Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Missoula, MT
From wind-driven rain to flash flooding, crews board up, extract, and dry the structure, then document everything for the claim. Storm and flood recovery starts with extraction and structural drying, then documenting the loss for an insurance or flood claim. Because floodwater carries soil and debris, affected porous materials are removed rather than dried, and the structure is re-checked as it dries.

Frequently asked questions
Seventeen inches of precipitation. Where does basement water come from?
Mostly from the mountains rather than the sky above the house. Snowpack at elevation releases over several weeks and raises the valley water table, so a basement can take water in a month with almost no local rainfall. Reading a rain gauge will not explain the timing.
What is an inversion and does it matter indoors?
Cold air settling into the valley and staying there under a warmer layer above. It matters because it removes the drying capacity a normal winter day would provide: air movement is minimal and humidity in the valley stays elevated, so anything damp stays damp for much longer than the temperature alone suggests.
Does lake-bed soil behave differently from ordinary valley fill?
Yes, because it is exceptionally fine. Silts and clays deposited in still water drain slowly and hold moisture well, so water reaching a foundation through them lingers. It also means test results from one part of the valley transfer poorly to another, since the deposits vary in thickness.
