Tornadoes: How SERVPRO can help after a major disaster

4/16/2019 (Permalink)

Tornadoes can occur anywhere, but the Midwest gets more than its fair share of these terrifying storms in the spring and summer months. If a tornado touches down in your neighborhood, SERVPRO is “faster to any disaster” and can help you with the aftermath.

1. Wind damage- Wind speeds in a tornado can be as high as 300 mph. While these high winds can demolish a home, more common is damage to a home’s roof and siding. When this happens, you need to act fast to prevent further damage. SERVPRO partners with trusted contractors that we can connect you with to make it "Like it never even happened.”
2. Water damage- Tornadoes come from the energy released in a thunderstorm, which usually involves rain. Wind and rain can combine for a dangerous mix when it comes to the well-being of your home or business. If you have water damage after a tornado or other type of storm, call SERVPRO as soon as the storm passes, and we’ll work with you to preserve your belongings and prevent mold growth.
3. Downed trees and limbs- If you experience downed trees and limbs, contact us and we can refer you to a trusted contractor to help remove the debris. SERVPRO of Henry and Randolph Counties can help you with the damage left by the downed trees and limbs, including the clean-up of broken glass and insulation pieces, which can be dangerous.

We hope you never have to experience the aftermath of a tornado, but if you do, contact SERVPRO of Henry and Randolph Counties and we’ll make it "Like it never even happened.”
