When the catastrophic pre-Christmas hail storm hit David Dobson\u2019s home, late afternoon on 20 December 2018, he was home with his family and his sister-in-law too. In all, six kids endured the storm that produced hail the size of \u201csoftballs\u201d.<\/h2>\n

His house, which is an older design, endured significant roof damage with hundreds of tiles smashed and every room affected.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a scary afternoon but luckily the kids had been through a large hailstorm before so knew what to expect, but half an hour of the barrage seemed like a lifetime,\u201d David said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the storm came through nearly each hail stone was the size of a softball so the noise was intense and we took shelter in the lounge room, staying clear of the windows, watching it all unfold.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But it wasn\u2019t long before the damage was evident and hail began to invade David\u2019s home.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithin five minutes hail was pounding through the roof, the main focus being our new bathroom which had a skylight that got smashed, letting the elements in. Nearly all our solar panels were smashed too and water was pouring through my daughters\u2019 wardrobe like a waterfall,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

When the first storm finally subsided David acted quickly. Using his own tarps, kept for camping, he climbed on the roof and covered most of the damaged areas until lightning and a second storm stopped him going further.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had at least got some tarps up and some tiles back on too until I saw the next storm coming and I had to get off the roof, I then got back to the job of emptying buckets filling up rapidly in the house as the rain fell.\u201d \u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

David was lucky with his insurer \u2013 Youi \u2013 which came immediately the next day and arranged for Stormseal to be installed to protect the damage.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough it was booked they couldn\u2019t put Stormseal up straight away and my tarps flew off several times as more bad weather followed, so we kept the State Emergency Services busy as they were the ones who came back to help,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce Stormseal was on though we felt secure and protected, there has been no elements getting in since.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWe feel lucky that our insurer took swift action and had Stormseal on before New Year, which unfortunately was not the case for some neighbours who still have holes in their roofs 11 weeks later. One lady who is 86 and lives alone, has had her tarps fly off numerous times and is still awaiting repairs, it\u2019s sad to see,\u201d said David.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do feel secure with Stormseal installed and a lot of the neighbours with damage have asked me about my new orange roof, so explained that our insurer was the one that offered it to us and they should speak to their own insurer to get it fitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo many people have had to have their tarps refitted many times but with Stormseal you know once it\u2019s up it\u2019s there to stay \u2013 tarps and Stormseal are truly like chalk and cheese!\u201d<\/p>\n

If you and your family are still living under a tarp, ask your insurer for Stormseal. More info here<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
