Safety First

Safety should always be your first priority before you go out to inspect for damage to your property. After a storm, there are many dangers. If you don’t have safety equipment, or you prefer to stay put, KCG Roofing and Carpentry will inspect your home and determine if you are covered for storm damage. Call KCG Roofing and Carpentry for more information.

Record

Take a walk around your property and take photos and videos of any damage. This will be a huge help when you need to file an insurance claim to get your roof repaired or replaced. These are some things you should look at and keep track of:

• Roof: Take a walk around your home’s perimeter to inspect the roof. A window may allow you to see the roof better from one of your windows. Look out for missing, damaged, curled or dented shingles.
• Gutters and Vents – Check your gutters and vents to make sure they are free from dents or other damage.
• Windows: Check the windows for cracks or broken glass, as well as torn screens.
• Perimeter: Look around your front and back yards to see if there are any fallen trees, missing fence posts or damage to lawn furniture, decorations and plants.
• Ceiling and Attic: Check to make sure that nothing has made it in. You want to ensure that there is no moisture or water in the attic and on the top floor. If water leaks come in contact with electric wires, they can prove to be dangerous.
