Torrential rains have devastated your area, leaving you in disbelief. Your basement appears to look like something from a horror movie, belongings just floating in the water everywhere. As you begin to think of ways to remove the water, a thought comes to mind. What if this happens again, not what if, it will happen again. What can you do to help prevent water from flooding your home?
Creating a Robust Flood Protection Strategy: Sump Pumps
Sure, boarding up the windows and doors can help prevent flooding, but they can also be inadequate. Sump pumps, however, are increasingly becoming the new norm for homeowners with basements throughout the nation. As its name implies, sump pumps remove accumulated water from the lowest point of your home. Typically, a basin is created and the sump pump is placed there to help control flooding and to prevent water damage. Sump pump systems can also include backup power options to provide critical support.
Your Home’s Drainage System
So, you have decided to install a sump pump system for your home. What’s next? Your home’s drainage system will need to be assessed and inspected to not only prevent flooding but to also ensure that is it working optimally and efficiently. You may need tools like drain cameras, access rods, safety equipment, and others tools to perform tasks on your own.
