Storm and debris cleanup in Santa Ana
SOS Restoration Santa Ana clears what a storm pushes in and dries what it soaked. This is an old town, half its houses built by 1969. Those roofs and slabs have taken decades of rain. Looking is free, day or night. Call (949) 522-4470.

Water came in behind the roof. Now?
We clear the debris, then dry the frame to a reading.
Wind lifts a tired tile and rain finds the gap. Inside, it acts like any water loss, and insulation left wet in a wall turns to mold within days. Both come out.
Mud ran down the driveway. What matters?
Photograph the route and the line it left, before you touch it.
Wide shots of the slope and the path first. Then close shots of the mark on the garage wall, the water-heater stand, and any boxes on the slab. The insurance claim runs on that record.
Why does an old house take it harder?
Because the roof and the seals have aged with the house.
The Census counts 17,408 Santa Ana homes from the 1950s and 14,602 more from the 1960s. Decades of sun crack a seal and lift a shingle. Water that used to run off now gets in.
Which storm damage is another trade's?
A lifted tile or a gutter behind the fascia: that is a roofer, not us.
They stop what is still coming in. We dry what already came in. We meter the ceiling while you call them, so neither job waits.
Does insurance treat storm water the same?
Wind-driven rain and rising water sit in different places on a policy.
Water that came through an opening the storm made is usually covered. Water that rose off the ground is a flood question, and that is its own policy.
What do you do in the first hour?
Close the opening, pull the standing water, and start reading the material.
Boarding and drying run together, because an open roof keeps feeding the loss. The readings from that first hour set what comes out and what stays.
Which towns in a storm?
Santa Ana and the cities across central Orange County.
The crew covers Irvine, Tustin, Anaheim, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach. Tell the dispatcher if the hill above you is sliding.
What does storm work cost?
The look is free; emergency storm response starts at $90 an hour.
Flood from outside is its own policy, apart from a homeowners plan. Either way we document, and the record becomes the insurance claim. The whole rate card is one page.

The cities we drive to for this work
Rain arrives for a whole neighbourhood at once, and the hillside cities get a version of it the flat ones never see. Each page below says which.

A phone number is all we actually need. Anything else you tell us only decides which crew and which gear leave the shop.
A storm loss deepens every hour the water stands, so call it in fast. Dial (949) 522-4470 and a crew rolls.
