Tips for Preparing your Business for Winter Weather

• 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 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.
• Lay salt down on all walkways to prevent employees from slipping.
• Clear built up snow on roofs to prevent potential leaks coming through the roof.
• Ask SERVPRO of Chesterfield about starting a Disaster Recovery Plan for your business.
