Your business plan for winter weather

Emergency Ready Profiles are great preparedness resouces for businesses, and they are available in hard copy and digital

We've talked about preparing your home for winter weather, but what about your business or commercial property? If a pipe bursts or an ice dam causes water to enter the building, your business could be losing money every moment that you and your employees are unable to work efficiently. 

We at SERVPRO of Mercer County understand how important time and money are to your business, and we will strive to get your facility in shape to get you back to work as soon as possible!

But before you even have to call us, try taking some of these winter-weather precautions to prepare your business or property:

  • Check your business property for downed tree limbs and branches. Weather, such as wind, heavy rain, ice, and snow, can cause branches to fall, which could cause damage to the property and potentially cause personal injuries.
  • Inspect property, especially walkways and parking lots, for proper drainage to alleviate flood hazard potential. 
  • Inspect all handrails, stairwells, and entryways to address and correct potential slippery or hazardous areas. Install mats or non-slip surfaces and post caution signs where water could be present.
  • Ask SERVPRO of Mercer County about starting an Emergency Ready Profile for your business.

Don't neglect these important tips! Take the safety of your business and property into your own hands before the winter weather hits and makes you wish you had!
