10 Tips to Avoid Indoor Flooding(*)

There are ways to protect yourself against costly water losses and claims. Follow these ten easy tips to keep your home safe and well-maintained:

Outside:
1. Disconnect Hoses
Standing water in a hose may freeze back into the pipe and create an ice block that – in a best case scenario – stops your water flow and, worst case, may bust your pipes and create damage to walls, floor and foundation.
2. Clean Gutters and Downspouts
Clean your gutters at least twice a year to avoid blockage and ice dams. Standing water can cause damage to your gutters and roof, and unmanaged overflow may create puddles that could damage your foundation. Don’t forget to clean downspouts to ensure water can flow through, and secure downspouts so that they point away from the home.
3. Maintain Trees and Vegetation
Thriving shrubs can be a beautiful thing – except when their roots wrap around your pipes and break them. That’s why it’s important to minimize landscaping near utility pipes or, if necessary, remove trees and shrubs that have become too big.

Water Extraction And Drying - Indoor Flooding

 If you have the misfortune of experiencing a flood in your home caused by a rupture of a water line,  rain penetration from  a storm, appliance malfunctioning, or any other other accidents, you would need to act rapidly to prevent major damages to the structure, walls and floors of your home.

 If not addressed promptly flooding can  present serious health issues, as mold grows and spores are released into the air where they can easily be inhaled.

Our technicians can respond quickly to help mitigate the impact of the humidity and the proliferation of mildew and mold, reducing further damage.

    - Water extraction process

We use industrial-strength water extractors capable of suctioning  massive amounts of water in a short period of time.  Also, a water claw is used to gain access to small and narrow out-of-the-way spaces and minimize the impact on carpets, pads, flooring and walls.

- Monitoring and Drying-Out Process

Immediately after the water has been sucked out of the house, our technicians will place specialized air movers (industrial strength fans) to withdraw moisture from the subflooring and other infrastructure elements. These air movers are placed strategically to maximize the air circulation. Dehumidifiers extract air moisture and regulate the moisture content.

 We complete our process with a thorough inspection of all flooded areas and spaces to ensure all  signs of moisture have been removed.
