When storm damage hits, call SERVPRO of Woodbury, Cottage Grove.

Specific Situations Impact Cottage Grove Properties with Storm Damages Differently. 

Post-storm cleanup is vital for many properties in the area after disasters strike. From high winds and flooding to hail and ice storms, we must have the right solution for the damage that occurs. We can help with: 

• Repairs
• Flood removal
• Cleanup
• Drying

Wind Damages

Storm damage for Cottage Grove homes can include situations like high winds. When temperatures steeply change or harsh storms are moving in, violent winds can be enough on their own to knock down trees, their limbs, or pummel properties with debris.

Torrential Rainfall

Hard rains are not uncommon for the area, either. While not all rainstorms produce flood conditions, prolonged storm systems and heavy downpours can generate conditions for destructive events like flash flooding. Rapidly moving water swells can destroy home defenses and leave property owners contending with several inches of standing water to extract and dry up.

Snow and Ice Events

In the northern part of the United States, our area sees some of the worst winter weather conditions regarding snow, ice, and destructive temperature drops. Freezing pipes can be a significant concern, as well as ice damming along the edges of a roof that prevents snowmelt from reaching gutters. Instead, water is forced back into the home through roofing materials.

Hail Impacts on a Home

Hail is a collection of solid precipitation dropping on homes, structures, vehicles, and other sensitive materials. While roofs can withstand impacts like these, prolonged storms or hail damage to already compromised roofs can be enough to produce structural vulnerabilities. Our competent restoration team must address water penetration into the attic as quickly as possible.

Storms and natural disasters are destructive and costly for homeowners to restore and repair. With a team capable of both recovery and build-back services under one roof, we can save customers money and time on the work their properties might need.
