Start Preparing Now For Wet Weather Ahead

12/22/2020 (Permalink)

With Cold weather comes the potential for flooding, structural leaks, and wind driven rains.  To help reduce the likelihood of your home or business receiving water damages, take precautionary measures now:

• Clean out roof gutters and downspouts. Clogged gutters allow water to back up onto your roof, increasing the chance of water intrusion into your home or business.
• Know Your Zone. Determine your flood zoning and prepare appropriately.  If you live in a flood prone zone, preparing sandbags may be necessary to help protect your structure.  
• Follow guidance of local officials. Just as in a  flash flooding and heavy thunderstorms or snow storm can cause the potential need for evacuation.  Follow the instruction given by local officials to keep yourself and your loved ones safe.
