In light of recent extreme winds and rains, crashing trees and branches and the pond-sized roadway puddles around the Sound, individuals should take preventative measures to ensure themselves, their cars and their homes against avoidable loss and inconvenience. A great source is the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) storm preparedness website: Take Winter by Storm.
Cleaning out leave debris from storm drains and gutters, ensuring your home’s yards and condominium’s decks have effective drainage and the any roof leaks or weak siding is promptly tended to, will keep property damage to a minimum.
If a power outage hits, or roadways are unnavigable and you are stuck at the office or home, ensure you have a proper “emergency” supply of blankets, water and food.
Finally, if you suffer damage in the storm that is an insurable loss, and your insurance company is denying coverage, contact The Filutowski Law Firm for help.
