Water damage can be easily prevented at times with simple maintenance around the house. We received 2 preventable calls for water restoration in Charlotte because of the rain storm yesterday. The need for both calls for water mitigation was caused by leaves in debris in the wrong areas around the house. The first call involved a blocked drain and this calls water damage was caused by leaves stock in the gutters. The customer walked into her house to find water running down the walls from the ceiling area. Because of the location I can tell the source was not a pipe but it was coming from outside. The rain was coming down so much the blockage in the gutter made the water elevate past the top of the gutter and flow in between the tiles causing water damage to the ceiling and walls of the home.
