Identifying Storm Damage

Identifying storm damage helps assess the extent of the damage. Storm damage can be caused by severe weather such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms. Let’s just identify:

  • Safety First: Ensure personal safety before inspecting any damage. Avoid downed power lines, unstable structures, and floodwaters.
  • Roof: Look for missing, damaged, or loose shingles, tiles, or metal panels. Check for dents in metal roofing.
  • Siding and Windows: Examine for cracks, breaks, or holes. Check window seals and frames for damage.
  • Gutters & Downspouts: Look for detachments, blockages, or dents. Ensure they are still securely attached.
  • Ceilings and Walls: Check for dark water stains, cracks, or bubbling paint, which may indicate roof leaks from the ceiling.
  • Trees and Shrubs: Assess for broken limbs, uprooted trees, and damaged plants.
  • Electrical: Ensure no downed power lines. Check for electrical surges or shorts.
