Storm season can be unpredictable in Houston, but a few proactive steps can help protect your home from damage. At SERVPRO of Houston Central South, we know that being prepared makes all the difference. Here are some essential tips to get your property ready for severe weather.

1. Clean Gutters and DownspoutsHouston storms often bring heavy rainfall, and clogged gutters can lead to water pooling around your foundation. Regularly clean your gutters and make sure your downspouts direct water away from your home.

2. Trim Trees and Secure Loose ItemsHigh winds can turn branches and outdoor objects into dangerous projectiles. Trim any overhanging branches near your home and secure patio furniture, potted plants, and other loose items.

3. Check Your Roof and WindowsInspect your roof for missing shingles or damage, and ensure windows are sealed properly. Leaks can cause significant water damage during a storm, so taking preventive action is crucial.

4. Create an Emergency PlanHave a plan in place for your family. Know where to seek shelter during severe weather and have emergency supplies ready, including water, batteries, and important documents.

If your home sustains storm damage, call SERVPRO of Houston Central South. Our team is available 24/7 to respond to emergencies and restore your property efficiently.
