Warmer Temps and Rain Could Mean Snow Melt and A Flooded Basement
We've all seen our kid's snowmen melt. So, it's no surprise the snow melts when the temperatures rise. And homeowners are now correlating such changes with flooded basements. But, wouldnât it be great if this year you didn't have to fear whether your basement would fill up with water?
Well, looking at the facts, it'd seem almost impossible to avoid flood damage, especially after this winter. But, even though we know that a cubic foot of snow is equivalent to 4.5 quarts of water, Leader Basement Systems believes our basements can be safe!
Craig Leader, owner of Leader Basement Systems, spoke with the Telegram and offered readers some advice.
1. Be prepared, because once temperatures reach the 40s and some rain falls, things will get messy. Waterproofing works!
2. Locate the low spots in your basement and stack things high so as to prevent water damage.
3. If you had water seepage last year, you WILL have damage this year. Call Leader today!
"Our phones have been ringing off the hook with people freaking out because they know they're going to flood this year. You can't put it down without it ringing again," said Craig Leader.
