5/26/2020 (Permalink)

Storm safety tips are incredibly important, especially considering the large number of storms, flooding, the rain we’ve had over the past couple of weeks, months.

Storm and flood damage require specialized restoration techniques and equipment. And that’s where we come in.

Here are 3 storm safety tips in the event your home or business is hit with storm or flood damage.

Keep a Battery-powered Radio Nearby

Keeping a battery-powered radio nearby is a must, especially during a storm. As consumers, we’ve become so reliant on our mobile devices and landlines. But, what if they didn’t operate during a storm? What if they lost the signal? What would you do? It could be very scary. That’s why it is vital you keep a battery-powered radio in your home or business so you can tune to local radio stations if you lose electricity. During a storm, it’s incumbent to be in-the-know and stay well-informed for you and your family’s protection.

Check or Change Batteries Frequently

Make it a regime to check or change batteries (perhaps, once a month) of any device you would possibly need during a storm. This could range from a flashlight to radio to a remote control, etc. Never assume the batteries are working properly in any device. It’s always a good idea to test it frequently to ensure it’s functioning properly, that way, you’re well-prepared should a storm strikes.

Keep a Flashlight On-hand

It’s a good idea to keep a flashlight on-hand. And the key is to store it in an easily accessible spot on every floor of your home and/or business. Make sure everyone knows where they are stored. The last thing you want during a storm is for everyone to be frantically running around trying to locate the flashlight. Communication is key.
