Storm & Hail Damage Repair in Hinsdale

We answer calls and texts at (815) 585-1750 24/7, so reach out as soon as a storm damages your Hinsdale house. We repair the siding, trim and gutters, dry out water that came in, and rebuild ceilings and walls to match what was there.

Storm damage repair for Hinsdale houses

When a storm opens up the outside of a house, we fix the opening and then the damage behind it. That means siding, trim, soffit, fascia and gutters first, then extraction and drying wherever water got in, with moisture readings every day. The rebuild comes last: insulation, ceilings, walls, trim and paint, matched to what was there before.

We work throughout Hinsdale in DuPage County, from Ogden Avenue and York Road to County Line Road, I-294 and the streets around downtown and the Metra station. Where an older Hinsdale house still has plaster ceilings, storm water is handled differently than with drywall. Wet plaster can lose its grip on the lath, so we check how firmly it is still holding before deciding whether to repair it or cut it back to sound material and patch with drywall skim coated to match. Painted wood trim and siding get the same care outside: replaced board for board, primed and painted.

Our Hinsdale storm repair work

Plaster ceiling assessment

We check wet plaster for loose keys and sagging, then repair it or cut it back to sound material.

Patches finished to match

New drywall in a plaster ceiling is skim coated so the patch reads like the rest of the ceiling.

Wood trim and siding

Split or soaked boards are replaced board for board, primed and painted.

Gutters, soffit and fascia

Damaged gutters are replaced or rehung, and torn soffit and fascia are closed up.

Drying and monitoring

Water is extracted, the structure dried with air movers and dehumidifiers, and readings recorded every day.

Photos and estimate

You get copies of the photos, the readings and a line-by-line estimate written in the format insurance carriers use.

How a Hinsdale storm repair runs

We begin with a free on-site estimate in writing, one line per repair, plus the daily equipment rates if anything needs drying. Plaster and older framing can hide damage, so anything we find once the work is open is priced in writing and done only after you approve it. We can meet your adjuster at the house. The work is booked around the days we said and ends with a walkthrough of every room and wall.

FAQ

Storm & Hail Damage Repair in Hinsdale: questions

My ceiling is plaster. Can it be saved after the storm?
Sometimes. If the plaster is still holding to the lath once it dries, it can often be repaired. If it has let go, we cut it back to sound material and patch with drywall skim coated to match.
Do you work in the towns around Hinsdale?
Yes, in Clarendon Hills, Western Springs and Oak Brook. The number is the same: (815) 585-1750, call or text.
Does Hinsdale require a permit for storm repairs?
Some repairs need one and some do not. We confirm with the village for your address and pull any permit before that work starts.
How long does it take?
Drying usually takes several days and ends when the readings show dry. Plaster repair and finish work add time for coats to dry. We give you dates with the written scope.
Do you handle the roof?
No. A roofer fixes the roof. We fix the siding, trim, gutters, soffit and fascia, and everything inside the water touched.
