2/28/2023 (Permalink)

Lightning strikes and causes a power outage. We respond to storm damage emergencies 24 hours a day in Albemarle County.

Our local team in Charlottesville is on call 24 hours a day, and we usually arrive onsite within four hours of your call for help when you have a storm damage emergency in Scottsville. Here are some tips for protecting yourself during a power outage from the Federal Emergency Management Agency:

  • Keep freezers and refrigerators closed
  • Only use generators outdoors and away from windows
  • Do not use a gas stove to heat your home
  • Disconnect appliances and electronics to avoid damage from electrical surges
  • Use alternate plans for refrigerating medicines or power-dependent medical devices
  • If safe, go to an alternate location for heat or cooling
  • Check on neighbors

When your home or business suffers damage from wind or other severe weather, our storm damage response team has the training, equipment, and experience to secure your property quickly and efficiently. As soon as we arrive, we will board and tarp up any areas of the structure exposed to the elements to prevent further damage. We can supervise a full range of building and reconstruction services to restore a property to pre-damage condition.
