Call and dispatch

Moisture readings are logged daily until the structure is dry, then the loss is documented with the photos and readings an adjuster needs.
South-Fulton storms drive rain sideways, and that is when a roof that is fine in a normal shower starts to leak. Wind lifts shingles, pushes water past flashing, and forces it into the attic, where it runs along framing and shows up in ceilings and walls far from where it got in.
How storm rain gets into a Palmetto home
A wind-driven storm finds every weak point in a roof, and the water rarely appears where it entered.
- Wind lifts or tears shingles and drives rain under them
- Water gets past flashing around vents, valleys, and chimneys
- It pools in the attic and runs along framing before it drips
- Ceilings and walls stain far from the actual entry point
After a storm, severe weather guidance recommends checking for water intrusion right away.
How local crews handle a roof or storm leak
Crews stop more water from getting in, then dry everything the intrusion reached.
- Tarp or cover the intrusion to stop more water coming in
- Extract standing water from the attic and affected rooms
- Dry the attic framing, insulation, ceilings, and walls
- Coordinate a roofer for the permanent repair

Call (404) 585-8987Drying the attic and the rooms below
Attic and ceiling drying takes the right equipment because the space is enclosed and holds heat and moisture.
- Air movers and dehumidifiers dry framing and cavities to a reading
- For the stained ceiling below, see ceiling leak damage
- Document the storm loss with photos and readings for your claim
Watch storm timing with the National Weather Service in Peachtree City so you can check the attic after a big one.
Check the attic after a wind-driven storm
Water in the attic can run for days before it shows in a ceiling. After a big storm, a quick look in the attic can catch a roof leak early, before it soaks the insulation and framing.
