4 Tips To Protect Your Home From Flooding

7/13/2020 (Permalink)

Flooding is the leading cause of damage to homes. Other than being prepared to evacuate in case of a flood, there are several things you can do to your Pickens County home to minimize water damage. We made a list of simple steps you can take to keep your home safe. 

  1. Seal any cracks in your foundation: Use mortar or masonry caulk to fill in any gaps in the foundation.
  2. Have your lawn graded away from your home: If you notice rainwater pooling around your foundation, your yard may be tilted towards your home. 
  3. Install a flood sensor: A flood sensor can detect a small leak before it can cause significant damage. 
  4. Relocate your expensive or sentimental items to higher ground: If floodwaters are coming, move your valuables to higher areas to protect them. 

 If you have flood damage call SERVPRO of Pickens County (864) 855 - 3993!
