Homeowners can suffer much more than high heating bills and un shoveled sidewalks and streets after a blizzard. Conditions include high winds, ice and snow with plunging temperatures, you can find yourself in need of much more than a plowing contractor. Power lines and tree branches, heavy with ice and snow, can crush a home, allowing water and freezing winds inside. Count on SERVPRO of Burlington to help you.

When temperatures range above 32 degrees, rain and sleet can be the first round of what could turn into snow. Damage from all three can occur, this mixture of moisture weighs down trees and eventually freezes solid on power lines, frequently still above ground and supported by utility poles in the city. High winds increase the danger and probability of tree branches, light poles, and utility wires damaging your home severely if they fall.
