💧 Spring Melt is Here – Let’s Keep Our Homes Dry! 🏡

As temperatures rise, snowmelt can increase the risk of water pooling around your home. A few simple steps now can help prevent costly flooding later.

Here are some quick tips to protect your property:

✅ Create a Foundation Buffer
Shovel snow 1–3 metres away from your home’s foundation to keep melting water from seeping in.

✅ Extend Your Downspouts
Make sure water is directed 3–6 metres away from your foundation. Flexible extensions are an easy fix!

✅ Check Your Protection Systems
Test your sump pump and ensure your backwater valve is working properly and moving freely.

A little effort now can save a lot of trouble later. Stay proactive and keep your property safe this spring!
