Flood Prevention Tips
for Homeowners
In addition to heavy rains or other outside occurrences,
leaks and other plumbing problems can also lead to floods in the home. Although
you cannot predict a flood, you can take steps to prevent one. Talk to your Plano plumbing service about
your flood risk and how you can protect your home from water damage.
Schedule a Plumbing
Inspection
When was the last time you had your home’s plumbing
inspected from top to bottom? Over time, wear and tear can put your plumbing at
risk for leaks and other issues that may cause a flood. Having a professional
plumber fully assess your home for flood risks can provide you with the
information you need to make repairs and prevent a flood from occurring.
Install a Sump Pump
and Alarm
A sump pump is a valuable flood prevention device that
activates automatically in the presence of excess water. Sump pump systems are
installed in the lowest point in your home—typically the basement—and pump
water away from your home in the event of a flood. Installing a sump
pump alarm will notify you when the water level in your home is above
acceptable limits.
