Storms can cause serious damage to homes, from leaks and flooding to broken windows and roof damage. If your home has been hit by a storm, here’s what to do to keep your home and family safe.
1. Stay Safe
Before anything, make sure your home is safe. If there’s flooding or severe damage, it’s best to leave and call for help. Your safety comes first!
2. Check for Damage
Once it’s safe, take a look around your home:
- Are there leaks in the roof or water spots on the ceiling?
- Is there water damage in the basement or other areas?
- Any broken windows or doors?
Take photos of any damage to share with your insurance company.
3. Stop More Damage
If you can, make small repairs to stop more damage, like covering broken windows or using towels to soak up water. Don’t try to fix anything major on your own.
4. Contact Your Insurance
Reach out to your insurance company as soon as possible. Send them the photos of the damage to start your claim.
