4 Simple Steps You Can Take To Keep Your Business Safe During A Flood!

Floods, heavy rainfall, and stormy weather can put any business at risk for closing. The best way to limit business interruption after bad weather is to prepare your business for it. Follow these simple steps to protect your South Greenville  business from bad weather.  

1. Clear Gutters: Clogged gutters can overflow and flood your roof. Remove sticks, leaves, and other debris that could cause a clog. Ensure your gutters are securely fastened to the building. 
2. Cut Back Trees: Cut back any tree limbs before bad weather. This prevents the possibility of loose branches falling into the building during high winds or rain. 
3. Back-Up Data:  Before any bad weather starts, back up important data. Many businesses have a server dedicated to storing their content as a precautionary measure. 
4. Make a Flood Dam: Use sandbags to create a flood dam. This will protect your business from being flooded with blackwater.

If your business floods during a storm, don't hesitate to call SERVPRO of SERVPRO of South Greenville County (864) 292 - 3137. We will make it, "Like it never even happened."
