Willoughby, BC
Storm Damage Restoration in Willoughby, BC
Willoughby storm damage is rain at a new deck, a window, or under a garage door. There is rarely a basement to flood. The kitchen ceiling or the garage is the wet spot.
Creek water under the garage door is overland rain. A toilet backup is not. We keep those words apart.
Decks and windows
Water runs inside a party wall from a deck ledger. We meter both townhouses and open the wet cavity. The paint on your side can look perfect.
Garage doors
Rain or creek water sheets under the door. Stored goods come up off the slab. The lid above is a separate leak if the roof also failed. We check it instead of assuming.
Roofs that are still new
New does not mean sealed. A valley or a vent wets the top-floor ceiling. We open that bay. We do not gut the garage for a top-floor stain.

Questions from this area
Storm Damage in Willoughby: common questions
The builder says to wait for warranty. The wall is wet now. What happens?
We dry the wall. Warranty can argue about the deck after the cavity is open and photographed.
Is garage creek water a flood claim?
Often the wording differs from a roof leak. We describe water under the door versus water through the roof.
Do detached houses in Willoughby have wells?
Some have a crawl, not a well. We look at the hatch if the main floor is wet and there is no garage pond.
