Know Who to Call Before a Storm!

Hurricane season is upon us. There are currently two tropical storms already in the Gulf of Mexico. This hurricane season is predicted to be extremely active. Hurricanes are unpredictable and can cause severe water damage. It is very important to know what to do in the event of water damage before the loss occurs.
Before a storm occurs, talk to your insurance agent to find out what kind of coverage you have. If a storm is predicted to affect your geographic area, prepare your home and property for impact the best you can.
Secure all doors, windows, and other points of entry in your home. Move electronics off of the floor and have at least 5 days worth of food, water, and stock up on medications.
In the event of water damage, act quickly to restore your home. Standing water is a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and attracts mosquitoes. Untreated water damage can also lead to harmful mold growth.
