24/7 Emergency
Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Lubbock, TX
The opening is closed, the water is extracted, materials floodwater touched come out, and the structure is dried and rebuilt in that order. The opening is closed first, with tarps or board-up, so the building stops taking on water. Floodwater is extracted, and the porous materials it touched come out rather than dry, since it crossed ground outside. The structure is dried and re-read, and the rebuild waits until the readings and the roof both allow it.

Often needed alongside
- Emergency Water Extraction
Standing water is pumped and extracted around the clock, before it climbs the walls and soaks the subfloor. Same-day response where coverage allows.
- Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material.
- Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup
Sewage and black-water losses are contained, the materials the water touched are removed and disposed of, hard surfaces are disinfected, and the space is dried to a reading.
Frequently asked questions
What do the turbines on the roof actually do?
They pull air out of the attic, and here they do it constantly. A turbine turns whenever the wind blows, and on the High Plains that is most of the time, so the attic is held below the pressure of the house beneath it rather than simply being ventilated.
Why does a depressurized attic matter?
Because it draws from the house. A lower pressure above means air is pulled up out of the living space through every gap in the ceiling, and that air carries moisture with it into a cold roof space. The result is a damp attic with no leak anywhere.
Is more ventilation the answer?
It is usually the opposite. Adding ventilation increases the draw, so the sensible move is sealing the ceiling plane so the attic stops pulling from the house, and then letting the turbines vent the roof space rather than the rooms. That is the order it is done in.
