Storm Damage Repair TopLine Roofing LLC 2 1The weather in Northeast Ohio is pretty easy to fall in love with. The summers are warm, humid, and partly cloudy. They are almost picture-perfect.

Although thunderstorms are common, they happen mostly in the spring and summer months. What accompanies those thunderstorms, many times is hail, damaging winds, and deadly lightning.

What happens if your home takes the brunt of the hail and winds? Damage can occur. There are a few steps to take after storm damage. Let’s go through them.

Take Pictures

After the storm has passed, and it is safe to go outside, take several pictures showing the damage to your roof. Take a video if you can. Include pictures of missing shingles, damaged gutters, and other signs of damage. Make sure to take excellent pictures if branches are present or a tree has fallen on your roof. It certainly wouldn’t hurt to have more pictures, than not enough.
