WHEN IT COMES TO STORM DAMAGE, BASIC UPKEEP GOES A LONG WAY

Ensure Proper Sealing of Door and Windows

Wind only needs a small opening to get underneath something like a shingle or siding and rip it off. And in the event of tornadic winds, a small opening in your windows or doors could enlarge (read: break) and allow enough wind inside to compromise your home’s roof.

Check for Loose Fence Posts

Wind will surprise you. Anything that’s not nailed down is a liability, and that includes fence posts, which are often forgotten or ignored in homeowner’s storm-prep.

Checking your fence’s footing is as easy as giving each post a strong shake to check for loose ones.
