but as good as we are are unflooding basements, drying out basements, emergency water removal, there is even something better. Not having to call us at all because you were prepared.
a few years ago we along with ten zillion other people lost power. after a few hours my wife started yelling all up and down the house for me.
I'm in the basement I told her.
what are you doing down there in the dark.
I'm doing my JOB.
she paused for a moment then yelled back. "you're eating ice cream bars."
ding ding ding. we have a winner. those ice cream bars were gonna melt if i didn't help them out. It was dark. there was no power and I was the man for the job.
eating your problems away is one solution. another is to have your plumber stop in once a year, spend a few bucks and be sure that fancy expensive battery back up system you shelled out all those ducats for is actually working.
how about your gutters and downspouts? when was the last time they were cleaned and checked? you can hire an insured service for a few bucks to clean them out. I haven't heard too many good things about gutter leaf protectors but someone gotta do it or you're gonna end up calling me because of flooding.
does the contour of your ground lead water away from the house or towards it. my friend Ave Berkshire in Oak Brook Terrace can terra form your yard, cut the grass and make your outside look as beautiful as the inside. call me and I'll get you her landscaping #.
Ice damns can push water under your shingles and give you leaking roofs walls and basements. do you need to have someone install a gutter warmer?
even a simple thing like keeping the trees and bushes near the foundation trimmed and in good order can go a long way to keeping you dry during the upcoming rainy season.
In closing I'm reminded of a national geographics picture i saw. the river overflooded everyone in town. the ariel view showed every home under water but one. this man had sandbag up the wazoo surrounding his property. everyone else had access to the same sand, the same bags but only he was proactive and made the preparations that save his home and saved him tons of money. misery loves company. let misery go solo this upcoming flood season. as for me?
I'm not taking any chances. I've got two generators, a brand new sump pump and a chest freezer full of ice cream bars. I'm starting to eat them now, just in case a comet comes along and lands on my generators and sup. Happy rainy season.
