How to Inspect Your Home After a Severe Storm
From time to time, especially during the summer months, you can expect severe storms to hit your area. And when that happens, it’s natural to have concerns about your home.
From high winds to strong rain to hail, you never know what your home may need to endure. While you hope for the best, you won’t know the true impact on your property until you inspect it after the storm has cleared out.
When doing so, pay attention to the following:
• Roof
• Siding
• Windows and doors
• Gutters
• Landscaping
For example, if there were high winds in the area, you may have lost some shingles. If you don’t replace them right away, you’re inviting water into your home.
Just the same, strong winds and heavy rain can wreak havoc on your gutters, such as tearing them off your home. Once again, immediate action is required.
You hope that your home makes it through every storm unscathed, but you may not be that lucky. Should you see any damage, inspect it closely to better understand the extent and then call in a professional to repair it.
