 Storms can cause significant property damage in an instant, leaving homeowners in Cobb County dealing with everything from water intrusion to structural issues. At SERVPRO® of Southwest Cobb, we understand how overwhelming storm damage can be, and that’s why we’re Here to Help®.  

Common Causes of Storm Damage

Storms bring a variety of elements that can harm your property:

  1. Heavy Rain and Flooding
    Prolonged or heavy rainfall can lead to flooding, roof leaks, and water pooling around the foundation. Over time, water damage can compromise your home’s structural integrity and lead to mold growth if not properly addressed.

  2. High Winds and Tree Falls
    High winds can rip off shingles, damage siding, and cause trees to fall on homes. Tree falls often result in broken roofs, shattered windows, and significant structural issues that require immediate attention.

  3. Ice and Snow
    During winter storms, ice and snow can build up on roofs, leading to ice dams. These ice dams prevent proper drainage, causing water to seep into the home and damage ceilings and walls.

  4. Hail
    Hailstorms can break windows, dent roofs, and damage siding. Even minor hail damage can worsen over time, leading to costly repairs if left untreated.
