What to do right now
Storm damage often hides behind walls and under roofing. These three steps keep your family safe and protect your insurance claim while you wait for a licensed crew.
- 1
Check for immediate safety hazards
Look for downed power lines, leaning trees, or exposed electrical — stay clear and call 911 if needed. Do not climb on a damaged roof.
- 2
Stop water from spreading inside
Place buckets under active leaks, move furniture away from wet areas, and do not use ceiling fixtures that got wet. Mold can start within 24–48 hours.
- 3
Document damage and call for help
Photograph roof, windows, siding, and any interior water stains. Note the storm date. Then request a vetted San Diego storm repair pro — we can often respond in under an hour.
