Water damage in your home can come in many forms. For some, flooding is one of the most common causes of damage in a home due to the home’s location and proximity to water sources. With major storms like Hurricane Debby making landfall, it’s essential to be prepared. Overall, according to the Insurance Information Institute, water damage makes up nearly a quarter of homeowners’ insurance claims and includes water inclusion from a major storm, burst water pipes, and many other sources.

Regardless of how the uninvited water made its way into your home, damage from the water can be disastrous. As a result, it’s best to take steps now to ensure your home is protected from flooding and other types of water damage. You’ll find steps in this guide to prepare your home and belongings to be as safe from water damage as possible.

Know your risk of flooding

Floods are one of the most devastating forms of water damage. Not only does the water itself cause issues for the home and community, but the deposits in the water and the potential for mold and other bacteria only add to the damage once the water recedes. The first step in avoiding flood damage to your home is to evaluate your flood risk. Certain parts of the country and even your own community are at higher flood risk than others and must take extra precautions to keep their homes safe and dry.

An excellent way to evaluate your home’s risk of being in a flood is to review the FEMA flood map or to talk with your local zoning agency. FEMA considers any area with at least a one percent chance of flooding a Special Flood Hazard Area. Should your home lie in any of these high-risk areas, you’ll want to take extra precautions to protect yourself and your home.

Seal your home’s foundation

Rain gutters may not seem like the most obvious thing to check when you’re getting water into your home, but clogged rain gutters, and storm drains can be part of the problem. When clogged, water doesn’t flow freely and can end up running to places it shouldn’t be, causing it to back up and pool around your home.

When water pools, it’s more likely to seep between shingles, behind siding and into other cracks. The best way to avoid this is to schedule regular maintenance of your gutters, spouts and storm drains. Also, ensure that your downspouts are pointed away from the house.

Install flood sensors

The other style of flood detectors isn’t smart but can be helpful in other ways. I use Govee Water Leak Detectors under the sinks in my home, behind my toilets, my dishwasher, and my washing machine. I also have two in my camper. These have a very loud alarm that sounds when wet, so while you won’t get a notification on your phone if you’re in the area at all, you’ll hear it.

There are many types of flood sensors to choose from, with prices ranging from just $20 to nearly $100. Some home security companies also offer flood sensors as a part of their home security systems.

Repair water leaks

This may seem a bit obvious, but if you have any leaks in your pipes or roof — even minor ones — get them fixed as soon as possible. Even the tiniest of drips of leaks can create big problems, and it’s only a matter of time before that small leak gets worse. The last thing you want is a huge rainstorm to show you just how serious that tiny leak was.

Even if you haven’t experienced problems with leaks, it’s good practice to keep an eye on anything in your home that could leak so you catch it immediately. That means doing routine checks of your ceilings for water stains, looking under bathroom and kitchen cabinets for water-swollen wood, and checking around the base of your HVAC and water heater for evidence of pooling.

Improve your yard’s grading

If your home has a basement, a sump pump is an essential piece of equipment to own. A sump pump is a device designed to pump groundwater away from your home, directing it away from your pipes and foundation. Many homes will have a hole in the basement in which a pump can be installed and will switch on automatically should that hole fill up.

If your home doesn’t have a hole for a sump pump, it should have a floor drain in the lowest point of the basement. In this case, should the basement get excessive water, you’ll want to direct that water to the drain. It would also be wise to put a good dehumidifier in your basement to help remove any moisture from the air and dry out the area should water get in.

Elevate appliances and utilities

Should your home be in an area that experiences frequent flooding, once you have checked off the steps above, make sure to protect your appliances, utilities and other electrical equipment around your home. If not already, you can raise electrical switches, circuit breakers and switches at least one foot off the floor to prevent electrical damage. For appliances like your HVAC system, refrigerators, freezers and other major appliances, putting them on risers (bricks, boards, etc.) will help reduce the chance of damage in the event of a flood.

Insure your home

In a perfect world, you would never experience flooding in your home. It’s not a bad idea to plan for the worst-case scenario.

Most home insurance plans cover sudden and unforeseen cases of broken pipes, and other reasons for flooding, such as sewer backup, which is often a fairly affordable add-on. If you neglect your pipes and they burst due to rust and age, your insurance likely won’t cover the damage.

If you live in an area at high risk of flooding, you may be required to purchase flood insurance for your home. Even if it’s not required for you, it’s still something to consider, depending on where you live.

The most important thing is to do your research: check your pipes for rust and damage, check the flood risk in the area and talk to neighbors about what issues they’ve experienced.

What’s next?

Flooding and water damage are all too common problems for homeowners. Having the right precautions in place can help to ensure that in the case of a storm or other unforeseen event, your home is protected. 

Should your home have some unexpected water get inside, having tools and equipment on hand can help clean up and reduce the damage. Having will help get the moisture out of the air. You might also need a couple of powerful fans to move air and help with drying. Along with fans, I recommend getting an air mover, which is like a fan but more powerful and directional. There are larger ones, but l like the Lasko Super Fan Max Air Mover because it is compact but still moves more than enough air.

Additionally, flooding isn’t the only danger your home faces. Be sure to visit our home safety checklist with seven more steps you can take to keep your home and family safe and secure.
