Tips for Preparing Your Home for Storm Season in Victorville?
11/12/2024 (Permalink)
Ensuring your home is ready for this winter's storm season is essential to minimize damage and ensure your family's safety. Our local Hesperia/Apple Valley, Barstow/Twentynine Palms, and Victorville teams offer these tips for making sure your home is ready for stormy weather:
- Clear Gutters and Downspouts: Clogged gutters allow water to overflow and back up and damage your roof. Make sure they are debris-free so water can flow away from your home during heavy rainfall.
- Inspect Your Roof: Loose shingles or minor damage can turn into major issues during a storm. Have your roof inspected before storm season to ensure it's in top condition.
- Trim Trees and Branches: Overhanging branches can break during high winds and damage your roof, siding, or windows. Trim back branches that pose a risk.
- Secure Windows and Doors: Consider storm shutters or reinforced glass for your windows, and check that doors are properly sealed to prevent wind and water intrusion.
- Check Foundation Drainage: Ensure water is directed away from your home's foundation. Pooling water can weaken your foundation over time.
Following these tips can help reduce the risk of storm damage and keep your home safe.
