- Storm-water intrusion through openings

Phoenix Storm Damage & Board-Up — Frequently Asked Questions
The questions Phoenix property owners ask most during monsoon season and after storm damage.
What kind of storm damage do you handle in Phoenix?
Kowalski handles monsoon roof failures, microburst wind damage, hail damage, fallen tree impact, lightning strike fire damage, and the water intrusion that follows storm events. We respond 24/7/365 across the Phoenix metro and statewide. Storm damage usually arrives in layers, the wind or roof failure first and then the water that gets in afterward, and we handle both in the same job.
Can you board up my property tonight?
Yes. Kowalski owns the Phoenix 1-800-BOARDUP franchise and dispatches emergency board-up, tarping, fencing, and shoring crews 24/7/365. We secure properties to prevent further damage, theft, and weather intrusion until full restoration begins. Call (602) 944-2645 at any hour and a board-up crew is dispatched to secure the openings.
Will my insurance cover storm damage restoration?
Most homeowners and commercial policies cover wind, hail, and storm damage. Kowalski direct-bills your carrier and documents damage with photos, moisture readings, and a full scope of work so the claim moves quickly. What a given policy covers is your carrier's decision, so call them early and photograph the damage before anything is moved.
How fast can you respond during monsoon season?
Kowalski staffs additional crews during monsoon season (mid-June through September) and prioritizes emergency dispatch for active storm damage. A live person answers your call 24/7/365 — there's no answering service or queue. Call as early in the storm as you safely can: when one storm damages hundreds of properties in a night, the earliest calls are dispatched first.
Do you handle the rebuild too, not just cleanup?
Yes. Kowalski performs every phase of storm damage restoration under one roof — board-up, mitigation, structural drying, mold prevention, and full reconstruction including roof, drywall, electrical, and finishes. Because the same company does the mitigation and the rebuild, nothing is lost in a handoff between contractors, and you have one project manager and one point of contact for your adjuster.

“Had to repair a few our apartment units and office after the storm last summer. Overall, I had a great experience largely in part to Liz. I've worked with other GC teams in the past, and the key differentiator here was the additional layer that she provided — frequent communication on project updates, quick follow-ups, and if she didn't know the answer, she looped the right person in. Not sure how she does it, but positive attitude every single interaction. Thanks to Liz and the entire team for making a stressful situation a little bit easier.”
