Storm damage help
Storm damage in Oklahoma City
Central Oklahoma sits in one of the most active severe-weather areas in the country. One spring hailstorm can crack shingles on every house in an Oklahoma City neighborhood, with leaks showing up later.
A hail leak that drips into the attic for a week can soak insulation and start mold on the drywall below. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours, so drying early protects more of your home.
In October 2020, an early ice storm brought down trees across the metro and left hundreds of thousands without power.
Homeowners, property managers, and business owners across Oklahoma, Cleveland, Canadian, Logan, Pottawatomie, and Grady counties call us after storms all year round.

Right after the storm
What to do after a storm in Oklahoma City
Once the storm has passed and everyone is safe, these steps protect your home and your insurance claim. If there are downed power lines or a tree on the house, stay back and call 911 or OG&E first.
Not sure what needs to happen first? Call and walk through it with our crew.
Call (405) 684-7143What to do
Photograph the damage
Take photos and video of the roof, the outside, every damaged room, and your belongings before anything is moved or cleaned up.
Stop more water if it’s safe
Move belongings away from leaks, put buckets under drips, and close off rooms where water is coming in. Leave the roof to a crew.
Call your insurer the same day
Open a claim and write down the claim number and your adjuster’s name.
Keep damaged items and receipts
Hold on to damaged items until your adjuster has seen them, and save receipts for tarps, emergency repairs, and hotel stays.
Check the house before going back in
After a tornado, look for gas smells, structural damage, and downed lines first.
What not to do
Don’t go near downed power lines
Treat every downed line as live, and stay away from water, fences, or trees touching one.
Don’t climb onto the roof
A wet, damaged roof is slippery and may not hold your weight. Tarping is a job for a crew with the right equipment.
Don’t walk or drive through floodwater
Water from outside can carry sewage and debris and hide electrical hazards. Six inches of moving water can knock you down, and a foot of it can carry a car.
Don’t sign with an unregistered roofer
Oklahoma requires roofing contractors to register with the Construction Industries Board.
Don’t walk under ice-loaded trees
After an ice storm, glazed limbs keep snapping for hours. Stay out from under the trees until they’re cleared.
Common storm damage
Types of storm damage we handle in Oklahoma City
Hail, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and ice storms shape the storm damage we see across central Oklahoma.
Hail
Large hail cracks shingles, dents vents and gutters, and breaks skylights and windows.
Tornadoes
Tornadoes can tear off roofs, break windows, and drive debris into walls, letting rain in behind them.
Straight-Line Winds
Damaging gusts from severe storms can lift shingles and topple trees across the metro.
Ice Storms
Freezing rain loads trees and lines until limbs snap onto roofs.
Flash Flooding
Heavy rain can flood streets and low areas, sending water into homes and garages.
Mold After a Storm
A slow hail leak can leave insulation and drywall moldy within days during humid Oklahoma summers.
How we help
How we handle storm damage
Our first job after an Oklahoma storm is closing the house: tarping hail and tornado damage and boarding broken windows before the next cell arrives.
We trace hidden water. Moisture meters find wet insulation and drywall that hail leaks soaked.
We remove what can’t dry. Soaked insulation, sagging ceilings, and debris-damaged drywall come out.
We dry, confirm, and rebuild. Every room’s readings must match a dry room before we rebuild ceilings, walls, and floors.

What can be saved
What can be dried and what gets replaced
What we save in an Oklahoma City home depends on the material, whether water fell or rose, and how soon drying begins. Treat this as a guide, and your inspection will confirm each item.
Tile, concrete, metal, and glass
Usually dried and keptThese clean well.
Brick veneer and slab
Usually dried and keptMasonry and slabs dry well.
Hardwood floors
Depends on water and timingSlow drying saves many floors.
Drywall
Depends on water and timingWhen hail opens the roof, the drywall ceiling right below usually sags and has to be replaced. Walls a room or two away often stay firm enough to dry.
Carpet
Depends on water and timingIf only roof drips reached the carpet and it was dried fast, it may survive. If street water reached it, it’s replaced.
Solid wood furniture
Depends on water and timingDressers and tables usually recover if they’re moved off wet floors quickly.
Electronics and appliances
Depends on water and timingHave them tested.
Photos and documents
Depends on water and timingDry them flat.
Carpet pad and insulation
Usually replacedBlown-in insulation soaked by a hail leak packs down and loses its value, so we pull it and replace it along with wet carpet pad.
Upholstered furniture after floodwater
Usually replacedContaminated water soaks the padding.
Food that floodwater touched
Usually replacedThrow it out.
How to spot a storm chaser
After big hailstorms and tornadoes, out-of-state roofers pour into the OKC metro. Be cautious with anyone who wants full payment up front.
Oklahoma requires roofing contractors to register with the Construction Industries Board, and you can check a registration online. Get written estimates and call your insurer first.
Complaints about a roofer can go to the Construction Industries Board or the Oklahoma Attorney General.
Help beyond the storm
Other restoration services we offer in Oklahoma City
Every job starts with a free inspection and estimate. Here’s how the 24 Hour Flood Pros team helps with each type of damage.
During long ice storm outages, space heaters and generators can start fires. Soot is acidic and keeps staining surfaces, so cleanup starts early. We remove soot, treat odor at the source, clean what can be saved, and rebuild what can’t.
More about Fire and Smoke Damage
Mold can take hold above an Oklahoma ceiling within days of a hail leak. We find the moisture source, contain the area, remove the mold, and dry the space out.
More about Mold Remediation
Hail and tornadoes can damage stores in Bricktown, offices downtown, and warehouses along I-40. We extract, dry, and clean on a plan built around reopening, and we document each step for your carrier.
More about Commercial Restoration
When you’re ready to rebuild, the same crew puts it back together, from drywall to cabinets to the final coat of paint, so there’s no second contractor to hire.

Our process
What happens after you call
- 1
You call, we send a crew
Call (405) 684-7143 any time, day or night, including weekends and holidays. Tell us what happened and where water is getting in. We’ll send a crew right away.
- 2
We stop more water from getting in
We tarp roof openings and board up broken windows and doors, so the next rain stays outside.
- 3
We arrive and inspect
The 24 Hour Flood Pros team checks how far the water spread, from the attic to the crawlspace. We use moisture meters to find water hiding inside walls and under floors. We take photos of all the damage for your insurance. The inspection is free.
- 4
We pump out the water
Standing water is pumped out and drying equipment goes in. Anywhere floodwater reached is cleaned and sanitized.
- 5
We remove what can’t be saved
Soaked insulation, sagging drywall, and carpet pad come out. Drywall that stayed firm stays up and dries in place, so we only replace what really needs it.
- 6
We compare with a dry room
We test the wet rooms with a moisture meter, then compare them with a dry room elsewhere in the house. When the wet rooms read close to the dry one, they’re dry.
- 7
We make the repairs
When you’re ready, the 24 Hour Flood Pros team fixes the damage. We replace drywall, install cabinets, and finish with fresh paint. Our goal is to make your home look the way it did before.
- 8
Final check with you
We walk through the finished work with you to make sure you’re happy with everything. Then we send the final records to your insurance company to close out the claim.
Hail leak showing up weeks later?

Insurance and claims
Storm damage and your insurance claim
Most homeowners policies cover sudden damage from wind, hail, and falling trees, including rain that gets in through a storm-damaged roof or window. Flooding from rising water is different. Standard homeowners policies typically don’t cover it, and flood insurance generally takes effect 30 days after you buy it.
Some policies have a separate deductible for wind and hail, so check yours before you start repairs.
Your policy decides what’s covered, not us. We work with all major insurance carriers, including State Farm, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, Farmers, American Family, Travelers, and Nationwide. We bill your insurance directly for damage your policy covers.
If a claim stalls, you can file a complaint with the Oklahoma Insurance Department.

Common questions
Oklahoma City storm damage FAQs
How fast can 24 Hour Flood Pros get to me?
A crew can be there within 45 minutes. We work 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. After a big storm, we stop active leaks first, then do the full inspection.
Does homeowners insurance cover hail damage in Oklahoma?
Most policies cover sudden damage from wind, hail, and falling trees, and the rain that gets in through that damage. Flooding from rising water usually needs a separate flood policy. Limits and deductibles vary, so check your policy or ask your agent.
Storm damage vs. flood damage: what's the difference?
Storm damage is what wind, hail, or a fallen tree does to your home, plus the rain that comes in through the openings. Flood damage comes from water that rises outside and covers land that is usually dry. The difference matters, because insurance treats them differently.
Should I tarp my roof myself?
We don’t recommend it. A wet, damaged roof is slippery and may not hold your weight. From the ground, move belongings away from leaks and put buckets under drips, then call us.
How can I tell if hail damaged my roof?
From the ground, look for dents in gutters, downspouts, and vents, missing or cracked shingles, and shingle granules collected at the bottom of downspouts. Inside, check for ceiling stains and wet insulation in the attic. Have a roofer inspect the roof itself.
How do I avoid storm chasers in Oklahoma City?
Be wary of anyone who knocks on your door right after a storm, asks for full payment up front, or offers to cover your deductible. Call your insurance company first, get more than one estimate, and check the roofer’s Construction Industries Board registration.
How long does storm damage restoration take?
Drying out a room or two usually takes a few days. Ceilings, walls, or floors that need rebuilding take longer, and a roofer may need to finish first. Your estimate includes a schedule.
How much does storm damage restoration cost in Oklahoma City?
It depends on how much water got in, how long it sat, what has to be removed, and how much needs rebuilding. The inspection and estimate are free, so you know the cost before any work starts. When insurance covers the damage, we send the itemized estimate straight to your adjuster.
Can I stay in my home during storm repairs?
Often, yes, in the rooms that weren’t damaged. If the roof is open, the power is off, or floodwater reached the living areas, it may make sense to stay somewhere else. We’ll tell you what we see after the inspection.
