Fast, Reliable Storm & Disaster Restoration Across Selma
When a storm tears through Selma, you need a crew that knows the difference between wind damage and the slower, quieter water damage that follows. Floodline Restoration Co. of California answers the phone 24/7 with a live dispatcher, and our certified technicians reach Selma homes quickly, usually within the hour. We’ve worked on slab-on-grade ranches off Rose Avenue, homes near the irrigation laterals, and aging stucco properties throughout the 93662 ZIP. Call (888) 737-2439 the moment you see damage, and we’ll start the assessment while the storm is still on your mind.
Why Floodline Restoration Co. of California Is Selma’s Preferred Storm & Disaster Restoration Company
Selma homeowners call us because we treat storm damage as a structural problem, not just a cleanup job. The crews we send into Selma are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards. Curt Bowman founded this company around a dispatch board, not a sales desk, and after 15 years that still holds: a live person picks up at 2 a.m., and the crew that arrives knows how Selma’s tule fog changes drying times.
We don’t hand your job to a subcontractor once the water is out. The same crew that boards up your windows and tarps your roof handles the drying, the moisture readings, and the rebuild. That matters in Selma, where mid-century homes with original single-pane windows and minimal vapor barriers need a crew that understands how slowly these structures release moisture in January fog. And every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, no arguing, no paperwork battles.
Our reputation in Selma is built on showing up when we say and standing behind the result. The Keystone Standard, our written guarantee, is tied to a simple code: Krafted right, Every time, Your home first, Standing behind it. We’ll be there when we say.
Our Storm & Disaster Restoration Services in Selma
Storm damage in Selma rarely announces itself politely. It starts with a wind-rated door pulling loose from aging stucco, then rain drives into the entry, and within days you’re dealing with hidden moisture in a slab-on-grade floor. Our Storm & Disaster Restoration team handles the full cycle, from the first board-up to the finished rebuild.
Storm Damage Cleanup
After a windstorm or heavy rain event, Selma yards and roofs collect debris that can hide real structural damage. We clear the debris, document everything with photos for your insurance carrier, and inspect for the failure modes we see most often in this city: pulled door anchors, split roof decking, and water that found its way into wall cavities. Most storm cleanup jobs in Selma run $900 to $2,800 depending on the debris load and whether interior drying is needed.
Flood Damage Restoration
Flood water in Selma doesn’t always come from the sky. Homes along the irrigation laterals and drainage canals in the 93662 ZIP regularly see groundwater intrusion that looks exactly like a broken pipe but has an entirely different source. We extract the water, map the moisture with professional-grade Dri-Eaz and Phoenix equipment, and check whether your foundation drainage needs attention before the next wet cycle. A typical flood extraction and dry-out in Selma runs $3,200 to $7,500.
Emergency Board-Up
A broken window or compromised door in Selma needs to be secured before the next front moves through, and before tule fog adds moisture to an already open structure. We board up openings with impact-rated materials, working quickly but carefully. Emergency board-up in Selma typically runs $350 to $900 per opening, and we coordinate directly with your insurance carrier so you’re not playing messenger.
Roof Tarping
Selma’s summers routinely top 105°F, and that heat creates thermal splits in flat and low-slope roofs common on local ranch homes and agricultural buildings. When winter rain hits those splits, the leaks start. We tarp compromised roofs fast to stop active water intrusion, then assess whether you need a patch or a full section replacement. Roof tarping in Selma runs $450 to $1,200 for a standard residential application, and our tarping holds through fog and wind until permanent repairs are scheduled.

We service wind-rated door assemblies, impact-rated windows, and low-slope roof systems from all major manufacturers. Our technicians train to IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards, and we run Dri-Eaz and Phoenix drying equipment on Selma jobs because this climate demands professional-grade gear, not rental-store fans.

Common Storm & Disaster Restoration Problems We See in Selma Homes
- Wind-rated door anchors pulling loose from slab-on-grade stucco. Selma’s mid-century homes often have original anchor points that have rusted or loosened after decades of thermal cycling. When the next wind event hits, the door fails at the jamb and rain drives straight into the entry.
- Thermal splits in low-slope roofs re-opening under tule fog moisture. That 105°F summer heat stress cracks roofing membranes, and winter fog keeps the cracks wet for weeks. A roof that looked fine in September can be actively leaking by December.
- Groundwater intrusion from irrigation laterals misdiagnosed as storm flooding. If your Selma home sits near a canal or lateral, water in your crawlspace may have nothing to do with rainfall. Crews that don’t know the area dry the visible water and leave, but the foundation drainage problem returns every winter.
- Valley fever risk during storm debris removal near canal banks. Fresno County is one of the nation’s highest-risk zones for Coccidioides immitis, the fungus that causes Valley fever. Disturbing soil near canal banks without proper respiratory protection is a real occupational hazard, and we train our crews accordingly.

FAQs - Storm & Disaster Restoration in Selma
Selma follows California Building Code requirements for wind-load and impact resistance, but enforcement on existing single-family homes is often limited to the scope of your repair project. If you’re replacing a failed door and the opening was originally framed for a standard unit, you may be permitted to install a like-for-like door without full wind-load documentation. But here’s what we tell Selma homeowners: if you’re already repairing storm damage, installing an impact-rated door with proper anchors is the smarter long-term choice, especially given how often we see standard doors fail at the jamb during valley wind events. Our team can pull the permit and handle the documentation. Call (888) 737-2439 for a free assessment.
Tule fog is the answer. From November through February, Selma sits under fog for days or weeks at a time, and that keeps outdoor relative humidity near saturation. Structural drying that would take three days in July can stretch to a week or more in January because the air itself is too wet to absorb moisture from your walls and slab. We run Dri-Eaz LGR dehumidifiers and Phoenix air movers specifically to force drying in high-humidity conditions, and we log daily moisture readings until your home hits the dry standard. Call (888) 737-2439 if your home is still damp days after a storm.
Yes, and this is one of the most misdiagnosed problems we see in the 93662 ZIP. Selma is bisected by irrigation laterals and drainage canals, and during heavy irrigation seasons, canal-adjacent lots see groundwater rise through the foundation and into crawlspaces and slab areas. It looks identical to storm flooding or a plumbing failure, but the source is entirely different and will recur annually until the foundation drainage is addressed. If your Selma home sits near a canal and you’re seeing water after irrigation cycles, even without rain, you need a crew that knows to check the laterals. Call (888) 737-2439 for an inspection.
Get it tarped immediately, then have the membrane inspected. Selma’s 105°F summers create thermal expansion and contraction that splits flat and low-slope roofing materials over time, and winter rain exploits those splits. If you wait, water moves into the decking and insulation, and the repair scope grows. We tarp the roof to stop active intrusion, document the damage for your carrier, and give you a written scope for either a patch or a full section replacement. Roof tarping in Selma runs $450 to $1,200, and we can usually be on site the same day you call. Call (888) 737-2439.
It is, and it’s one reason we take respiratory protection seriously on Selma jobs. Fresno County is one of the nation’s highest-risk zones for Coccidioides immitis, the soil fungus that causes Valley fever. Any work that disturbs soil, such as flood excavation, crawlspace dryouts, or debris removal near canal banks, can release spores into the air. Coastal contractors don’t face this, but Selma crews do, and proper masks and dust control are not optional. If you’re doing any post-storm digging on your own property, wear an N95 at minimum, and call (888) 737-2439 for professional crews who are equipped for the local risk.
