Basement flooding is normally due to natural occurrences like tornados, hail storms and hurricanes. These are experienced during the warm months season which enable it to cause devastating damages to property and infrastructure. Whereas nature is unpredictable, there are a few techniques one can use to prevent storm damage.

How homeowners can not be victims of flood damage

1. Pruning the hedges

Keeping all tree branches from the roof is certainly one sure way of avoiding roof damage. Friction from a leaning branch as well as the rooftop may cause holes in case of a wind surge. It is usually great for cut any weak branches that could fall off.

2. Keeping the top free from stagnant water

In the event it rains, water should certainly rundown the roof over the gutters. If getting older, water stagnates and slowly begins to weaken the cover. Removing fallen leaves through the water pipes helps you to save a property owner big money doing roof repairs.

3. Keeping a highly ventilated attic

During hail storms, ice accumulates on rooftops and one and only thing saving the rooftop from collapsing is the hot air emanating from the attic. If the evaporation does not occur, there's an imminent risk of water getting yourself into your property with the shingles. To stop this from happening, it is advisable to have a skilled professional come check the ventilation with your attic prior to storm begins.

4. Make water-tight all openings

Water from storms could possibly get to your home through many openings for example the chimneys and skylights. Sealants which have decayed must be repaired with silicone or tar to prevent water leakages. Door and window sealants can also let water in as they weaken with time.

5. Monitoring power cables

It is just a common occurrence for several utilities like electricity being interrupted when storms emerge. This may be because of winds weighing down on tree branches and entangling all of them with electricity or telephone lines. To prevent this, always trim tree branches that are growing towards utility supply lines. Keep in mind to cut down weak trees that seem to be swaying precariously near electricity or telephone lines.

Each time a storm occurs and your home remains intact because of the above techniques, the next step is to access the problem around your home. Trees will be the most unlucky and suffer the brunt of these natural occurrences.

Restoration after damage


1. Avoid panicking

Don't start reducing the trees in panic just because you imagine they might drop later. As time goes by, you will know those that must go.

2. Fake experts

Timber can be a valuable commodity and there'll always emerge some fellows claiming being tree experts. These 'experts' will request you to let them have permission to cut down the trees and carry them away for research. Try not to be fooled by them.

3. Taking care of the residual trees

As a final point, employ the assistance of a certified tree professional. He/she will highlight how to care for your surviving trees and protect them down the road from storm damage.
