Water damage doesn't wait for you to be in the office or warehouse. As a business owner this can be a pretty stressful part of your day to day operations. That's why at SERVPRO of the Attleboros, we're here all day every day.
We don't want you to wait until water damage happens to prepare for the worst, there are some steps you can take to prevent major water damage at your commercial Swansea property or business!
Checking for plumbing issues
A good indicator of plumbing issues is a change in your water bill. If you notice your bill is higher than normal, it could possibly be due to a leaky pipe.
Check the outside of your building
Water coming in from outside is another very common source of water damage. Check windows, doors and anything else exposed to the weather. If there are any gaps, be sure to seal them right away to prevent any damage.
Prepare for any severe weather
Keep an eye on the weather reports, especially during the winter and rainy seasons. Take any precautions to protect your building from any storm or water damage. For example, if there is flooding expected, purchasing sand bags would help!
Sump pumps
Installing a sump pump will give your building a place to drain any water that gets in the basement. This will be a great help in the case of any flooding into your basement. It will help you save on any costly repairs.
Inspect your roof
Regularly inspecting your roof (having a professional inspect) can catch any potential damage before it becomes a major problem.
These are just a few preventative measures you can take to protect your Swansea business from water damage. If you do encounter any damage, don't hesitate to give us a call at (508) 223-0505, we're here to help!!
