We have technicians on call 24 hours a day to mitigate water damage in the Austin area.

A mixed bag of weather for December

Looking at the weather forecast for December, Blue Earth looks like it can expect a mixture of wind, ice, snow, and rain! SERVPRO® of Austin & Albert Lea has been helping residents and business owners mitigate storm damage for years, and we have the experience and advanced training to restore damage quickly and efficiently.

Here are some tips from the Federal Emergency Management Agency on protecting your property from storm damage:

• Winterize your home by insulating walls and attics, caulking and weather-stripping doors and windows or covering windows with plastic.
• Insulate water pipes and allow faucets to drip or trickle during frigid weather or if the power and heat go out to avoid burst pipes. Know how to shut off water valves if a pipe bursts.
• Clear rain gutters and repair roof leaks. Clear away tree branches that could damage your house. Keep pathways clear between storms.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide detectors.
• Keep fire extinguishers on hand and make sure everyone knows how to use them.
• Maintain heating equipment and have your chimney cleaned and inspected by a professional every year.
