Windstorms are a common cause of property damage in Los Serranos, and our local Chino/Chino Hills team is Here to Help ® when you sustain property damage from a windstorm. To minimize the chances of windstorm damage, property owners can take these preventative measures:

Secure Outdoor Items: Bring in or secure outdoor furniture, decorations, and other loose items that could become projectiles in high winds—store items like umbrellas, grills, and patio furniture in a garage or shed.

Trim Trees and Shrubs: Regularly trim trees and shrubs around the property to remove dead or overhanging branches that could potentially fall and cause damage during a windstorm.

Reinforce Doors and Windows: Install storm shutters and impact-resistant windows, or reinforce existing doors and windows with storm-resistant materials to protect against high winds and flying debris.

Strengthen Garage Doors: Reinforce garage doors to withstand high winds by installing braces or retrofitting with a stronger door. Ensure that garage door tracks are securely anchored to the structure.

Maintain Gutters and Drainage: Clean gutters and downspouts regularly to prevent blockages and ensure proper drainage. Properly functioning gutters can help prevent water damage during wind-driven rain.
