Storm Ready – Western, PA Winter Edition!
11/6/2019 (Permalink)
Winter is on the way! Is your Mercer and Lawrence County business ready? Severe winter weather can strike at anytime and there are a variety of things you can do to make sure that both you and your property are ready.
Winter Readiness Tips
- Check your property for low hanging or damaged tree limbs – ice, sleet, and snow can cause weak branches to fall and lead to serious damage
- Install mats or non-slip surfaces – to avoid potential falling hazards from melting snow or ice
- Check on your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors – a properly functioning alarm can save you lots of time and money
- Make sure you heating system is ready for the cold – if you wait until it is cold outside to do this, you risk battling high call volume, since many people need repairs during the fall and winter months
- Schedule an ERP with SERVPRO of Mercer and Lawrence Counties – an Emergency Ready Profile is a free of charge service and can save you a ton of stress, money, and confusion in the event of a storm disaster.
These are just a few tips to help you prepare your Mercer and Lawrence County business for whatever happens this winter. For additional tips that help you create your best plan visit Ready.gov
