Where severe weather is concerned in Kettering, most homeowners here have either filed a storm claim or watched a neighbor do it, so checking after an event is worth doing even when nothing looks wrong.
Weather
Roofs in Kettering age on a specific clock: the Miami Valley runs the same freeze-thaw cycling as the rest of the state, with a longer and more violent severe-storm season layered on top.
What You Should Not Do
- Do not climb onto a wet or storm-damaged roof
- Do not sign anything with a crew that knocked on your door after the storm
- Do not let anyone throw away damaged materials before they are photographed
- Do not wait for the adjuster before stopping active water. Insurers expect you to prevent further damage.
