Wind Damage Caused by a Tornado
Property destruction from a tornado is devastating for any homeowner or business owner. No matter how large or small the damage, when you see your property torn, smashed, scorched, or weakened you just want the problem to stop.
Wind from a tornado is incredibly powerful and can lead to any of the following problems:
- Ripped roof
- Torn siding
- Broken windows
- Pulled up fencing
- Broken trees
Water, Fire, and Other Tornado Damage
The fallout from tornado damage not only involves the consequences of powerful wind gusts. The violence of nature can also lead to:
- Water damage. A tornado’s wrath can lead to open spaces all around your home, from a hole in the roof to a smashed window to a felled tree. This allows water to enter large and small spaces alike, causing flooding, damage, mold, mildew, and destruction. A tornado can also wreak havoc on water lines, causing pipes to burst and further damage.
- Fire damage. If power lines are knocked down or water and electric lines meet because of a tornado’s strength, this storm can cause fires. A lightning strike, a wildfire, a scorched tree – any fire outbreak threatens home and property.
- Power outages. A power outage is dangerous in a natural disaster and makes it harder to stay safe, especially for properties that do not have surge protectors or underground power lines. There are also increased risks of carbon monoxide poisoning or disasters caused by open flames.
Quick mitigation after a tornado can stop other types of structural damage from occurring. An experienced restoration company acts quickly when everything seems to be imploding with structural stabilization, temporary electric, HVAC, plumbing, and more.
The VersaPro Tornado Damage Restoration Process
The goal in every case of tornado damage is to reverse as much of the destruction as possible and do it quickly. The VersaPro tornado damage restoration process typically follows this format:
- Inspection. Our pro assesses the damage and delivers a price estimate for immediate mitigation and future repairs.
- Mitigation. Depending on the amount of damage done, tarps, fencing, and board-ups are immediately deployed to stop additional problems from developing and create a safe environment. Mitigation can also include sealing holes, fixing leaks, and reinforcing weak areas.
- Cleaning. Once the damaged property has been addressed and problems have been stopped in their tracks, clean up is done to extract water and glass, remove trees, and relocate possessions to reduce secondary damage. Interior areas are dried, dehumidified, and sanitized as needed.
- Repairs. After all major reconstruction has been completed, and you are ready to address the aesthetic part of your property damage, it’s time to use remodeling services to get the space back to livable order with painting, drywall repair, carpeting installation, flooring repair, siding and roof replacements, and more.
