Common Misconceptions About Storm Damage And How You Can Overcome Them

When things go sideways, or in this case, in the living room, don't panic. We are always here to help.

If you know anything about Middle Georgia, it’s that we get lots of rain! On average, we get 45 inches of rain per year. While rain is excellent for plant growth and sustaining life, it can lead to flooding, mold, odor, and more when in excess. You need the experts if this happens to you! We specialize in storm damage restoration and cleanup at SERVPRO of Baldwin and Monroe. With speedy response times and the resources we can access from multiple franchises, you can count on us to get back your Nashville home or business “Like it never even happened.”

What Are Some Common Misconceptions About Storm Damage?

• When disaster strikes, you may be wondering how insurance works in line with the scope of damage to your property. It is a common misconception that you don’t need to file an insurance claim after storm damage, but this is far from the truth! 
• What you do need to know, however, is that you can’t make a claim until you’re able to document your property’s damage, which goes for any disaster, not just storms. 
• Just because you can’t see the damage doesn’t mean it’s not there! Storms can loosen your shingles enough to create openings where water can come through, causing dents that lead to water leaks after a certain period. It is still better to call a professional to do an inspection on the extent of the damage so any further damage can be prevented!
