Presentation Transcript

  1. Discovering that your home or business has water damaging it isn’t exactly the kind of surprise that makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. In fact, it can put quite the damper on your day, week, or month. Fortunately, there are some actions that can be taken to prevent this unwelcome surprise. At challis restoration near cedar rapids, we have five different suggestions on how you can prevent water damage to your home or business.

  2. Inevitably, over time, your rain gutters fill up with leaves, twigs, and other debris. When they become too full, they can stop effectively preventing water damage and start facilitating it. Clogged gutters can cause water to run down the side of the building, potentially harming the walls of the building. They can also cause leaky roofs. 

  3. In addition to cleaning out your rain gutters, it’s important to ensure that your downspouts end at least five feet, if not more, away from your home or business. If they aren’t at least five feet away, they will cause water to pool around the foundation of your house, putting it at risk for structural damage. If your downspouts are too short, consider looking into purchasing downspout extensions.

  4. Caulking is important because it helps seal gaps and prevent water from seeping into places it shouldn’t be. Check your caulking often, especially in areas where it is exposed to water regularly. If your caulking is cracked, promptly repair it so it can continue preventing water damage.
