What Are The Most Effective Ways To Stormproof My Willard Home?

5/25/2022 (Permalink)

Ohio weather can get wild in late Spring and early Summer. High winds, heavy rain, hail - you can get it all on the same day! To avoid damage to your Willard home, it’s important for you to be prepared for whatever may come. 

What Are Some Storm-Proofing Best Practices For Your Willard Home?

It is never a bad idea to be prepared for emergencies. Checking the weather ahead of time during storm seasons will help you to be forewarned and ready; maintaining your Willard property is another way to be prepared. 

• The weakest spots in your home are the windows. Make sure your house has been equipped with suitable protective windows; storm shutters are also extremely helpful as an additional layer of protection and security against high winds and debris.

• Another vulnerable point in your home is your roof. During repair or replacement, use highly rated shingles that can withstand the harshest weather. 

• Maintain your trees by removing branches that are not strong; these can become dangerous when torn off by high winds. Any large bushes or trees that are dying should be taken out, as well. 

• Ensure that your grounds have proper drainage for water run-off; standing water around driveways, walkways, and foundations will create issues in the future, such as sinkholes, erosion, mold, and more.
