Preparing for a potential disaster, such as a hurricane, is not as simple as it sounds; however, it is without a doubt something we should all consider for various safety reasons. Whether if there has been a recent fire, hurricane, or another structural damaging disaster, boarding up damaged property is a burden that no one should have to experience.

Fun Fact: When a slower moving hurricane, such as many of the hurricanes that make its way to the DC Metro area, can produce more rainfall and cause excess damage due to flooding than faster-moving and higher category hurricanes.

Boarding up damaged property incorrectly can cause secondary damages such as moisture or animal intrusion. The process of boarding up after an unexpected damage can also be as dangerous as the storm’s strength itself.

Our SERVPRO® Franchise professionals can board up your damaged property, mitigate, and remediate the original damage while providing you with peace of mind “Like it never even happened.”
