Flood Protection refers to the measures, strategies, and infrastructure designed to minimize the risk and mitigate the impact of flooding on your property. These efforts aim to reduce the likelihood of flood-related damages, injuries, and loss of life, as well as to promote resilience and recovery in flood-prone areas.
The devastating impacts of Hurricanes Helene and Milton have shown that flood risk isn’t limited to coastal areas. These storms have highlighted a crucial gap that individuals and businesses need to be aware of: flood damage is generally not included in typical home, condo, renters, or commercial property insurance, making a separate flood insurance policy essential for true protection.
As winter approaches, it’s essential to take proactive steps to safeguard your home against potential ice, snow, and wind damage. Remember, starting the winterization process when the leaves change, not when snowfall begins, can significantly mitigate risks and ensure a safer, warmer, and more cost-effective living environment.
Snow has a high water content, posing flood risks if not managed properly. Implementing preventive measures can effectively mitigate potential flood issues caused by snow accumulation.
