What to do after storm water gets in
Do now
- 1Make it safe. Stay clear of sagging ceilings and downed wires, and switch off power to any room with water.
- 2Find the entry point. Look for water at windows, doors, the roofline and the foundation edge so the source can be sealed.
- 3Protect belongings. Move furniture off wet floors and lift curtains away from soaked walls.
- 4Note the weather. Write down the date and the storm type, since the claim depends on the cause.
Hold off
- Do not climb onto a wet roof
- Do not touch downed wires or wet outlets
- Do not paint over damp walls
How the restoration crew handles storm water damage
Storm water may enter as roof leaks, covered under roof leak water damage, or as rising water, covered under flood water cleanup.
Around-the-clock response
The response team rolls out day and night, storm nights and holidays included, and treats active water as urgent.
IICRC S500 drying standard
The drying team pulls equipment only when meter readings say dry, not when a surface looks dry.
Claim-ready drying records
Moisture maps, daily psychrometric readings and timestamped photos go into one log for the adjuster and the owner.
Older South Shore construction
Fieldstone foundations, plaster walls, cast iron drains and finished basements are everyday work, so the crew checks below grade and behind the walls.

The storm water damage process, step by step
- 1
Trace the entry
The crew follows stains and meter readings back to the roofline, window, door or foundation where water came in.
- 2
Extract and protect
Pooled water is removed, and temporary protection keeps the next shower from reaching opened areas.
- 3
Dry what stayed wet
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry floors, wall bases and ceiling cavities that took wind driven rain.
- 4
Report the cause
Notes and photos tie the damage to the storm date, which helps the adjuster separate it from older leaks.
The dated storm record is short but clear. Heavy morning rain on July 10, 2025 caused flash flooding and closed roads in Randolph, and NOAA Storm Events listed damaging thunderstorm wind reports of an estimated 58 mph on August 14, 2025 that included the town.
How storms let water in
Heavy rain can pool at doors and foundations, wind can lift roof edges and flashing, and a short downpour can overwhelm a gutter. Each route leaves a different pattern, so the first job is finding the entry point.
Hail and wind in the record
Hail has been reported around Randolph on 24 days in the NOAA record, most often in June and August, and there have been 137 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with a strongest measured gust of 75 mph on July 7, 2021.
What the storm cleanup includes
- Extraction of pooled water at floors and wall bases
- Moisture mapping through ceilings and wall cavities
- Drying equipment, daily readings and claim photos
Roof driven leaks are covered in roof leak water damage. Wet insulation is replaced when it will not dry, and readings decide the rest.

Does storm water count as clean water?
Rain that comes through a roof starts as clean water, while ground level flood water is contaminated. The path the water took decides the cleanup.
Was there local storm damage in 2025?
Flash flooding on July 10, 2025 closed roads, and damaging thunderstorm wind reports on August 14, 2025 included Randolph, so storm water cleanup has a recent local record.
Does hail cause water damage?
Hail itself breaks roofing and windows, and rain follows through the openings. Hail has been reported around Randolph on 24 days, most often in June and August.
Who fixes the roof?
A roofer repairs the roof. The restoration team dries the rooms below and documents the water damage so both claims stay consistent.
Should water stains be painted over?
No. Paint hides a stain but not the moisture behind it, so the area should be metered and dried before any finish goes on.
What if the basement flooded too?
Lower levels follow the pumping and drying steps in basement water damage, often alongside the first floor work.
Storm water inside? Call for drying
A call starts dispatch for extraction and drying gear, and the team works through every room the storm water reached.
