Mount Clemens Community Builds Resiliency for Disaster Response?

9/13/2023 (Permalink)

We are leaders in storm damage restoration services in Macomb County.

Our local Mount Clemens and New Baltimore team want everyone to be prepared for a disaster. During National Preparedness Month, the Mount Clemens community can proactively build resilience for disaster response through a multifaceted approach that involves education, collaboration, and community engagement.

During the month of September, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) focuses on encouraging individuals, families, businesses, and communities to take proactive steps to enhance their preparedness. Workshops, seminars, and webinars on disaster preparedness and response are planned and these sessions can cover topics like creating emergency kits, developing family communication plans, and understanding local hazards.

Community engagement is critical to building community engagement. This year’s focus is on reaching elderly vulnerable populations during and after a disaster strikes. According to the American Red Cross, some factors that make older adults more vulnerable after disasters may include:

• A greater likelihood of suffering from chronic conditions and the need for associated medications
• A greater reliance on assistive devices such as walkers or glasses, as well as support from caregivers and others
•  An increased likelihood of social isolation

By emphasizing education, collaboration, and community engagement, our local community can enhance its disaster response resilience, ensuring that its residents are better prepared to face and recover from disasters, big or small.

Summer Storm Causes Flash Flooding in Mount Clemens?

We restore storm and flooding damage 24 hours a day in Macomb County.

When you discover flood damage in your Mount Clemens business or home, our local team in Mount Clemens and New Baltimore can help. Here are some tips from The Insurance Institute of Business and Home Safety (IBHS) to keep your home or building watertight and prevent flooding and other water intrusion issues:

If your home or building is in or near a flood-prone area, consider utilizing these dry floodproofing techniques to make your building watertight and prevent floodwaters from entering.

• Keep a supply of flood-protective materials and products on hand to help divert water away from the building, such as water-absorbent barriers, sandbags, or plastic sheeting/tarps for relatively shallow flooding.
• Install watertight shields over all doors and windows at least 3 feet above the BFE or the 500-year flood level, if known. The type of barrier used will depend on the size and type of opening.
• For temporary protection of large sections of a building such as large commercial doors or entranceways that may be exposed to deeper flood waters, water-filled barriers can be interconnected and stacked to divert water away from openings
• Install moveable flood gates, permanent swing flood doors, or submarine doors (the latter two options provide permanent flood protection for deeper water) if feasible
• For repetitive deep and prolonged flooding, permanent flood walls that surround the property may be considered

Stormwater Floods Basement in Harrison Charter Township Home?

6/27/2023 (Permalink)

We are leaders in storm damage restoration services in Macomb County.

During the summer months, storms can blow in and cause damage to homes and buildings in Harrison Charter Township. Our local Mount Clemens and New Baltimore teams are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to respond to property damage emergencies. Here are some tips from the Insurance Information Institute for preventing basement stormwater seepage:

• Reseal your basement. Water in the basement is often caused by cracks in building foundations or floor slabs. If you notice water seepage after heavy rain when you’ve never had a problem, it may mean that your once-waterproof cement floors and basement walls have deteriorated. Painting vulnerable areas with water sealant can prevent seepage.
• Make sure water drains away from the building. Seepage is exacerbated by soil that has settled in a way to make water flow toward the building. After a storm, and especially if the ground is already saturated, rainwater that flows towards the building goes down the outside of the foundation wall, potentially through any cracks.
• Install a backwater valve. Though less common than other causes of basement water, sewer backups are messy. Learn more about your sewer responsibilities and install and maintain a backwater valve, which allows sewage to go out, but not come back in.

Power Outage Affects Residents in Mount Clemens?

4/25/2023 (Permalink)

We respond to storm damage emergencies 24 hours a day in Macomb County.

Power outages can last from one day to a week. Once power is restored, there are things you should be cautious about. Our Mount Clemens and New Baltimore team want everyone to be safe after a power outage and offer these safety tips from the State of Michigan’s website:

After a power outage:

• Be extra cautious if you go outside to inspect for damage after a storm. Downed or hanging electrical wires can be hidden by snowdrifts, trees or debris, and could be live. Never attempt to touch or move downed lines. Keep children and pets away from them. Always stay 25 feet away from downed power lines.
• Check on neighbors, especially senior citizens and individuals with functional needs
• Do not touch anything power lines are touching, such as tree branches or fences. Always assume a downed line is a live line. Call your utility company to report any outage-related problems.
• Never call 9-1-1 to ask about a power outage
