Summer Storms On The Way

As the summer months start to roll around in Australia, the Bureau of Meteorology is warning of extreme weather events. This includes the likelihood of severe summer storms, which means now is the time to get prepared and ensure you have a plan for your properties if storms were to hit your area. At ETS, we work with clients to secure their properties, both before and after storms. Here are our tips on being storm-ready, and how we can help make the process a little easier.

Property Portfolio Vulnerabilities

Identifying vulnerabilities in your property portfolio is the first step in preparing for summer storms. These vulnerabilities can range from roofing issues and gutter blockages to aging trees and inadequately maintained structures. It’s essential to conduct a thorough assessment of your property assets and address potential trouble spots well in advance. Remember, routine maintenance and inspections are your best line of defence against storm-related damage.

Prioritise Preventative Maintenance

Once you’ve identified the vulnerabilities, be sure to start addressing them. Clear away debris and leaves that can obstruct gutters, as proper drainage is critical during heavy rainfall. If you’re not comfortable doing this yourself, or if there is further damage that will require professional help, you can reach out to ETS to safeguard your properties across the country. Remember, no matter how minor the repairs may seem, it’s important to address them now, as these can escalate during a storm.

Creating a Comprehensive Storm-Ready Plan

Developing a comprehensive storm-ready plan for your property portfolio is essential. If you’re in an area likely to be hit by extreme weather, be sure to assemble a storm kit with essential supplies like flashlights, batteries, first aid items, and non-perishable food items. Outline specific protocols for securing each property, such as reinforcing windows, anchoring outdoor objects, and turning off utilities if necessary. Again, ETS can help you carry out these make-safes if you are impacted by storms.
