🌧️ Rain in the Forecast? Don’t Forget to Check Your Drainage! 🏡💧
Before the rain hits, take a quick walk around your property to make sure everything’s ready. A few minutes now can save you from costly water damage later!
🔹 Gutters & Downspouts: Clean 'em out and make sure water flows away from your house.
🔹 Yard Drainage: Look for standing water — your yard should slope away from your foundation.
🔹 Check Grates & Drains: Clear any debris from catch basins, French drains, or storm drains nearby.
🔹 Basements & Window Wells: Make sure they're sealed, covered, and draining properly.
🔹 Driveways & Patios: Watch for low spots where water collects.
Pro tip: Extend downspouts at least 5–10 feet from your house!
Stay dry and flood-free! 💪🌧️
