Our San Diego City, South West team is a leader in storm damage restoration services. Heavy rains have been known to cause significant property damage in Encanto, so taking some steps to prepare for inclement weather may help prevent or minimize property damage from stormwater intrusion.

Start by inspecting your roof for missing or damaged shingles and repairing them to prevent leaks. Cleaning rain gutters and downspouts will prevent water from backing overflowing onto the roof and seeping into your home. Be sure that downspouts are directed away from the foundation to prevent water pooling around the base of your home.

Additionally, sealing cracks in your foundation or walls can stop water from entering vulnerable areas. Check that windows and doors are properly sealed, and consider adding weather stripping for additional protection.

Regular maintenance of your landscaping is another essential step. By ensuring that the grading around your home slopes away from the foundation, you're taking a proactive step to prevent water from seeping in. Taking these precautions before the storm can save you from the headache and expense of water intrusion.
