Before the flood

Notes:

  • Stockpiling:

    Before the flood even comes, be sure to know how to prepare for an unexpected flash flood ahead of time to beat the storm. You don’t want to be stuck without the necessities or emergency gear you need. You can stockpile emergency building materials like plywood, a hammer, and nails to be ready for any damage or destruction during the flood.

  • You can stockpile emergency building materials like plywood, a hammer, and nails to be ready for any damage or destruction during the flood.
  • Prepare for outages and drainage:

    Have a backup generator ready in case the storm knocks out your power, and secure any important documents or items that could get destroyed or washed away in the event of your house flooding, like your home deed and insurance policies.

  • You should also check your driveway drainage systems to ensure proper draining. In the meantime, pull any outdoor belongings inside. Lastly, make sure you have an emergency kit with you at all times.
  • More informatin about good drainage:
    • Drainage Infographic:

      When it rains, you can expect the water to drain properly around your home and throughout your yard. But what if it doesn’t?

The flood comes

Notes:

  • During the storm, it’s good to be aware of your surroundings and your community. It’s best to try to stay calm, not only for yourself but for those who might be living with you.
  • Do not leave your home unless your community officials tell you to seek a flood shelter. Move furniture and secure down anything that might get washed away if the flood enters your home.
  • There may be minor floods you need to address:
    • Basement Flooding:

      The last you need is a basement flood. It does so much damage and takes a lot of energy to clean it up. So what can you do to prevent it?

If relocation occurs

Notes:

  • If you must relocate, pack overnight bags, turn off your power, water, and gas, and lock up your home. Make sure you have your mobile phone with you at all times to stay in contact with others and keep yourself updated on any flash flood news.
  • Another tip is to place valuables and other smaller items up high to prevent them from being washed away or destroyed. Lastly, empty all fridges and freezers and leave the doors open, placing sandbags over drainage to prevent sewer backflow.
  • Getting your kit ready:
    • Having Your 72-hour Kit:

      Something can strike anytime that will force you out of your home. It could be a floor, chemical spill, tornado, or other disaster. Do you have a 72 hour kit?

After the flood

Notes:

  • Once the flash flood has receded, be sure to check throughout your home for any damage, electrical issues, and gas leakages. Critters can sometimes accidentally wash into your home, so try to remove them from your home safely.
  • Avoid using any toilets or drinking water from your tap if they were damaged—instead, contact your local utility company. Be sure to boil water if you need it. Lastly, check your basement and get any excess water pumped out.
  • Cleaning up after a flood:
    • Expect Mold Growth:

      The presence of mold in your home is not something that you should ignore by any means. Mold can cause a myriad of different health conditions, including some severe illnesses.

    • Mold will also ruin the value of your home and can cause irreversible damage. Therefore, you should make a serious effort to prevent mold and remove it if it appears.
    • Prepare For Other Disasters: Reasons Why Mold Remediation Is Crucial
    • Other Disasters to Prepare For:

      When owning a house in the USA, it is likely that you will be in the vicinity of an area prone to one of the five natural disasters outlined below. Due to the rapidly rising effects of climate change, it is also likely that the chances of disasters happening will increase.

    • While this can seem rather scary, there is no need to worry as this guide will clearly outline the types of natural disasters to look out for and how to protect your house against them.
    • view post: Five Natural Disasters to Protect Your House Against
  • FINAL REMARKS
