Biddeford Storm Damage: Wind, Hail and Flood Water Inside the Home
A storm can tear off shingles, break windows and push rain or flood water into the house. NOAA logged 46 days with damaging wind reports and 4 days with hail reports in York County from 2016 to 2025. Restoration crews handle storm calls every week, and the work starts with getting the water out.
What the Restoration Team Does First for Storm Damage
- Extracts standing water and soaked carpet and pad.
- Dries walls, floors and framing with air movers and dehumidifiers, checked with moisture readings.
- Coordinates a board-up for broken windows and doors and a tarp over roof openings.
- Photographs and documents the damage for your insurance claim.
Quick note: stay clear of downed power lines and standing water near outlets.

Questions
Will my insurance cover water damage?
It depends on your policy. Sudden leaks like a burst pipe are often covered. Flooding from rising water usually needs separate flood insurance. Ask your insurer.
How much does water damage cleanup cost?
It depends on how much area is wet, the water type and the drying time. Each company sets its own prices. Ask for a written estimate.
How fast can someone arrive?
The company sets a time with you on the call, as soon as possible and same day when available. Active water is treated as an urgent job.
Can a restoration team help with storm damage?
Yes. Wind, hail and flood water inside the home are routine restoration jobs. The team extracts the water, dries the structure, arranges a board-up or a tarp over openings and photographs the damage for your claim. Flood coverage depends on your policy.
What does the restoration team do first?
They remove standing water, set up drying equipment, take moisture readings and photograph the damage for your claim. If a pipe burst, shutting the main water valve when you can reach it keeps the job smaller.
