storm cleanup responsibility

I am still new to this game, and have a SFR in Melbourne, which was mildly affected by Irma, and I am curious what everyone does for storm cleanup in regards to tenant vs landlord responsibilities.

My rental house had some porch roll roof peeled off, the wood fence blew over and a shutter came off.  The tenant is ok chopping up the fence and dragging it to the street. I offered to remount the shutter but he said he has tapcons so no problem hanging it.  I am expecting to knock some rent off for him to fix the roof, he is in construction and does work himself and we had previously discussed him handling things that come up himself.

Looking for general discussion, not necessarily specific feedback.

How does everyone typically handle this sort of situation?
