Debunking Four Common Myths About Storm Damage Restoration

When homeowners and business owners need a trustworthy restoration company to fix their property damage, SERVPRO is at the top of the list. Whether it’s water damage, wind damage, hail damage, or other emergencies, the team can handle any disaster. 

Here are four myths they see about storm damage restoration and how property owners can help streamline their recovery process:

Myth #1 If There’s No Visible Damage, There’s No Need to Call Storm Damage Restoration Experts

In storm damage restoration, the biggest problems are the invisible ones. If a roof has no noticeable missing shingles after a storm, it is still very likely that the event could have loosened, punctured, chipped, cracked, or damaged the shingles in significant ways. The damage might start small, but it can quickly expand into a leak that allows water into the space or some other deterioration that weakens the structure over time.

A practiced storm and wind restoration specialist like SERVPRO is essential after these kinds of events. If the property has been through fire, flood, or storm damage, it is crucial to let the professionals identify and fix these issues before the problem turns into a costly replacement or, worse, a dangerous collapse.

Myth #2 Claiming for Water Damage Restoration or Commercial Cleaning Causes Insurance Issues

An insurance company will not cancel an insurance policy when a homeowner or business owner makes a viable claim with well-documented evidence of the damages. While any Texas insurance company may change their rates when local damage spikes, they will never end a policy on a fair insurance restoration claim. In fact, this kind of measure would be against the law.

It is important to call SERVPRO for fire or water damage restoration immediately. Commercial cleaning experts and storm damage restoration services are more effective when they can stop a new water leak, draft, or pest infestation before it gets out of hand; insurance companies will appreciate proactive services as a cost-effective approach.

Myth #3 Roofing Warranties Always Cover Storm Damage

It’s rare for roofing and shingle manufacturers to cover storm damage as part of their warranty. Most manufacturers cover shingles for material defects, wind damage, or algae growth. Property owners with roofing warranties that do cover storm damage should consult their warranty before contacting the insurer, but generally, homes and businesses can safely skip this step.

Myth #4 Minimal Damage Does Not Require Storm or Fire Restoration Claims

Texas storms and wind damage roofing and property owners should always file a storm or fire restoration claim after severe weather. Some insurance policies will not cover damage that has deteriorated or was not reported immediately. If homeowners or business owners do not file a claim on the initial damage, they risk much more expensive issues later.
