Water Damage in Glen Cove Creates Significant Problems

Flooding is a common problem after a storm, especially if your Glen Cove home has sustained roof, door, or window damage. These allow water to seep into your property, causing immediate and lifelong damage to your home and belongings. Even though the aftermath of a storm can be upsetting, it is important to begin the repair process immediately to minimize the damage to your home. You may have to hire a reputable, experienced storm damage restoration company to help you repair your home. At SERVPRO, we take rapid actions to secure and restore your residence.

Water damage repair experts in Glen Cove evaluate your home to learn the extent of the damage. Some damages may take time to be obvious. Also, remember that there could be slippery areas, loose floorboards, and broken or exposed electrical lines. Heavy winds and rain usually create physical hazards such as collapsed roofing materials, collapsed walls, or standing water in the home interior and the basement.

Actions to help reduce chances of storm damage:

• Trim trees and shrubs
• Clear out gutters and drains
• Install storm shutters or board up doors and windows
• Bring in outdoor furniture and decorations
