Downtown Chicago Businesses Trust Us to Restore Winter Storm Damage?
1/16/2024 (Permalink)
SERVPRO® of Downtown Chicago/Team Zubricki is a leader in commercial storm damage restoration services. Downtown Chicago is known for its harsh winters, and can experience several types of winter storms that have the potential to cause significant commercial property damage:
Snowstorms: Heavy snowfall can accumulate on rooftops, making them susceptible to damage, especially if the snow is wet and heavy.
Ice Storms: Freezing rain can create ice accumulations on surfaces, including roads, walkways, and buildings. Ice accumulation on power lines and trees can lead to power outages and falling branches, potentially causing damage to roofs, windows, and exterior structures.
Blizzards: Blizzards combine heavy snowfall with strong winds, reducing visibility and causing drifting snow. This can lead to blocked entrances and exits, damage to windows and doors, and disruption of business operations.
Ice Dams: Ice dams can block proper drainage, causing water to back up under roofing materials and potentially lead to leaks and interior damage.
Lake-effect Snow: Chicago's proximity to Lake Michigan can result in lake-effect snow, which can bring intense, localized snowfall and accumulations. This heavy snow can stress roofs and create challenges for property access and maintenance.
Windstorms: Strong winds, often associated with winter storms, can cause structural damage, such as torn-off roofing materials, broken windows, and damage to exterior signs and fixtures.
