Immediate Steps After a Storm: Safeguarding Your Home & Family

When a storm strikes, prioritizing safety and understanding the immediate next steps are crucial. Acting quickly can minimize further damage and streamline the recovery process.

• Safety First: Before assessing any damage, ensure your family's safety. Stay away from downed power lines, gas leaks, and unstable structures. If necessary, evacuate to a safe location.
• Initial Damage Assessment: Once it's safe, conduct a preliminary check of your property. Look for signs of roof damage (missing shingles, punctures), compromised siding, broken windows, standing water inside your home (indicating water damage), and any large debris. Do not attempt to climb on your roof or enter areas that appear unsafe.
• Documenting Damage for Insurance: This is a critical step. Use your phone or camera to take extensive photos and videos of all damage, both interior and exterior, before any cleanup or repairs begin. This visual evidence will be invaluable for your insurance claim.
• Contacting Your Insurance Provider: Notify your insurance company as soon as possible. They will guide you through their claims process and may dispatch an adjuster to assess the damage.
• Why Professional Assessment is Crucial: While your initial assessment is helpful, a professional storm damage inspection is vital to identify all damage, including hidden issues that could lead to long-term problems like mold growth or structural compromise. Anvil provides thorough inspections to ensure nothing is overlooked.
