As the winds of Spring blow out the last of the winter weather many homeowners and businesses experience significant wind damage to their dwellings and personal property. Wind, though you cannot see it, can cause considerable damage to your home. Wind speeds of 47 mph and above can start to cause light structural damage to your home while wind speeds reaching 55 mph or above can uproot trees and inflict greater structural damage.
