Water damage: Simple tips for repairs & restorations

In our everyday life, we might forget to look after certain household maintenance which could lead to problems. There are many scenarios that may cause water damage. The following could be the reasons:

• Leaking or Overflowing sinks, bathtubs, toilets or pipes
• Backed up sewage and septic tank lines
• Heavy rain or storms

But no matter what be the reason, it is small steps that make a big change. Here are a few simple tips that you can implement at home:

• Clean and maintain your gutter and drains

Make sure to get half-yearly checks on your household drainage system to avoid cracks or blockage of pipes by leaves and roots. Also have your roof annually checked for cracks or pooling of water.

• Don’t pour grease down the drain

Pouring grease or any oily substance down the drain cause blockages and can cling to pipes. Even if you rinse your sink with hot water, it would not help much.

• Install backflow valves and standpipes

By installing this mechanism, it automatically prevents sewage spills or water damage from entering your surroundings.
