At Servpro, we understand the concern and frustration that comes with water in your home or office, especially during heavy rainstorms. That's why we're here to offer some tips to help protect your home or business from water damage:
✓ Ensure proper drainage: It is crucial to keep gutters, downspouts, and drainage systems clean and clear to prevent water from pooling around your property.
✓ Seal cracks and gaps: We recommend inspecting your property for any cracks or gaps where water could seep in and promptly sealing them with caulk or sealant.
✓ Maintain your roof: Regularly checking for missing or damaged shingles on your roof and repairing them promptly can help prevent water leaks.
✓ Grade your areas of ladscaping: It's essential to ensure that your yard slopes away from your foundation to prevent water from collecting around it.
✓ Install a sump pump: Consider installing a sump pump in your basement or crawlspace to remove excess water effectively during heavy rain.
✓ Landscape wisely: Choose landscaping materials and plants that can help absorb excess water and prevent erosion around your property.
✓ Monitor indoor humidity: Using a dehumidifier can help maintain optimal indoor humidity levels and prevent moisture buildup, reducing the risk of water damage.
