Charleston'S STORM DAMAGE SPECIALISTS
Why Charleston Storm Damage Is Different
Charleston's location in South Carolina Lowcountry creates a unique storm environment. Cold air masses collide with warmer South Carolina Lowcountry air to produce severe weather — hurricanes and tropical systems with minimal warning, windstorms that down live oaks, palmettos, and Spanish-moss-laden hardwoods, and intense rainfall events that dump inches in minutes.
Tropical-system rainfall can sit over South Carolina Lowcountry for days, saturating soils and overwhelming drainage well after the storm has passed. Heavy rainfall saturates soil, overflows drainage channels, and tests foundations that may have developed cracks during winter freeze-thaw cycles.
Right-Now Restoration responds to all storm types with the same 45-minute dispatch commitment — emergency tarping, board-up, water extraction, and full damage documentation to support your insurance claim from the first call.

TYPES OF STORM DAMAGE WE RESTORE
Every Type of Storm Damage, Handled in Charleston
Hail Damage
Charleston's severe thunderstorms routinely produce large hail that destroys roofing, siding, and skylights. Hail damage allows water infiltration that can go undetected for months, causing hidden mold growth and structural decay. We document, tarp, and restore hail-damaged roofs and facades.
Wind & Tree Damage
High-wind events regularly topple live oaks, palmettos, and Spanish-moss-laden hardwoods onto homes across South Carolina Lowcountry. We provide emergency tree removal, tarping, and structural assessment, followed by complete roof, wall, and structural rebuilding.
Roof Damage & Leaks
Storm-damaged roofing lets water infiltrate between sheathing layers, into insulation, and through ceiling finishes. Even minor roof damage creates conditions for significant interior water damage within one or two rain cycles. Emergency tarping prevents further damage while permanent repairs are scheduled.
Flash Flood Damage
Charleston's most intense storms can produce several inches of rain in under an hour, overwhelming storm drains and sending water into basements, window wells, and ground-floor living spaces. We extract, dry, and restore flash flood damage completely.
Winter Rain Flooding
As regional snowpack melts, sustained soil saturation creates hydrostatic pressure against foundations across South Carolina Lowcountry. Basements that weathered winter fine may still flood in April when hurricane runoff peaks. We provide extraction, structural drying, and waterproofing consultation.
Structural & Foundation Damage
Severe storms can cause structural damage beyond what's visible — roof trusses shifted by wind loads, foundation walls stressed by sudden hydrostatic pressure, and load-bearing walls compromised by falling trees. Our team conducts structural assessments and coordinates with licensed engineers when needed.

Storm Damage Restoration — Charleston FAQ
What types of storm damage does Right-Now Restoration handle in Charleston?
We handle all types of storm damage including hail damage to roofing and siding, fallen tree damage, roof leaks, flash flood water intrusion, winter rain basement flooding, and wind damage to windows and exterior structures.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage in South Carolina?
Most standard homeowners insurance policies cover storm damage from wind, hail, and falling trees. Flash flood damage typically requires separate flood insurance. We thoroughly document all damage to support your claim regardless of coverage type.

We respond 24/7 and are typically on-site within 45 minutes. After major storm events, we prioritize emergency tarping and board-up first to prevent additional water intrusion, then proceed with full assessment and restoration.
What should I do immediately after storm damage to my home?
Ensure everyone is safe and don't enter areas with visible structural compromise. Document damage with photos, call your insurance company, then call Right-Now Restoration at (843) 604-1371 for emergency tarping and assessment.
Is flash flood damage from a summer storm covered by insurance?
Flash flood damage from ground-level water typically requires separate flood insurance. However, water entering through storm-damaged roofing or windows may be covered under standard policies. We can help you understand the distinction.
