1. Safety First: Assessing the Situation
Check for Hazards: Before entering or approaching your home, assess the surroundings for any potential hazards such as downed power lines, unstable structures, or gas leaks. Ensure your family members and pets remain safe by avoiding dangerous areas.
Inspect for Damage: Carefully inspect your home for any visible signs of damage, both inside and outside. Look for roof damage, broken windows, and structural issues that may compromise the safety of your home.
2. Documenting Damage and Contacting Professionals
Document Damage: Take photos or videos of the damage to your property for insurance purposes. Document any visible damage to your roof, windows, siding, and personal belongings. This documentation will be crucial when filing insurance claims.
