With spring right around the corner we can expect the down pour of rain so here is a your check list:
• Ensure all gutter down spout terminations are extended 6ft (or further) away from your home as practical. Be neighbourly however and don’t terminate them on to your neighbours property.
• Ensure guttering is clear of debris, downspouts and gutter can only convey so much water a Dan when blocked water will spill over adjacent to the foundation.
• Check your sump pumps and any backup system to ensure operation.
• Check the sump pump discharge line on the exterior that it is clear and also 6ft away from the foundation.
