Even mild windstorms can cause a lot of destruction but fortunately, there are steps you can take to lower your risk of having wind damage to your home or business.

1. Remove trees or hanging branches in close proximity to your structure. Storms easily knock down trees, but that doesn’t mean you need to be at risk. If you have trees next to your house or office, consider having them trimmed if they are top-heavy or removed if they are sick, dying, or completely dead.
2. Move furniture in your yard to a safe place. Nearly any unsecured object—including furniture on your property can be hazardous and damaging in a windstorm. Either fasten loose objects or have them temporarily relocated until the storm passes.
3. Haul debris. If you have any extra items laying around it is a good idea to take the time to have loose items removed for your safety.
4. Watch the weather! Local weather forecasts predict storms pretty accurately. Always be prepared!

There are several ways you can mitigate your risk of having wind damage, But there’s no sure way to prevent it completely. If you have damage due to high wind storms, SERVPRO of Woodland Hills is always here to clean up and restore your property. 818-882-4556
