Flood and storm damage is usually caused by natural occurrences for example hail storms, tornados and hurricanes. Most of these occur in the summer season which enable it to cause devastating damages to homes and infrastructure. Whereas mother nature is unpredictable, there are a few techniques one can possibly use to stop storm damage.

How homeowners can not be victims of flood damage

1. Maintaining your shrubery

Keeping all tree branches away from the roof is one sure means of avoiding roof damage. Friction from your leaning branch and the rooftop could cause holes in the event of a wind surge. It is usually good to cut any weak branches that may disappear.

2. Keep the cover free from stagnant water

If this rains, water is supposed to run-down the cover over the gutters. If this doesn't happen, the water stagnates and slowly actually starts to weaken the top. Removing fallen leaves from your water pipes will save a house owner big money doing roof repairs.

3. Maintain a highly ventilated attic

During hail storms, ice accumulates on rooftops and one and only thing saving the rooftop from collapsing is the hot air emanating from your attic. If it evaporation doesn't happen, there's an imminent chance of water getting into your own home from the shingles. To prevent this from happening, it is advisable to use a skilled professional come confirm the ventilation in your attic ahead of the storm begins.

4. Seal all openings

Water from storms will get to your home through many openings including the chimneys and skylights. Sealants which have decayed must be repaired with silicone or tar to stop water leakages. Window and door sealants could also let water in while they weaken after a while.

5. Protecting electricity cables

It is a common occurrence for sure utilities such as electricity to be interrupted when storms set in. This might be on account of winds weighing recorded on tree branches and entangling them with electricity or telephone lines. In order to avoid this, always trim tree branches that seem to be growing towards utility supply lines. Keep in mind to minimize weak trees that are swaying precariously near electricity or telephone lines.

Every time a storm occurs plus your home remains intact due to the above techniques, the time has come to access your situation around your own home. Trees are the most unlucky and suffer the brunt of these natural occurrences.

Restoration after damage

1. Think before acting!

Tend not to start cutting down the trees in panic even though you think that they could slip later. As time goes by, you will know those that must go.

2. Tree Grabbers

Timber can be a valuable commodity and there will always emerge some fellows claiming to get tree experts. These 'experts' will require you to give them permission to minimize the trees and carry them away for research. Don't be fooled by them.

3. Taking care of the residual trees

Last but not least, employ the help of a qualified tree professional. He/she will reveal how to tend to your surviving trees and protect them down the road from storm damage.
