We restore wind damage “Like it never even happened” in Lane County.

Our local South Eugene and Florence teams are trained and certified to restore wind damage. Living in Wolf Creek, Oregon, means preparing for the occasional wind advisory. Here are some steps to safeguard your property:

Secure Loose Items: Wind can turn seemingly harmless objects into projectiles. Secure outdoor furniture, decorations, and anything else that could potentially cause damage if picked up by strong gusts.

Trim Trees and Branches: Weak or overhanging branches can break off during high winds, threatening your home. Trim trees and remove dead branches that could fall onto your property.

Reinforce Doors and Windows: Ensure all doors and windows are adequately sealed and reinforced. Consider installing storm shutters or boarding up windows if necessary, especially for particularly vulnerable areas.

Check Roofing and Gutters: Inspect your roof for any loose or damaged shingles and repair them promptly. Clean out gutters to prevent clogging, which could lead to water damage during heavy rain accompanying the wind.

Emergency Preparedness: Have an emergency kit readily available, including essential supplies such as food, water, flashlights, batteries, and a first aid kit.
