The answer may come to you a surprise, but the answer is yes. Excluding natural disasters, there are ways you can protect your home and business from flooding your property.

I started in this business 8 years ago selling a automatic valve that once hooked up to your main water valve, you would place sensors throughout your home in areas that were prone to water leakage. The spots we put them were the sinks and toilet’s, the dishwasher and water heater. Because those Tadalis SX seemed to be the most common, and we wanted to save some money, that seemed the best places to have them. The great thing is, we turned them on, plug them in, and really forgot we ever had them.

Fast forward some 3 plus years later, we returned home from vacation to find everything seeming normal, however when I went to wash my hand there was no water. I noticed to my left that the toilet had a small crack in the back and there was a small puddle of water on my floor. What had happened, is while we were gone the toilet must have cracked and once that water hit the sensors, the main valve to our home was now shut off.

We immediately called out our plumber to fix the toilet, and he brought up how many times that this happens to people every day. And we were really grateful to have that system in our house to save us from who knows how many family heirlooms that would have been destroyed.

But sometimes it is too late when your home floods, develops mold/mildew, or even have a fire. It are those times that you need to be prepared to search for a local water damage expert to come to your home immediately to help get that water our as soon as possible. Just getting the water out, and the fans on, could save you thousands of dollars.

If you find yourself in this situation with no one to call, you can go to your local Home Depot and get a water pump and fans from them. Ideally you would like to get as much of the water out as quickly as possible. After you have completed getting the water out, you will now want to pull up your carpet so you can blow dry from underneath.

This is one of the most important parts, and why you want to act quickly, and those are the silent killers in our homes called mold/mildew. Cialis So getting it as clean and dry as quickly as you can is the key. Always call out a water damage specialist, as they can work with you and your insurance to get your home/business back to the way it was.
