2. Keeping the top free from stagnant water

When it rains, water should really rundown the top from the gutters. If no, the water stagnates and slowly begins to weaken the roof. Removing fallen leaves from your water pipes will save you a house owner a lot of money doing roof repairs.

3. Maintain a highly ventilated attic

During hail storms, ice accumulates on rooftops and the only thing saving the cover from collapsing will be the heat emanating from your attic. If this evaporation doesn't happen, it has an imminent chance of water stepping into your house from the shingles. To preclude this from happening, it is advisable to have a very skilled professional come look into the ventilation with your attic ahead of the storm shows its head.

4. Water-proof all openings

Water from storms will get to your home through many openings including the chimneys and skylights. Sealants that have decayed should be repaired with silicone or tar to avoid water leakages. Window and door sealants could also let water in since they weaken with time.

5. Monitoring utility cables

This is a common occurrence for many utilities such as electricity being interrupted when storms placed in. This can be as a result of winds weighing recorded on tree branches and entangling them with electricity or telephone lines. In order to avoid this, always trim tree branches that seem to be growing towards utility supply lines. Also remember to cut down weak trees that seem to be swaying precariously near electricity or telephone lines.

When a storm occurs plus your home remains intact due to the above techniques, the time has come to get into the specific situation around your property. Trees will be the most unlucky and suffer the brunt of those natural occurrences.
