Planning for a Potential Storm Loss

Call SERVPRO of Limestone & Lawrence Counties to assist in any Hurricane or Tropical Storm Damage!

Hurricane peak season runs for the months of July, August and September. Now is a great time to start thinking about your preparedness efforts, in the event of a hurricane or strong storm.

After experiencing last year’s more active than normal hurricane season, Property Managers in Limestone & Lawrence Counties should prepare in case we are threatened by inclement weather.

Here are some tips

• Plan ahead
• Come up with a “Playbook.” The playbook or manual should include employees’ phone numbers, emergency contacts, who is responsible for what, etc.
• Talk with your employees and determine who will be considered essential personnel
• Have a meeting with the building owners and then meet with tenants to inform them of the action plan in case of inclement weather
• Prepare an evacuation route and post it throughout the building
• Think about implementing an automated email, text, or voicemail message to keep your tenants/employees informed
• Have all the insurance information up to date and keep it in a safe place
• If evacuation is mandatory, nobody should remain in the building
