Is your Murrieta Hot Springs home ready to withstand winter storms? Our local Murrieta team responds to storm damage emergencies throughout the year. Water intrusion occurs when water enters the interior of a structure from an outside water source. Here are some things that can be done to minimize the chances of water intrusion issues in your home or business:

Conduct routine checks of your home's exterior, including the roof, siding, and foundation, to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. Replace damaged shingles, seal gaps in siding, and patch cracks in the foundation promptly. Clean gutters and downspouts to ensure they are free from debris and allow proper water drainage. These preventative actions can stop water from seeping into your home.

Additionally, check to make sure your yard and landscaping are designed to divert water away from your home. Proper grading around the foundation should slope away from the house to encourage water runoff. Install a French drain or a similar drainage system if your property has drainage issues. Additionally, use plants and mulch to prevent soil erosion, which can lead to water infiltration.
