Yamhill Home Suffers Wind Damage in Recent Storm?
2/28/2023 (Permalink)
Our local team in Yamhill and Tillamook Counties responds to wind and storm damage emergencies every year in Yamhill. Here are some tips for protecting your property from wind damage from the Federal Emergency Management Agency:
Secure Fencing, Porches, Canopies, and Sheds
Have them inspected and make sure they are firmly attached and in sound structural condition. Secure any parts of fencing that appear weak or loose.
Anchor Any Fuel Tanks and External Utility Links
If you have an exterior fuel tank or any utilities located outside, anchor or tie them down according to the ground anchor instructions. This will help reduce the risk of them overturning and sliding.
Replace Gravel and Rock Landscaping Materials
Rock and gravel materials can cause serious damage during a severe wind event. Gravel has been found in mailboxes during very strong wind events and has even shredded vinyl siding. Replace these materials with a softer material, such as mulch or dirt.
