What To Do After A Storm

Wait until the weather threat has passed and follow local safety guidance. Keep people away from damaged areas, fallen trees and downed power lines. Do not climb onto the roof or approach unstable materials to take a closer look.

  • Note when the storm occurred and when you first noticed a change.
  • Take ground-level photos from a safe location, if conditions allow.
  • Record any visible interior leaks or staining without entering unsafe areas.

For broader precautions, consult the National Weather Service post-storm safety guidance.

What A Storm Damage Assessment May Consider

An exterior assessment may consider:

  • Missing or displaced roofing materials and visible flashing concerns.
  • Damaged siding, gutters or downspouts, and visible impact marks.
  • Areas contacted by a fallen tree or limb and any interior moisture symptoms you report.

A storm occurring before a problem does not establish the cause or extent of damage. Photos and visible marks can help explain a concern, but they cannot establish concealed conditions or confirm the complete repair scope.

Storm Damage Project Questions

What Information Is Useful Before An Assessment?

Share existing photos, the affected areas and any known previous work. Include notes on changes you observed before the storm, so the discussion does not rely on timing alone.

Can Roofing, Siding And Gutters Be Reviewed Together?

If concerns involve roofing, siding and gutters, describe them together. Ask which areas belong in the proposed work, which need separate attention and whether related repairs should be coordinated.

What Should I Clarify Before Agreeing To Repairs?

Ask which materials and areas are included, what remains uncertain and which conditions need further review. Confirm the agreed scope in writing, including how proposed changes will be discussed before additional work proceeds.

How Do I Confirm Service At My Property?

Check our service areas and contact our team with your location and the concerns you want assessed. Confirm availability and the next step before making plans.

Storm Damage Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Common Signs Of Storm Damage To A Home?

Common signs can include missing or damaged shingles, dented or loosened exterior materials, damaged flashing, broken or displaced gutters, cracked siding, damaged windows or doors, and impact from fallen branches or debris. Some damage may be difficult to identify from the ground.

What Should I Do If I Suspect Storm Damage?

Start by checking the property from a safe location and avoid climbing onto the roof or approaching unstable debris. Document visible damage when it is safe to do so and arrange for a qualified professional to evaluate areas that may have been affected.

Can Storm Damage Be Present Without An Immediate Leak?

Yes. Some storm-related damage may affect roofing, flashing, siding, or other exterior components without causing an obvious interior leak right away. A closer evaluation can help identify problems that may not be immediately visible.

What Areas Of A Home Can Be Affected By Severe Weather?

Severe weather can affect roofing, siding, gutters, windows, doors, trim, flashing, and other exterior components. The type and extent of damage depend on factors such as wind, hail, falling debris, and the condition of the materials before the storm.

What Factors Affect The Scope Of Storm Damage Repairs?

The scope can depend on which parts of the home were affected, the severity and location of the damage, existing material conditions, accessibility, and whether damaged areas involve multiple exterior systems. A proper evaluation helps determine the work that may be needed.

What Should I Understand Before Storm Damage Work Begins?

Homeowners should understand which damaged areas are included, what repairs or replacements are proposed, which materials and components are involved, and whether additional damage may be discovered during the work. Reviewing the written scope can help clarify what the project includes.
