Wind Damage Tips

5/4/2022 (Permalink)

It's Spring here in Mississippi. The weather is changing constantly. It can be difficult to predict. Warm temperatures, cold temperatures. Sunshine, then rain. Frosty mornings, comfy afternoons. However, one element that seems to be consistent is the wind. While wind can be a nuisance and add a chill to the air, it can also be potentially devastating to your commercial property. Here are a few things to consider when protecting your property from strong winds:

• Trim trees or shrubs close to your property or business
• Remove debris from the yard (outdoor furniture, etc.)
• Keep rain gutters clear and clean
• Cover windows with plywood if severe winds or storms are approaching
• Ensure materials such as roofing, fencing, and chimneys are properly maintained

Stay up to date with current weather forecasts and be sure to prepare for heavy winds prior to, rather than during the event.  If any wind damage occurs to your commercial property, call SERVPRO of Greenville/Cleveland today at (662)846-1700.
