When it Rains it Pours

During spring and summer weather events can influence your business.  Wind with heavy rain can cause water damage to your building.  Having previous leaks repaired is a good idea before severe weather hits in your area.  Leaking windows and doors can cause damage and weaken the structure of your building.  Make sure the shingles on the roof are secure to keep your roof from leaking.  The exterior wall should be inspected for any cracks.  Cracks can lead to moisture in the building and a great opportunity for mold to grow.  Basements are a great concern when it comes to rising flood waters.  Taking precautions such as flood shields against the windows and doors of your basement can prevent damage from the rising waters.

Lightning is dangerous and can strike your building or cause trees to fall after being struck.  A lightning protection system can be installed to protect your building.  The rods intercept the voltage and send the current into the ground.  The protection system minimizes the risk of fires and electrical surges to your property.  In case of a power outage you should have a generator on hand.

Disasters can strike in many different forms and cause havoc on a business.  The sooner a plan is in place the less damage that will be sustained.  Your local SERVPRO professionals are highly trained and available for your mitigation needs 24/7.  We are dedicated to responding immediately to water and storm damage.  Our SERVPRO professionals are not only trained in structural mitigation but contents damaged by storms and other water events.  Their expertise and “restore” versus “replace” mentality can help you save money while preserving precious keepsakes that can’t be replaced.
