We’re Back to Dry Restoration, independently owned and operated under The Haven Standard since 2011. Alicia Brennan founded this company after working as a claims adjuster and watching homeowners lose thousands on restoration invoices that lacked the documentation insurers require. Since then, we’ve restored more than 12,000 homes, every one with a written price before work started, a photo record on every visit, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise backed by The Haven Standard. Our live phone coverage runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with no voicemail trees. When monsoon winds tear through Summerlin or flash flooding hits the valley floor, our Storm & Disaster Restoration - Las Vegas team responds immediately, we dispatch background-checked, uniformed technicians with license numbers verified before they arrive at your door.
Las Vegas presents specific storm risks that desert-dwelling homeowners often underestimate. The July-September monsoon season brings sudden microbursts that can peel back roofing in Paradise, dump an inch of rain in twenty minutes across Spring Valley, and send debris through windows in Enterprise. Winter cold fronts occasionally deliver enough rain to overwhelm drainage systems in older Winchester neighborhoods. And the Clark County dust storms that precede those fronts? They drive fine particulate into every seal and vent, creating secondary damage that shows up weeks later as corrosion or mold. We document all of it, photograph all of it, and produce the drying logs and written scopes that turn restoration invoices into payable claims.
What Our Storm & Disaster Restoration Service Includes
Storm Damage Cleanup
Storm damage cleanup is the systematic removal of water, debris, and compromised materials following any weather event that breaches your home’s envelope. In Las Vegas, we most often perform this service after monsoon microbursts have driven rain through compromised window seals in Aliante homes or after dust storms have coated interior surfaces with alkaline particulate that degrades finishes. Our crew arrives with moisture meters, HEPA-filtered vacuums, and containment systems to prevent cross-contamination. We document every affected square foot, classify materials by porosity (non-porous, semi-porous, or highly porous like drywall and insulation), and deliver a written scope with line-item pricing before any demolition or drying begins. Haven Standard, Clause 1: written price before work starts.

Flood Damage Restoration
Flood damage restoration addresses standing water and moisture migration through building materials after any inundation event, whether from storm surge, overwhelmed drainage, or roof failure. Las Vegas flood calls spike dramatically during September monsoon peaks, particularly in lower-lying areas where Storm & Disaster Restoration in North Las Vegas is often needed and near the Las Vegas Wash where drainage infrastructure predates current capacity standards. We extract standing water with truck-mounted and portable systems, then deploy professional-grade drying equipment from Dri-Eaz and Phoenix to establish psychrometric control, meaning we measure and manipulate temperature, relative humidity, and vapor pressure differential to force moisture out of structural materials at engineered rates. Daily moisture readings are logged and photographed, producing the documentation that adjusters require for claim payment.

Emergency Board-Up
Emergency board-up is the temporary securing of breached openings, walls, or roofs to prevent additional water intrusion, vandalism, or liability exposure until permanent repairs can be scoped and scheduled. We provide this service around the clock in Las Vegas because storm damage rarely respects business hours, and every minute of exposure expands the affected area. Our technicians carry pre-cut plywood, structural fasteners, and weatherproof membrane in every response vehicle. We photograph the pre-existing damage before covering it, install boards to code-compliant fastening patterns, and document the entire sequence for your adjuster. For homeowners in Centennial Hills and Summerlin South, our average board-up response time from call to arrival is under 75 minutes.

Roof Tarping
Roof tarping is the temporary weatherproofing of compromised roofing assemblies to stop active leaks and prevent secondary water damage to interior finishes and structural members. In Las Vegas, we tarp after wind uplift has torn shingles or tiles, after falling branches have punctured membrane roofs common on Paradise and Sunrise Manor homes, or after monsoon-driven hail has fractured tile. Our crew assesses the roof substrate from the interior first, identifying truss or decking saturation that might make walking the surface unsafe. We then install reinforced polyethylene tarps with perimeter fastening that withstands sustained winds to 60 mph, sealed with compatible tape at all laps. Every tarp installation is photographed, measured, and written into the scope with a clear timeline for permanent repair coordination.

Debris Removal
Debris removal is the controlled collection, segregation, and disposal of storm-generated waste including tree limbs, damaged building materials, contaminated personal property, and hazardous fragments. Las Vegas storms produce distinctive debris profiles: palm fronds that clog drainage, broken tile from Mediterranean-style roofs, and the fine gravel from built-up roofing systems that becomes abrasive particulate when tracked indoors. We segregate debris by waste stream (general construction, vegetative, hazardous, recyclable) to control disposal costs and comply with Clark County regulations. Our crew inventories damaged personal property for insurance documentation, photographing each item before removal. For large events affecting multiple homes in Enterprise or Storm & Disaster Restoration in Nellis AFB areas, we coordinate roll-off container placement and hauling schedules to prevent neighborhood pile accumulation.

Wind Damage Repair
Wind damage repair addresses structural and envelope damage caused by sustained or gust-front winds that exceed design pressures for installed materials. Las Vegas microbursts regularly produce wind speeds of 60-80 mph, sufficient to dislodge improperly installed tile, peel back membrane roofing at perimeter details, and drive projectiles through vinyl siding or stucco. We assess wind damage with structural engineers when load-path elements are compromised, document all damage with measurement and photography, and prepare written repair scopes that distinguish original construction defects from storm-caused failure, a distinction that frequently determines insurance coverage. Our repair work includes moisture verification of wall cavities using thermal imaging and pinless moisture meters before closing any assembly.

Brands We Service for Storm & Disaster Restoration

We’ve deployed Dri-Eaz dehumidification and air-moving equipment on hundreds of Las Vegas storm jobs since 2011, from the LMC series low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers that maintain 40-50 grains per pound in desert conditions, to the DefendAir HEPA 500 filtration units we use during debris-generating demolition. Dri-Eaz equipment produces the consistent psychrometric data that insurers recognize, and our technicians log that data to IICRC S500 standards on every drying job. We also maintain and deploy Phoenix 200 MAX dehumidifiers, which we’ve found particularly effective in the low-humidity, high-temperature conditions common to Las Vegas summer storms, where rapid evaporation can create misleading surface dryness while structural cavities remain saturated.
XPOWER air movers and B-Air grizzly air scrubbers round out our fleet for large-loss events and multi-unit responses. XPOWER’s variable-speed control lets us match airflow to material porosity without over-driving moisture into unaffected areas, a common error we see in competitor work. Whether your storm damage requires Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, XPOWER, B-Air, or any other professional-grade system, we specify, deploy, and document the equipment selection in your written scope with daily operating logs. If another contractor has already placed equipment, our Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate will review their specifications against IICRC standards at no charge.

AfterSigns You Need Storm & Disaster Restoration Right Now
- Active water intrusion during or immediately after a storm. Water entering through ceilings, walls, or window frames indicates a breached building envelope that will expand damage exponentially with every minute of exposure. In Las Vegas, even brief monsoon events can deposit enough water to saturate attic insulation and compromise ceiling drywall within hours. We classify this as a Category 1 emergency requiring immediate board-up or tarping, followed by extraction and drying.
- Visible roof damage or displaced roofing materials in your yard. Missing tiles, shingles, or membrane fragments signal that your roof’s weather barrier is compromised and the next rain event, even days later, will enter unimpeded. Post-storm roof inspections in Summerlin and Aliante frequently reveal damage that homeowners missed from ground level. We document with telephoto photography and drone assessment when safe access is limited.
- Sagging ceilings, bubbling paint, or drywall deformation. These symptoms indicate trapped moisture that has already degraded structural integrity and created conditions for secondary mold growth. In Las Vegas’s dry climate, homeowners sometimes dismiss minor deformation, but the vapor pressure differential between saturated cavities and arid exterior air actually accelerates hidden damage. Moisture meter readings above 16% in gypsum board confirm active drying need.
- Unexplained odors following a dust storm or wind event. Musty or earthy smells after storms often indicate moisture in wall cavities, crawl spaces, or HVAC ductwork where dust-laden air has deposited hygroscopic particles that attract and hold ambient humidity. We trace odor sources with thermal imaging and borescope inspection, then document findings photographically before proposing remediation.
- Compromised windows, doors, or garage doors from wind or impact. Broken glazing, damaged frames, or doors that no longer seal properly create immediate security and weather exposure risks. In Paradise and Winchester, we’ve responded to garage door failures where wind pressure buckled panels, leaving entire home contents accessible. Our emergency board-up includes security-grade fastening and weatherproofing for all opening types.
Our Storm & Disaster Restoration Process - Step by Step

- 1
Emergency Contact and Dispatch. When you call (702) 483-7932, a live person answers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We gather your location, describe the visible damage, and dispatch the nearest available crew with appropriate equipment. For Las Vegas addresses, average dispatch-to-arrival is 60-90 minutes. We confirm your insurance carrier if known, so our documentation format aligns with their requirements from the first photograph.
- 2
On-Site Assessment and Documentation. Upon arrival, our technicians perform a room-by-room damage survey using thermal imaging cameras, pin and pinless moisture meters, and hygrometers to establish baseline conditions. We photograph every affected area before touching anything, measure moisture content in all suspect materials, and classify water damage by category and class per IICRC S500 standards. This assessment typically takes 30-60 minutes for residential properties and produces the data for your written scope.
- 3
Written Scope and Price Delivery. Haven Standard, Clause 1 requires a written price before any work begins, with no exceptions. Your scope lists every proposed action line by line, equipment specifications, estimated duration, and total price. We review it with you in person or by video call, answer questions, and obtain your signed authorization before any demolition, extraction, or equipment placement. This is the documentation that prevents scope creep and protects your claim.
- 4
Emergency Mitigation and Stabilization. With authorization, we execute immediate protective measures: board-up, roof tarping, water extraction, debris removal, and initial equipment deployment. For flood damage, we establish containment barriers to prevent cross-contamination. For wind damage, we may install temporary bracing for structural elements. Every action is photographed, every moisture reading logged, and every equipment placement recorded with serial number and start time.
- 5
Structural Drying, Repair, and Final Documentation. We maintain drying equipment until moisture readings return to established dry standards for each material, typically 12% or below for wood framing in Las Vegas’s climate. Daily logs track temperature, relative humidity, and specific humidity at each dehumidifier location. Upon completion, we deliver a final photo record showing pre-condition, during-work, and post-restoration states, plus all moisture logs and a signed 365-Day Done Right Promise under The Haven Standard. If any issue arises within that year, we return and make it right.
How Much Does Storm & Disaster Restoration Cost in Las Vegas?
Storm and disaster restoration pricing in Las Vegas varies with damage severity, affected square footage, and required emergency stabilization, but most homeowners encounter these ranges:
| Service | Typical Range | Primary Cost Drivers |
|---|---|---|
| Emergency board-up (single opening) | $350-$750 | Opening size, height access, after-hours dispatch |
| Roof tarping (up to 500 sq ft) | $450-$950 | Roof pitch, wind conditions, membrane vs. shingle substrate |
| Debris removal (residential load) | $600-$1,800 | Volume, waste classification, distance to disposal facility |
| Water extraction and initial drying (per affected room) | $1,200-$2,800 | Water category, material porosity, equipment count and duration |
| Full flood damage restoration (single-family home) | $4,500-$8,500 | Extent of demolition, reconstruction scope, contents involvement |
| Wind damage repair (structural envelope) | $2,500-$7,000 | Engineering assessment need, material matching, permit requirements |
What drives price variation most significantly is water category and material classification. Category 1 clean water from a roof leak requires less protective equipment and disposal cost than Category 2 gray water or Category 3 black water from compromised drainage. Similarly, non-porous materials like tile and metal can often be restored in place, while highly porous materials like insulation, particle board subflooring, and untreated drywall typically require removal and replacement. Our written scope specifies every material classification and the justification for each decision, so you and your adjuster understand exactly what you’re paying for.
To avoid overpaying, request that any contractor provide a written scope with line-item pricing before work begins, specify equipment by manufacturer and model, and commit to daily moisture logs with target dry standards. Competitors who quote flat rates without these details often discover “unforeseen conditions” that inflate the final invoice. Our Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate lets you bring a competitor’s quote for review against IICRC standards at no charge. Every estimate we provide is free and carries no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Storm & Disaster Restoration in Las Vegas

Storm and disaster restoration is the professional recovery of a property’s structural integrity, weather protection, and habitability after damage from wind, water, debris impact, or related weather events. The process includes emergency stabilization, damage documentation, water extraction and structural drying, debris removal, and repair or reconstruction of affected building systems. At Back to Dry, every restoration job includes a written price before work begins, daily photo documentation, and moisture logs formatted for insurance adjuster review.
Most emergency stabilization work, board-up, and roof tarping is completed same-day. Structural drying typically requires 3-5 days for residential properties with Category 1 water damage, extending to 7-14 days for Category 2 or 3 events with significant demolition. Full reconstruction, including permit acquisition in Clark County, generally spans 2-8 weeks depending on material availability and scope complexity. We provide a written timeline with every scope and update it if conditions change. Call (702) 483-7932 for a timeline specific to your situation.
Typical residential storm restoration in Las Vegas ranges from $1,800 for limited board-up and drying to $8,500 for whole-home flood recovery with reconstruction. Emergency services like roof tarping and single-opening board-up start at $350-$750. Your specific cost depends on water category, affected square footage, material porosity, and whether structural repairs require engineering review. We deliver a written, line-item price before any work begins, and our Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate lets you verify competitor pricing at no charge.
