What Are Some Winter Storm Safety Tips For My North Nashville Property?

1/3/2022 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of North Nashville advises area home and business owners to prepare their homes and property for the coming winter storm season. Extreme weather can lead to power outages and disruption of communications, and damage to personal and business property and belongings. Flooding and significant snow accumulations can create unsafe conditions for your family, workforce, or residents, so you must take the necessary precautions for winter storm safety. 

What Are Some Essential Tasks To Complete That Will Ensure Safe Conditions At My North Nashville Location? 

• Remove dead trees, tall bushes, and broken branches from around your home. These can cause injury and damage to the roof of your house or business location if they fall during a winter storm involving wind, ice, or heavy snow accumulation. 
• When the snow melts or during heavy rainfall, the water needs to flow down your rain gutters and away from your roofing easily. If there is dirt and debris left in your gutters from the previous season, the water will pool and begin to back up, possibly damaging interior wall spaces in your home. Such conditions can even lead to mold growth. 
• Have your chimney inspected and cleaned to prevent chimney fires. You will want to use your fireplace during cold weather and winter storms, so make sure it is in proper condition ahead of time.
• Your HVAC system needs to be inspected throughout the year, ensuring that ducts are clear and ready for use, and winter is no different. Change out all your filters in the system, as well.
