Storm Damage

Storm damage causes more than $40 billion in property damage each year, along with the human impact of hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries. Storm damage can cause both immediate and lingering damages to your home, making it wise to engage a professional water and fire restoration company to restore your home after it experiences storm damage.

Storm damage can result in flooding and water damage, as well as wind and roof damage. Flood damage can result in long-term water damage and weaken the infrastructure of your home. Roof damage can expose your home to the elements and can also cause long-term structural damage from leaks, especially if it goes undetected for a long period of time. Residents of older homes may also be at risk of asbestos exposure following storm damage if that damage releases old asbestos components into the air.

Restoration companies can help you after a storm by assessing the damage. Specially trained, these companies can often detect damage that other, non-specialized construction industry professionals might miss. Restoration companies can advise you on the safety of your home, what will be required to fix it, and can perform the work, with the help of other contractors, if necessary.
