Wade Ferris has worked these 77064 streets since 2007, and he’ll answer his own phone at 2 a.m. because he’s been through every storm event this city has seen. Call (888) 534-8116 and Wade heads out himself, with extraction running inside the hour.
Why Wade’s Restoration of Houston Is Jersey Village’s Preferred Storm & Disaster Restoration Company
Jersey Village is different from every other Houston suburb because it sits inside the Addicks Reservoir flood pool. Army Corps of Engineers releases, not just rainfall, can put water on your street. We know that because we’ve pulled soaked drywall out of ranch homes on Bermuda Dunes, Cypress Ridge, and every block in between. Ask anyone on your street who they called after Harvey. Wade’s name comes up.
We’re not a franchise with a rotating crew. Wade Ferris owns this company, publishes his address and license number, and runs into the same people at the Jersey Village H-E-B that he helped after the 2015 Memorial Day floods. That’s the oldest accountability mechanism there is, and it works. Customers in 77064 call us back for storm damage repair because we document moisture readings daily, hand over the full log when we’re done, and deal with insurance adjusters directly so homeowners aren’t stuck relaying information between two sides. Our Storm & Disaster Restoration team is background-checked, uniformed, and IICRC-certified. No answering service. No runaround. Wade answers.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to every storm restoration job we do in Jersey Village. If it’s not done right, Wade makes it right, in writing. That’s how he’s competed since 2007, and it’s why post-Harvey rebuilds on Jersey Village blocks still carry our name.
Our Storm & Disaster Restoration Services in Jersey Village
Wind Damage Repair
Jersey Village ranch homes from the 1960s through 1980s were built before modern wind-load codes. Brick veneer over wood framing handles a lot, but overhead garage doors are the weak point. When a squall line pushes through 77064, wind-rated door panels crack at the stiles, and that opening lets wind-driven rain soak the wall cavity behind whatever drywall got hung after the last flood. We repair or replace those doors with wind-rated assemblies reinforced to current Harris County expectations, then dry the cavity properly before reinstalling finishes. Wind damage on one side of the house usually means hidden moisture on the other. We check both.
Emergency Board-Up
After a tree limb goes through a window or a door blows off its hinges, the clock starts. But plain plywood doesn’t cut it in Jersey Village. Temporary board-up materials that aren’t impact-rated fail in the next squall, and that re-soaks everything you just dried. We use wind-rated, impact-resistant temporary panels on every emergency board-up in 77064, so your insurance claim for storm damage doesn’t get denied because a second-weather event made things worse. Wade keeps a trailer stocked with these panels and can be at your door in Jersey Village within the hour. Senior and veteran homeowners get 10% off, always.
Flood Damage Restoration
When Addicks Reservoir releases push water into Jersey Village streets, the flat Harris County clay keeps it there for days. That means your walls stay wet long after the waterline disappears outside. Our flood damage restoration starts with extraction, but the real work is in drying: daily moisture readings, Injectidry systems in wall cavities, and slab-adjacent checks because LVP flooring buckles when the slab never actually dries. We pull permits where Harris County requires them and document everything for your adjuster. You get the full moisture log at job’s end. Almost nobody else in the trade hands that over.
Roof Tarping
Hail and wind tear through Jersey Village roofs the same way they do everywhere in northwest Harris County, but what’s underneath is different. Post-Harvey rebuilds vary wildly block by block, and a roof leak on a home that flooded twice can find its way into wall cavities that were never properly dried the first time. We tarp roofs fast with B-Air drying equipment ready to go inside, but we also check what’s under the decking before we walk away. Water travels. In Jersey Village, it travels into old flood paths. A tarp is temporary. A written scope for the full repair is what actually protects you.

Trusted Brand Equipment We Use in Jersey Village
The equipment matters because Jersey Village’s humidity above 70% year-round means you have 24 to 36 hours before mold blooms in a wet cavity, not the standard 72. We run Injectidry and Dri-Eaz drying systems on every flood and storm job in 77064 because they pull water out of wall assemblies that trap moisture, which is exactly what 1970s brick-veneer construction does. Our crews stock parts and materials locally, so turnaround on repairs doesn’t wait for a supply run from across town. RIA and IICRC standards guide every drying plan we write. The tools are only as good as the person reading the gauges, and Wade reads every one of them himself.
Common Storm & Disaster Restoration Problems We See in Jersey Village Homes
- Superficially dried walls from prior floods. Post-Harvey brick-veneer walls in Jersey Village trap moisture in cavities. A home that “was remediated” can still read 80%+ moisture after a new storm, and mold blooms within 24 to 36 hours in this humidity. We’ve pulled new drywall off Jersey Village walls to find active colonies behind it.
- Slab moisture that never gets checked. Flat Harris County clay holds standing water for days after a storm. Without slab-adjacent drying verification, new LVP flooring buckles and mold spreads under the slab edge where nobody looks. We check before we install.
- Non-wind-rated board-up materials. Temporary panels that aren’t impact-rated fail in the next squall. That’s a second insurance claim and a denied one. We use wind-rated panels only, and we document the installation for your adjuster.
- Door failures on 1960s-1980s ranch homes. The overhead garage door is the biggest wind-load weak point in Jersey Village’s original housing stock. When the stiles separate, wind-driven rain enters the wall cavity and follows old flood paths through the frame. We see this on nearly every storm call west of Jones Road.

FAQs - Storm & Disaster Restoration in Jersey Village
How does a post-Harvey Jersey Village ranch home show hidden storm damage differently than new construction?
A 1970s brick-veneer ranch in Jersey Village hides storm damage in wall cavities that were likely never properly dried after Harvey. Water from a wind-damaged door follows the same paths it took in 2017, soaking framing that’s been wet before. New construction with modern moisture barriers and flood-resistant assemblies dries faster and shows damage at the surface. In Jersey Village, the damage is usually inside the cavity, behind drywall that looks fine. Call (888) 534-8116 and we’ll meter the walls before you replace anything cosmetic.
What is the expected mold-growth window after a Jersey Village storm when a door fails?
In Jersey Village’s year-round humidity above 70%, mold starts in wall cavities within 24 to 36 hours of a door failing and letting rain inside. That’s half the standard 72-hour window most restoration companies quote. Rapid extraction and aggressive drying with Injectidry equipment in the first day is what prevents a small door repair from becoming a full gut job. The clock starts when the rain stops, not when you notice the damage. Call us as soon as the door fails.
Does the Addicks Reservoir flood-pool designation change how I should handle a wind-damaged garage door?
Yes. In Jersey Village, a wind-damaged door isn’t just about the door. Water entering through a failed panel tracks into wall cavities that flood every time the Corps releases reservoir water. If you only replace the door panels, the cavity stays wet and the mold you can’t see spreads. We pull the damaged panels, dry the cavity with Dri-Eaz equipment, and rebuild the opening with a wind-rated door. That’s the only sequence that makes sense here. Call (888) 534-8116 for a written scope before you patch anything.
Why do Jersey Village storm restoration crews ask if a home flooded in both May 2015 and Harvey 2017?
Because double-flooded Jersey Village homes develop layered mold at multiple wall heights. The 2015 Memorial Day event and Harvey 2017 soaked the same framing two years apart, and if the drying between events was partial, the second flood reactivated old colonies and created new ones higher up the wall. A proper remediation scope has to account for multiple flood lines. If a crew doesn’t ask about 2015, they’re not scoping the job right. Wade asks every time. That question alone has saved Jersey Village homeowners from buying homes with hidden mold behind new drywall.
What local permit or code steps apply to re-hanging a wind-rated door after Jersey Village storm damage?
Harris County requires wind-rated door assemblies to meet current load expectations, and a structural re-hang on an older Jersey Village ranch usually triggers a permit through the county. We handle the permit paperwork and coordinate with your adjuster on the documentation. The key is verifying the door meets wind-load standards for this flood-pool area, because the next squall or release event will test it. We won’t hang a door that doesn’t pass. Call (888) 534-8116 and we’ll walk you through exactly what’s required for your address.
