December 06,2023Most natural disasters affect homes in one way or another. Most destructive natural disasters for homes are usually severe weather-related, such as hurricanes, snowstorms, and thunderstorms. When the land can’t hold that much water, your home faces the risk of flooding. Additionally, if very strong winds hit your roof, they can damage the roof tiles and therefore cause rain to enter your home. As a homeowner, knowing the extreme weather possibilities of the area you live in is crucial to take extra caution during these natural disasters.
The most common source of water damage is the leaks in your plumbing system. Many plumbing systems are prone to damage, especially in older homes, and unfortunately, detecting these is quite hard for many homeowners. Therefore, watch out for some common signs of a leak, such as stains, moisture, unusually high-water bills, wet sounds, mold or mildew, and low water pressure. If these symptoms aren’t recognized early, you can never know when to face huge water damage that can cause damage to your walls and even the foundation of your home.
A lot of people aren’t aware of the silent threat to the foundation of their home: old and faulty appliances. If the lines of these appliances are damaged, or if there are clogged drains, the bad water connection can create serious damage eventually. Basically, any device that has a direct connection to your water lines is at risk, but two of the major ones are water heaters and washing machines. If you feel like your devices are aging, find the right time to replace them before it creates damage.
If you have a septic tank at your home, you must be double careful. That’s because when there’s excessive rain or if the tank fills up, it can overflow. When this happens, all the waste from various parts of your home backs up and reaches inside your home. Aside from the fact that this can create serious damage to the foundation of your home, it will also cause serious hygienic problems since the waste that you’re trying to get rid of will be inside your home and can even cause health problems. It is a direct health hazard, so it must be taken care of immediately by professionals.
