Did you know that 22% of homes in the UK are damaged on an annual basis by storms? 😱 Considering most homes are smaller than the buildings you manage and work in, the risk of storm damage can be much greater the larger the building. This also increases the need for qualified specialists to conduct any maintenance, this is where Complete Access Services can help… This week we are already out following up storm Bert with regular maintenance and safety checks with our current clients. Have you reviewed how safe your building is recently? If you haven’t reviewed your buildings safety in the last six months, it could be well overdue.

Storm Darragh is here, so please stay safe and follow these important tips: - Secure outdoor furniture, wheelie bins and Christmas decorations as the high winds continue throughout the day – they can become hazards, breaking windows or blocking roads. - If you must drive, watch out for debris on the road and slow down. - Allow extra time for your journey and keep a safe distance from the car ahead. - Never drive through floodwater – it's not worth the risk! - Be extra cautious on exposed roads, especially near the coast or on hilltops. - If conditions worsen, consider staying off the roads unless absolutely necessary. Your safety is the priority. More advice can be found at: https://lnkd.in/eTnWd6FA

Secure Loose Items: Check balconies and outdoor areas for loose items such as furniture, planters, or decorations. Secure or remove anything that could become a hazard in high winds. 2️. Check Windows and Doors: Ensure all windows and doors are properly closed and locked to prevent damage and keep out strong winds or rain. 3️. Inspect Vulnerable Areas: If possible, inspect any weak or exposed areas of your property to address potential risks before the storm hits.

Protecting Your Roof from Storm Damage Regular Inspections: Have your roof inspected before storm season to identify weak spots that could become damaged during heavy winds or rain. Trim Trees: Keep branches away from your roof to prevent them from falling and causing damage. Secure Loose Shingles: Make sure all shingles are tightly fastened to avoid them being blown away in high winds. Clean Gutters: Ensure your gutters are clear of debris to prevent water from backing up and causing leaks. Install Storm-Resistant Features: Consider adding storm-resistant features such as impact-resistant shingles or additional roof anchors. Reinforce Flashing: Make sure the flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights is securely fastened to prevent water from seeping in during a storm. Need help preparing your roof for storm season?
