This winter weather has affected several businesses and homes. Damage to your home and business affects not just you, your family or your staff. With the right winter weather preparation, you can get your home, office and staff back on their feet faster. Find out how to protect your offices and employees this season with winter weather preparedness tips:

1. Check your HVAC System. It's vital to inspect and prepare your HVAC unit to keep it working properly. Check and change filters, repair anything broken, and cover any outdoor units not being used. Having a professional inspect units, and specifically their ventilation, before turning on the heat for the first time can help avoid unexpected issues down the line.
2. Inspect Insulation. Inspecting for compromised areas where heat loss can occur can help get ahead of problems once the cold temperatures set in.
3. Prepare Plumbing. Frozen or burst pipes can cause so much stress and chaos. Check that all freeze-protection devices and alarms are in working order.
4. Check your Roofing. Look for loose or missing shingles and prepare before winter. Having a sound roof is important for preventing leaks and other damages from snowmelt. A strong roof is more capable of withstanding vicious winter weather.
5. Have a Disaster Plan in Place. Plan for various disasters. Winter is brutal in many states, but you can help alleviate some of the potential damages by following through on these simple steps and having a plan in place for what to do and who to call if the worst happens.

The winter weather is here; make sure you know who to call if you are impacted in any way. As an industry leader in water mitigation, we can quickly restore your business or home to its original condition. If extreme cold temperatures, frozen/burst pipes, ice dams, collapsed roofs, or flooding causes damage to your property, call 844-993-0527.
