Our local team in Springfield and East Lane County is on call 24 hours a day to respond to storm damage emergencies. Strong winds can topple trees, causing property damage. Creswell residents can rely on our fast emergency response time and team of highly trained technicians to efficiently restore the damage. Here are some tips from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for preventing wind damage:
Secure Fencing, Porches, Canopies, and Sheds
Have them inspected and make sure they are firmly attached and in sound structural condition. Secure any parts of fencing that appear weak or loose.
Anchor Any Fuel Tanks and External Utility Links
If you have an exterior fuel tank or any utilities located outside, anchor or tie them down according to the ground anchor instructions. This will help reduce the risk of them overturning and sliding.
Replace Gravel and Rock Landscaping Materials
Rock and gravel materials can cause serious damage during a severe wind event. Gravel has been found in mailboxes during very strong wind events and has even shredded vinyl siding. Replace these materials with a softer material, such as mulch or dirt.
