Storm Damage in Stone Mountain, Georgia

After long periods of drought, the roots of trees are often weakened making the tree is more susceptible to being pushed over by strong winds.  This home in Stone Mountain, GA took a direct hit from a tree that fell during a late summer thunderstorm.  Fortunately, nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the inside of the home.  SERVPRO crews arrived on site within one hour to tarp the roof and assess the damage.  When large objects such as trees fall into or on a building or home, it is always smart to play it safe and stay out of the building until the damage is looked at by a structural engineer,
