Storm Damage Response for Property Owners

Q: Should I wait for insurance approval before temporary protection?

Contact the insurer where possible, but immediate safety and weather protection may need prompt action. Keep records and photographs.

After a storm, focus on safety, weather exposure & clear documentation before normal repair planning begins.

Stay away from unstable areas

Do not approach downed power lines, loose exterior materials or damaged structures. Fire, electrical & life-safety conditions require the appropriate emergency service first.

Document from a safe location

Photograph visible roof material, windows, fencing, water entry & debris without climbing or entering unsafe areas.

Separate temporary protection from permanent repair

Board-up, weather protection or a temporary roof repair may reduce further damage. Permanent repair follows after the condition is safely reviewed.
