Storm damage in Orono, Minnesota

Severe storm on August 8 in Orono, MN

The severe wind in the Orono area on Saturday night left many trees blown down and houses damaged. 

After a storm, most affected neighborhoods are usually inundated with contractors who hire people to go door to door and try to get homeowners to sign a contract for any necessary repairs.  Many people sign up on the spot, without first checking out the company and without realizing they’re committing to have the work done by that company.  Many of these contractors are not really local companies.  They often rent an office space temporarily and hire doorknockers from the area.

Rather than signing up on the spot, one alternative is to check out local contractors that have worked in your area for years, not just during the last few storm seasons.  Checking with the Better Business Bureau and a referral service, like Angie’s List, would be a good start.

Dan Netko Exteriors has been in business for 30 years, providing storm damage repair, window replacement, and siding in the western and northern metro.  We are experienced at handling insurance claims from start to finish.

Shingles can be damaged by hail or high winds and windows and siding can be dented by hail or flying debris.

Have your home inspected by a contractor that has worked in your area for many years, has a high rating with the BBB, and is willing to give you names and addresses of satisfied customers nearby.
