Storm water doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. If a winter rainstorm just pushed water through your roof or foundation, call (949) 669-7346 now — we answer 24/7 and can be on-site fast across Long Beach. Jackson Restoration handles the full job: emergency water extraction, structural drying, roof tarping, mold remediation, and full reconstruction back to pre-loss condition. We’re IICRC certified, we document everything for your insurer, and we bill your carrier directly so you’re not fronting the cost.
Long Beach storms rarely stay outside. Heavy winter rain events, coastal wind-driven rain, and older drainage systems are a bad combination — and it shows up the same way every year. Flat roofs pond water until it finds a seam. Storm drains overwhelm and back up into low-lying streets. Saturated soil pushes water sideways into garages, crawl spaces, and living rooms.
Neighborhoods closer to the coast take the worst of it. Homes near Naples Island and the low-lying blocks along the water deal with tidal flooding on top of rainfall, and the wind that comes with a Pacific storm rips shingles, drops branches, and forces rain under flashing that was fine in dry weather. We’ve pumped out flooded ground floors, dried crawl spaces that sat under two inches of standing water, and tarped roofs at 6 a.m. so the next band of rain didn’t finish the job. Left alone, that moisture turns into mold inside 24 to 48 hours. Speed is the whole game.
Whether it’s a residential water loss or larger commercial storm damage at a storefront off Pine Avenue, the mitigation steps are the same: stop the intrusion, extract the water, dry the structure to a measurable target, and rebuild. We cover residential, multi-unit, and commercial storm damage across the city. If you’re dealing with rising water inside the home, our water damage restoration crew works hand-in-hand with the storm team.
First call to first truck is usually under 60 minutes inside Long Beach. When we roll up, the priority is stopping more water from getting in. That means roof tarping over failed sections, board-up services for broken windows or storm-blown doors, and property stabilization so the building is safe to work in. We handle tree damage cleanup when a limb has come through the roof or blocked access. For wind damage, we secure the envelope first — no point drying a room that’s still open to the sky.
Next we pull the water out. Truck-mounted extractors handle standing water fast — hundreds of gallons an hour — and then we get into the detail work. Moisture mapping with meters and thermal imaging tells us exactly how far the water traveled behind walls, under flooring, and into the subfloor. Long Beach has a lot of older lath-and-plaster homes where water wicks up inside the wall cavity and never shows on the surface. If we skipped water extraction on the hidden moisture, you’d be calling us back for mold in a month.
Once the bulk water is gone, we set the drying equipment. Air movers push air across wet materials while commercial dehumidification pulls the moisture out of the air — we place the count based on square footage and the class of water, per IICRC S500 standards, not by eye. A typical single-room dry-out runs 3 to 5 days. Crawl space drying under a coastal home can take longer because the ground stays damp. We monitor daily with meters and don’t pull equipment until the structure hits its dry standard. One Long Beach homeowner told us we “immediately set up dryers and dehumidifiers” and stayed “thoughtful, courteous, reliable and extremely knowledgeable” through the whole demolition — that’s the standard on every job.
If the storm brought in Category 3 water — sewage backup or salt water contamination from tidal flooding — we handle sewage cleanup with antimicrobial treatment and dispose of unsalvageable materials safely. Where mold has already started, mold remediation happens under containment with negative air pressure and HEPA filtration so spores don’t spread. Then we rebuild. Reconstruction is where a lot of restoration companies hand you off; we do it in-house. Drywall, flooring, paint, trim — full reconstruction back to how it looked before the storm, matched as close as we can get.
Our 24/7 emergency response isn’t a voicemail box. Storms hit at 2 a.m. and that’s exactly when water is finding its way in. We answer live, dispatch immediately, and get a truck moving so we can tarp, board up, and start water extraction before secondary damage sets in. In this coastal climate, the difference between a 1-hour and a 6-hour response is often the difference between drying a room and gutting it.
We’re IICRC certified, which means our drying targets, our containment, and our mold work follow the same industry standards adjusters expect to see. That matters when the job involves rainstorm damage plus mold plus reconstruction — three specialties that have to line up. We know moisture mapping, structural drying to a measurable standard, and post-remediation clearance testing so you get proof the work is done, not just a promise.
You don’t manage subcontractors and you don’t chase your adjuster — we do. We build your insurance claim documentation with photos, moisture logs, and a line-item scope, and we offer direct insurance billing so you’re not out of pocket while the claim processes. One customer put it plainly: Henry “explained everything clearly and provided an estimate and scope of work for free.” That free, detailed scope is what a good claim is built on. See how we handle insurance work.
Founded in 2020, we’ve earned 40+ five-star Google reviews and 60+ five-star Yelp reviews from homeowners across Long Beach and Orange County. We’re not a franchise routing your call to a call center three states away. We know which neighborhoods flood, which roofs pond, and how coastal storms behave here. After a water leak turned into mold in one customer’s apartment, the final testing “showed the unit was completely mold-free” — that relief is the outcome we’re chasing every time.
Real experiences from property owners who trusted Jackson Restoration with major water damage, emergency drying, insurance claims, and restoration.
A family member recommended Jackson Restoration after having a positive experience with them for water damage. We had extensive damage from a pipe burst that became a two-month repair project. Their pricing was fair and transparent, the tradespeople were highly skilled, and the communication was professional throughout the entire process.
I recently had water damage at my property and was referred to use Jackson Restoration. They were extremely helpful dealing with my insurance company and kept me included in all communication. Their pricing was fair and they were extremely easy to work with.
I discovered a leaking water line behind our fridge on Christmas Eve and Henry came out right away. The team started remediation almost immediately and handled the insurance claim from start to finish. They got our home dry and ready for rebuild efficiently, even amid the holidays and between rain storms.
Coastal storms bring problems inland homes never see. Salt water contamination from tidal flooding is corrosive and can’t be treated like clean rainwater — it needs thorough flushing, antimicrobial treatment, and often more aggressive material removal. Wind damage tears the roof open and lets days of rain in before anyone notices. And the persistent damp of a coastal climate means crawl spaces and lower floors dry slower, so we adjust equipment counts and timelines accordingly.
When flood damage soaks contents — furniture, documents, electronics — we don’t just toss everything. Contents restoration and pack-out service let us move salvageable items off-site, clean and dry them, and store them while reconstruction happens. For lingering musty odors after a storm, we use odor removal methods including ozone generator treatment and thermal fogging to neutralize the smell at the source rather than mask it. In crawl spaces prone to ongoing moisture, we’ll install or repair a vapor barrier so the problem doesn’t come back next winter. Commercial storm damage gets the same playbook, scaled up — we’ve dried whole retail floors and kept businesses open during reconstruction. For a flooded ground level or garage, our basement and flood cleanup service covers extraction through rebuild.
We work the whole Long Beach map — from the coastal blocks around Naples Island and the Peninsula to Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the low-lying areas near the LA River that flood first when storm drains back up. Our response radius covers Signal Hill, Lakewood, Seal Beach, and Huntington Beach, plus greater Orange County and Los Angeles County. That local footprint is why we can promise fast arrival: our crews are already in the area, not driving in from an hour out.
Storm season here runs on Pacific weather patterns, and we plan for it. When a burst pipe compounds a storm loss, our burst pipe repair team is on it, and for offices, warehouses, and storefronts we run commercial water mitigation that keeps downtime short. Wherever you are between Seal Beach and the Orange County line, one call gets the right crew moving.
Most residential storm damage restoration in Long Beach runs between $2,500 and $12,000 depending on the extent of water intrusion, materials affected, and drying time required. Larger losses with structural drying and partial rebuild can exceed that range. Your insurance policy typically covers a significant portion — we document everything to support your claim.
Standard homeowners insurance generally covers sudden storm-related water intrusion — roof damage, wind-driven rain, and broken windows — but not rising groundwater or street flooding, which requires separate flood insurance. We work directly with your adjuster and document the loss accurately so you get the full coverage your policy allows.
Water extraction and emergency stabilization happen on day one. Structural drying typically takes three to five days in Long Beach’s coastal climate. Full rebuild — replacing drywall, flooring, and finishes — usually runs one to three weeks depending on scope. We give you a realistic timeline upfront, not a best-case estimate.
We operate 24/7 and typically arrive within a few hours of your call anywhere in Long Beach. We’re locally based and serve the greater Long Beach and Orange County area, so we’re not dispatching from far away. Call (949) 669-7346 any time and we’ll get someone moving toward your property.
Consumer fans and dehumidifiers don’t move enough air volume to dry structural materials — they mostly evaporate surface moisture while wood framing and wall cavities stay wet. In Long Beach’s coastal humidity, that leads to mold within 24 to 48 hours. Professional equipment is 10 to 20 times more powerful, and proper drying is required for most insurance claims.
Stop the source if possible — cover a damaged roof section with a tarp, shut off the water if a pipe is involved. Then call a restoration company before touching wet materials or running your own fans. Moving air without containment can spread mold spores. Document everything with photos before anything is moved or removed.
If the storm already got in, every hour counts — mold starts inside 24 to 48 hours and standing water only does more damage the longer it sits. Call Jackson Restoration at (949) 669-7346 right now. We’ll dispatch a crew, stop the intrusion, extract the water, dry the structure, and rebuild it back to pre-loss condition — while we handle the insurance paperwork and bill your carrier directly. You focus on your family or your business. We’ll handle the rest. Reach out any time through our contact page or call the line above — day or night.
