1. Maintaining the shrubery

Keeping all tree branches away from the roof is a sure way of preventing roof damage. Friction from the leaning branch and the rooftop could cause holes in the eventuality of a wind surge. It is usually helpful to cut any weak branches that could fall off.

2. Keeping the top clear of stagnant water

In the event it rains, water should certainly rundown the top through the gutters. If no, the river stagnates and slowly actually starts to weaken the rooftop. Removing fallen leaves from your water pipes will save you a home owner big money doing roof repairs.

3. Maintain a properly ventilated attic

During hail storms, ice accumulates on rooftops and the one thing saving the roof from collapsing is the hot air emanating from your attic. If this evaporation does not occur, there is an imminent probability of water stepping into your property from the shingles. To stop this from happening, make sure you have a very skilled professional come check the ventilation inside your attic ahead of the storm takes hold.

4. Water-proof all openings

Water from storms will get into your home through many openings like the chimneys and skylights. Sealants which have decayed need to be repaired with silicone or tar to avoid water leakages. Door and window sealants also can let water in while they weaken eventually.

5. Protecting utility wires

It is a common occurrence for sure utilities such as electricity to get interrupted when storms placed in. This is because of winds weighing documented on tree branches and entangling them electricity or telephone lines. In order to avoid this, always trim tree branches that are growing towards utility supply lines. Remember to cut down weak trees which are swaying precariously near electricity or telephone lines.

Whenever a storm occurs and your home remains intact because of the above techniques, the next step is to access the situation around your house. Trees include the most unlucky and suffer the brunt of the natural occurrences.

Usually do not start scaling down the trees in panic just because you imagine some may drop later. As time passes, you should understand those that must go.

2. Make believe experts
