Home Damage in St. George

A home in St. George was damaged Saturday when a boulder toppled down Formaster Ridge, crashing into a bedroom in the backside of the home. While events like this don’t happen often, chances of it occurring again are possible. An increase in precipitation, as welcome as it is to our desert climate, can cause tremendous damage. This extra rain water wears down at the dirt holding many large rocks in place, leaving them vulnerable to becoming dislodged. An overage of rainfall can have other damaging effects on a home such as flooding and mold growth as well. Other causes such as erosion can have damaging effects on your home and the surrounding landscape. Erosion can wear down at the hills close to homes in St. George, leading to rockslides. It can also chip away at the exterior of your home, leaving it damaged or looking aged.
