SERVPRO Can Help Fix Storm Damage in Somerset

Everyone knows that now that summer has finally arrived, it is likely that severe thunderstorms can strike your neighborhood. When storms come into the region, they can bring about heavy rains, high-speed winds, and in some cases, hail. Even though most experts consider large hail storms very rare for New Jersey, it is still possible. In fact, in July last year, a thunderstorm in Bergen County blasted residents with hail the size of tennis balls and golf balls.

During flood damage projects in Somerset, wind, rain, and hail could all be possible causes for moisture to enter your home. When hail strikes your property, it could cause issues that create a leak in your house's structure. For example, hailstones can come crashing into your roof and break or pop holes into your shingles, making your roof leak. If the hail gets as big as golf or tennis balls, then the hail could start breaking windows on your house, letting more rainwater inside your structure.

If a vicious hailstorm causes one or more leaks, the first thing our SERVPRO technicians can do is find where all of the leaks occurred. Next, we can take steps to seal off sections of your roof that leak or board up broken windows so that H2O stops entering your dwelling. After we repair all of the leaks in your building, we can use moisture sensors and meters to see which of your building materials got wet.
