SERVPRO of West Greenville County helps out every year when large storms sweep over the coast of the United States. These storms are severely damaging and the damage often happens quickly. However, right here in the Upstate of South Carolina, we experience heavy rains and thunderstorms year round. Sometimes the water damage that local homes and businesses suffer are long term and go unnoticed. When experience heavy rains and winds, it is important to check areas of your home to make sure no water damage has occurred. SERVPRO of West Greenville County wants to help teach you where to look for water damage.

Make sure to check your exterior, including windows, doors and roof for damage. Windows that are not properly installed may cause leaking and damage to the surrounding walls. Roofs are the brunt of any storm and missing shingles, holes, and leaks are signs to look for of water damage. Any HVAC unit that is on the outside of your home is also subject to damage from strong winds. 

Not all storm damage is apparent right away, so checking these few things after a storm can help prevent prolonged water damage to your home or business. Give us a call at (864)-292-8570 for our mitigation services!
