‘Devika Promoters & Builders’ suggests following steps to be taken for protecting your house from the damage caused by water

Keeping up the safety and security of our home dependably stays on the top most priority. In spite of the fact that we make heavy expenses for keeping up the security from robbery, theft and other different damages yet most of the times we neglect to take precautionary measures to shield our home from the harm and damage created by the water bodies whether it is heavy rainfall or flood.

Water damage is one of the common and expensive disasters which affect thousands of houses every year causing heavy losses to the owners as well as renters. But by taking few preventive measures we can ensure the safety of our house to a large extent. ‘Devika Promoters & Builders’ suggests following steps to be taken for protecting your house from the damage caused by water:

• Inspecting your roof regularly at the time of rainfall will be helpful in avoiding expensive problems. Try to check for cracks along the edge of your roof. Ensure that there is no split and breakage which can make a way for water leakage.
• If you have any loose-fitting or curled shingles than you must repair it or replace it immediately their presence can result into leak inside your home and can even make the wall and ceilings weak.
• Ensure the proper drainage system for the waste water in your house. Regular cleaning of the gutters will avoid any collection of waste products which can further block the easy flow of water.
• Using water-sealant painting is advised for bungalows as well as for 3BHK flats. You can also make damp-proofing by making your brickwork and cellar watertight.

With the change in time and weather, our house become more prone to cracks, voids, and gaps in the walls, roofs and ceilings which can allow the easy penetrations of water in home. So if you find any change then go for immediate repairing to protect the beauty of your house.
