Prevent Water Damage Before It Happens

Water Damage in Denton Texas Spot the Signs of Water Damage Early

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

When it comes to water damage, preventing it or at least catching it early can be the difference between an inconvenience or a disaster. Here are some practical tips for preventing water damage to your home.

5 Things to Prevent Water Damage

  1. Loud pipes, visible rust, visible moisture on the floor or walls, or wet dirt around home can be signs of plumbing issues. If you see these things, don’t dismiss them, they can be the first signs of something more significant that is happening.
  2. When cold weather comes, don’t neglect your pipes. Be sure to let your faucets drip and take the time to insulate exposed pipes to avoid busted pipes.
  3. With new technology, the cost of a leak detection system is within reach for most homeowners. Getting an early warning can help prevent excessive water damage.
  4. Water is designed to flow in a singular direction and as long as pressure is sustained, you won’t have any issues. However, if that pressure ever fluctuates, there is the possibility of backflow into your home. Consider installing a backflow system in older homes to prevent sewage backup.
  5. Never pour grease down a drain! While it’s hot it will flow down those pipes but as it cools it solidifies, clogging your pipes and causing all kinds of trouble. Try pouring it in a jar and then discarding it afterwards.
