Weathering the Storm

A quick list of things to do before, during, and after a severe weather event.​

DURING

  • Protect human life at all costs. ​
  • Don’t leave your home until the storm has passed. ​
  • Designate an interior location with no windows on the lowest level.​
  • Be aware that flooding can happen quickly. If you're home, turn off all electricity at the main breaker. Watch for rising water and move to higher ground if water approaches.​
  • Use a National Weather Receiver or other emergency alert service to hear updates.​

AFTER

  • After the storm has passed and it is safe to do so, assess possible damage.​
  • Prevent further damage to the best of your ability, including calling one of Slide's pre-approved emergency services vendors (list below).​
  • Should you need to file a claim, do so as soon as possible. Click here to get started.
  • Homeowners insurance does not cover flood. If you have flood or storm surge damage, contact your flood insurance provider. If you do not have a flood policy, contact FEMA.

Emergency Supplies & Go Bag Checklists

We’ve seen many emergency supply lists in our days, and they always seem either too much or too little. ​We wanted to create an emergency supply checklist that was just right.​

3 Ways to Protect Yourself from Contractor Fraud

Prep your property for a storm.

  • Secure or bring inside any unattached items that could be tossed by a high wind. Items such as trash cans, patio furniture, and potted plants.​
  • Trim and remove tree branches that are close to your home.​
  • Protect windows with storm shutters or plywood sheeting.​
  • Clean out drains, gutters, and downspouts.​
  • ​Take photos and/or videos of your home, both inside and outside, to document your contents and home features. This will help accelerate the claims process should you need to file a claim.
  • Inspect screened enclosures and pool cages to ensure the integrity of all fasteners, cables, footings, and anchors. If you need help with this task, reach out to a licensed contractor.
