Our Mundelein and North Wauconda teams are leaders in storm damage restoration services. Severe thunderstorms can cause a wide array of damage to homes, depending on the intensity of the storm and local conditions. Some common types of damage include:

Wind Damage: Strong winds associated with severe thunderstorms can damage roofs, siding, windows, and doors. In extreme cases, high winds can even collapse entire structures.

Hail Damage: Hailstones, which are balls of ice formed in thunderstorms, can range in size from small pellets to large chunks. They can cause dents, cracks, or holes in roofs, siding, windows, and vehicles.

Flooding: Heavy rainfall during severe thunderstorms can lead to flooding, causing water damage to basements, crawl spaces, and ground-level rooms. Floodwaters can also damage electrical systems, appliances, and personal belongings.

Lightning Strikes: Lightning can cause fires by striking homes directly or igniting flammable materials such as dry vegetation or roofing. Electrical surges from lightning strikes can also damage electronic devices and appliances.

Tornado Damage: Severe thunderstorms can produce tornadoes, which can cause catastrophic damage to homes and other structures. Tornadoes can destroy buildings, uproot trees, and toss debris over long distances.

Tree Damage: Strong winds and lightning strikes can cause trees to fall onto homes, vehicles, and power lines, resulting in significant damage and potential safety hazards.
