Storm damage can cause significant harm to your residential property, including structural damage, water damage, and other types of destruction.

Residential storm damage can occur due to severe weather events, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, thunderstorms, and heavy snowfall. Storm damage can cause significant harm to your residential property, including structural damage, water damage, and other types of destruction.

The following are common types of residential storm damage:

• Roof damage: High winds can damage roofs, causing shingles or tiles to become dislodged or torn off completely. This can result in leaks, water damage, and other structural problems.
• Window and door damage: Flying debris, hail, and high winds can break windows and doors, leaving the interior of your Titusville home vulnerable to water damage and other types of destruction.
• Water damage: Heavy rain or flooding can lead to water damage in the basement, crawl space, or other parts of your Venus home. This can result in mold growth, rot, and other structural problems.
• Fallen trees and branches: Trees or branches can fall onto a home during a storm, causing extensive damage to the roof, siding, and other parts of the property.
• Electrical damage: Lightning strikes can damage electrical systems, including wiring, circuits, and appliances.
