Don’t Let Spring Showers Bring Water Damage

The age-old saying ‘April showers bring May flowers’ is true when it comes to mother nature, but for an unprepared home, it's another story altogether. Addressing any leaks/roof damage, and a general maintenance of your property can save you from huge expenses and a lot of anxiety. Let NewGen Remediation Specialist help you ensure your home is ‘rain-ready’.

Checking the Foundation
Sometimes heavy showers can overwhelm your sump systems, sewers and fill the ground around your house with water. This water can seep into the foundations of your home and lead to structural issues that can be detrimental to the integrity of your home. The water can also flow into your house. This water can lead to a host of water-borne diseases and for homes with kids and the elderly, it can be a serious health -hazard. Our experts can check the sewers and sump pumps to ensure that these are working properly and draining water away from the house. We can also check the foundations of your home for structural integrity and any signs of water seepage, and advise you about any action that needs to be taken.

Other Checks Our Experts Perform
A leaking roof or gutter can lead to water entering the inside of your home. Once in, the water can damage anything that it comes in contact with, walls, electrical wires, appliances, insulation and furniture. Water coming in contact with electricity is a serious cause for worry. To prevent a mishap, NewGen’s technicians perform the following checks: 

• Check the gutters for any leaks
• Check if you have a backwater valve installed to close automatically if your sewer backs up
• Check the roof thoroughly for any leaks or damage
• Check the sump pump
• Check the sealants on the windows and panel.
• Check the exterior walls for any cracks and suggest remedial action
• Check the water pipes for any signs of leak or damage (these need to be rectified immediately)

In addition to the above, our experienced professionals use state-of-the-art equipment to inspect hoses, washing machines, dishwashers, water heaters, refrigerators and other appliances for water leaks and damage.
