Rainstorm Damage in Oceana?
5/11/2021 (Permalink)
Storm damage happens in Oceana.
During the last rainstorm, my roof began to leak, and water came in through the attic and down through the ceiling. My neighbor told me to call SERVPRO® of Beckley. They arrived quickly and tarped up the roof and conducted a thorough inspection and determined the cause of the damage as a cracked shingle and deteriorated flashing by my chimney. They dried out the area and returned my home to pre-water damage condition in a short amount of time.
According to a study published by the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety (IBHS), roof leaks were the most common source of water damage in the study, and the potential for a roof leak was even higher in regions where freezing weather and severe wind and hail were frequent. The IBHS suggests having a professional inspect the roof annually and to make repairs if:
- There are cracked or missing shingles or loose or missing granules
- Flashing has deteriorated, especially around chimneys and vents
- Pooling water is present
