It looks like the next few days will be very wet with heavy rain showers and 1” -2” of rain accumulation. There are several simple chores you can do to prevent water from entering your home and causing damage. This includes the following:
- Keep those gutters and leaders clean from leaves, twigs, and other debris as water can back up and overflow into your home causing serious damage and mold.
- Cover your window wells. This will keep water from flowing over and into basement windows.
- Pipe out leaders away from foundation a minimum of 5’-10’ from home.
Clean out and maintain landscape drainage catch basins. The less resistance rain water has to flow away from home the dryer your home and basement will be.
