Has hurricane season affected your home or business? Call SERVPRO of Parsippany, Montville to get you back to preloss condition.

The storm season is here to stay for a while in the Parsippany area, and we are certainly seeing our fair share of storms and rain at this point in the year. While some rain storms can be quiet and actually relaxing, other storms can arrive in a blaze of glory and cause significant damage to your home in a short amount of time. 

Recovering after a storm can be tricky depending on the extent of your damage. Follow our tips below to help you navigate this unknown safely and calmly. 

Steps After the Storm

Be cautious about venturing outside as soon as you start to hear the storm fade away. There might be another one on the horizon! 

Stay connected to local authorities and keep your weather radio handy so you are ready to jump back inside at a moment’s notice. Once you and your family have made it outside, connect with your loved ones to make sure everyone fared OK.

Check on your neighbors and help anyone in the area if their homes suffered significant damage. If your home was victim to a strong wind, tornado or flood, stay calm and walk carefully about your property. 

Loose boards, broken windows and exposed wiring can all be safety hazards right after a storm. Take photos of all the damage you see. This helps us create our recovery plan for you, but it also helps your insurance company file a more accurate claim.
