Spring and summer bring NSW's peak storm season and for strata buildings, that means real risk to common property if preparation is left too late.
What to check now:
✅ Roof and gutter condition — blocked gutters are a leading cause of storm-related water damage
✅ Tree branches and overhanging vegetation near buildings or car parks
✅ Balcony drainage — make sure water can actually flow away, not pool
✅ Emergency contact list — is it current, and do residents know who to call after hours?
✅ Insurance policy — confirm your building is adequately covered for storm and water damage before, not after, an event
Storm damage claims spike every year in this period and buildings that prepared in advance recover faster and face fewer disputes over liability.
A proactive pre-storm-season checklist, reviewed with your strata manager, not scrambled together after the first major storm hits.
At Strata United, storm season preparation is part of our standard seasonal planning, not an afterthought.
