Has a Tornado Caused Damage to Your Home or Business?

When many people think about tornadoes, they often think of the U.S. Great Plains region, but the little known fact is that there were over 1,500 tornadoes reported in the United States last year.

Tornadoes are violently rotating columns of air from thunderstorms that reach the ground and cause significant damage to nearly anything in its path, with reported wind speeds of more than 200 mph at their most violent.

Tornadoes are very unpredictable and can move through an area quickly, leaving complete devastation in its path, or bounce from neighborhood to neighborhood, randomly wreaking havoc on portions of a city, while leaving other areas untouched.

When tornadoes touch down, the damages can include:

• Broken windows
• Destroyed concrete structures
• Downed trees and power lines
• Doors removed from hinges
• Ripped shingles and roofs
• Toppling vehicles
• Torn gutters
• Upended mobile homes

Additional damage from tornadoes can come from their strong winds and the flying debris they create. There is virtually no limit to the destruction that can occur during a tornado, which can include complete devastation to homes, businesses, and other property throughout the state.

These large-scale weather events can leave residents without homes or businesses in seconds, and when it is time to contact the insurance company to file a claim, StormClaim.com has an entire team devoted to getting you the recovery you deserve.
