask the company directly. It should be able to tell you what training its technicians have completed and whether they follow the IICRC S500 on water jobs. Ask to see moisture readings and photos from a past job with the customer's details removed, and ask who will actually be working in your Pheasants Run home. A reliable company explains its method and documents it.
Yes. Cold air holds little moisture and slows evaporation, so winter jobs usually need added heat in the drying area. Humid summer air limits how much water the air can absorb, which makes the dehumidifiers carry more of the job. After a stormy week in Pheasants Run, outdoor humidity is often the reason a wall dries more slowly than the day before, and the daily air readings show it.
Yes. Rain can start out clean, but water that soaks through attic insulation or dirty carpet picks up whatever those materials hold, and water that sits for days can move into a worse category. The IICRC S500 treats time and contact as part of the category call. Pheasants Run Water Restoration checks the source and what the water traveled through on each Pheasants Run job, then rechecks as the job runs.
Fiberglass batt and blown in cellulose both hold water against the materials around them, and both lose much of their insulating value when soaked, so removal is the usual call on a storm loss. Blown in cellulose mats down and stays compressed. Batt insulation holds water at the paper facing and won't let the ceiling board underneath dry out. Taking it out also lets the crew see and dry the sheathing and framing, which is where the real structural concern sits. Pheasants Run Water Restoration bags it out, records depth and square footage, and replaces it after clearance.
Stay on the stairs and call first, because standing water near outlets or the furnace can carry current and floodwater hides steps and debris. If the water is above the outlets, stay upstairs. Pheasants Run Water Restoration can tell you what to check from the stairs in your Pheasants Run home, and the crew assesses the electrical hazards before anyone wades in.
Numbers off a meter, compared against unaffected material in the same house. A technician records baseline readings in rooms the water never reached on the first visit, then reads the affected materials at the same marked spots every day after that. Drying's finished when the affected readings match the baseline, which is a different number in every house depending on materials and season. Ambient conditions get logged as well, since temperature and humidity inside containment determine how fast the materials can give up water at all.
Materials that can't reach dry readings come out, and everything else stays and gets dried in place. That usually means saturated insulation and sagging drywall, plus porous materials soaked by contaminated water, while solid framing and concrete stay. The crew shows you the readings behind each removal in your Pheasants Run home and records what came out, so the list becomes the starting point for repairs.
