What to Do to Minimize Damage After a Storm

Safety First

Prioritize the safety of you and your family above all else. You may be tempted to tackle damage assessment or repair ventures on your own, but remember that doing so will put you at risk. In fact, you may even compound existing problems with DIY work. Let the pros handle the job for you as they have the experience and knowledge to do the job correctly and safely.

Assess the Damage

Inspect your roof visually from the ground using a pair of binoculars. Check for missing or damaged shingles and contact your roof repair specialist if you notice any damage.

Call Your Insurance Agent

This is to make sure you get the compensation you deserve. Taking this step will let you know whether you’re entitled to a claim or not. After this, you’ll need to enlist the aid of a trusted roofer to work closely with your insurance provider.
