After The Storm: Be Prepared
10/2/2020 (Permalink)
We're all prepared and ready for when a storm comes. But what about after the storm? Do you have a checklist of what to look for? Storms and the after effects they leave behind can be stressful. Don't get overwhelmed.
Once you know it's safe to enter your home begin taking pictures of the after damage, before you move anything.
Before you enter the home step back and try to see as much of the roof as possible. Are there missing shingles? Are there any visible holes? Before you enter the home make sure all doorways are clear and secure.
Once inside your home check to make sure that there are no cracks or visible leaks.
Once you have done your own initial walk through call us. The faster the call comes in the faster we can remove any water and begin the restoration process.
Never try to do the clean up alone. Water damage can look dry but damage can be below the surface.
