Understanding the Threats: Michigan Storms

Michigan weather can be unpredictable, especially around the East Lansing area. From heavy snow in winter to thunderstorms and even the occasional tornado in summer, the impact on your home can be significant. Understanding these threats is the first step in preparing your property for what Mother Nature may bring.

Winter storms, for instance, can cause ice dams, which may lead to roof leaks. Meanwhile, spring and summer bring their own challenges, with thunderstorms capable of producing high winds that can damage roofing, siding, and windows. And let’s not forget the potential for flooding during heavy rains, which can compromise your home’s foundation and basement.

Steps to Recover from Storm Damage

When a storm hits, it’s crucial to know how to respond quickly and effectively. Here are some steps you can take to begin the recovery process:

  1. Assess the Damage: After ensuring your safety, inspect your home for visible damage. Look for missing shingles, broken windows, or water intrusion. Taking photos for insurance purposes can also be beneficial.

  2. Temporary Repairs: If possible, make temporary repairs to prevent further damage. Tarping a damaged roof or boarding up broken windows can help protect your home from the elements.

  3. Call in the Experts: Storm damage can be complex, and fixing it often requires professional help. That’s where SERVPRO of East Lansing/Haslett comes in. Our team has the experience and tools needed to restore your home quickly and efficiently.
