ELSA HAS VISITED THE ARKLATEX!
11/11/2024 (Permalink)
During the colder weather, rain may visit and leave its friend – ICE! Fortunately, SERVPRO of Texarkana is equipped to handle many storm situations. Much like any area in the path of Winter rain resulting in a freeze, the ARKLATEX area freezes over and Water Damage wreaks havoc on properties in the metroplex.
BASIC SAFETY FIRST!
- Rock salt or more environmentally safe products to melt ice on walkways
- Sand to improve traction
- Snow shovels and other snow removal equipment
- Sufficient heating fuel, like dry, seasoned wood for your fireplace or wood-burning stove
- Adequate clothing and blankets to keep you warm
MAKE A PLAN!
- Make a family emergency plan — Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so it is important to know how you will contact one another, how you will get back together and what you will do in case of an emergency
- Listen to National Weather Service and be alert to changing weather conditions
ENSURE EVERYONES SAFETY!
- Minimize travel, but keep a disaster supplies kit in your vehicle
- Bring pets/companion animals inside during winter weather
- Move other animals or livestock to sheltered areas with non-frozen drinking water
AFTER THE FREEZE – HANDLING WATER DAMAGE!
After the temperatures rise once again, the ice melts, the pipes thaw and bring Water Damage. SERVPRO of Texarkana is ready to assist the community with highly trained technicians.
