SERVPRO’s Tips for Keeping Your Home Safe

1. Make sure your pipes are properly insulated. This includes the outside spigots as well. This an exposed pipe on your home that would potentially cause a water damage.
2. Let your faucets drip. Moving water has the least potential to freeze. A steady drip would be ideal.
