Our Tornado Restoration Process Explained

8/2/2023 (Permalink)

Storms are no joke here in Tennessee, particularly tornadoes, and can cause major damage with little warning. In the unfortunate case that a tornado damages your property, know that SERVPRO Belle Meade/West Nashville will be on the scene as soon as possible to begin your restoration process. Keep reading to learn how SERVPRO makes it as if your disaster “never even happened.” 

Ways Tornado Damage Can Affect Your Nashville Home

• Flooding: Severe weather can bring flash flooding into the area, which can bring water damage to lower floors or your basement. Where water settles, mold can likely follow if the water is not removed properly. 
• Debris: Strong winds from tornadoes can wreak havoc on your home. Loose furniture or decor can get picked up during strong winds and damage the exterior of your home. 
• Tree Damage: Nashville has plenty of beautiful foliage, but unfortunately, these trees can become dangerous during severe weather. Fallen trees or broken branches can break windows and let the elements in. If possible, it is a good idea to invest in storm-proof windows!
