Winter is Coming to Macomb Township: Are You Ready?
1/21/2025 (Permalink)
Our Northeast Macomb Township team restores storm damage in Macomb Township every winter. Preparing for winter storms is crucial to ensure safety and minimize potential damage. Here are some steps residents can take now to be ready when severe weather hits:
Inspect Your Home’s Exterior
Check your roof for loose shingles and make sure your drainage systems are clear of debris and drain away from your home's foundation. Consider installing snow guards to manage snow and ice buildup on your roof if necessary.
Seal Windows and Doors
Inspect the windows and doors for drafts and seal leaks as needed to prevent heat loss and water intrusion. Use weatherstripping or caulk to keep your home warm and reduce energy bills.
Stock Up on Essentials
Review your emergency supplies and replenish items like bottled water, non-perishable food, and batteries and make sure you have plenty of flashlights, blankets, and a first-aid kit. Ensure you have enough prescription medications on hand, as storms may cause delays in getting refills.
Have a Backup Heat Source
Having a backup heat source like a generator or wood stove is crucial in winter. Test your generator now to ensure it’s working correctly.
