In 2019, the US suffered three major inland floods. Out of the many states these floods impacted, Texas was the hardest hit, leaving many businesses in Amarillo devastated.

At SERVPRO, we understand how difficult it is to deal with flooding caused by mother nature. Our Amarillo water damage restoration services can help get you out of a water-logged jam. Below, we’ve put together a small to-do list to prepare you for a flooded business.

What to do When a Flood Occurs

Floods, for the most part, are something you can’t avoid. Water from a massive storm or waterline break will likely seep into your business and cause damage. When your business in Amarillo is underwater — literally — you should:

Create an Emergency Plan

Your emergency plan should include an alternate source of power to reduce lost income. It should also include what your employees need to do in the case of a flood (i.e. where to meet up, how to avoid safety risks, etc.).

Train Your Employees

In conjunction with creating an emergency plan, also make sure you train your employees and go over the plan with them long before a flood is in the forecast.

To keep disruptions to a minimum and protect your employees, workers must know what they need to do in the case of a flood. Instruct them on how to protect themselves as well as protect important supplies. Also, make sure they know where to meet in case of dire circumstances.

Protect Your Businesses Information and Supplies

It can be difficult to protect your business information and supplies during a flood, which is why we encourage business owners to create a second copy of crucial documents in a secure cloud. We also encourage business owners to keep electrical supplies and appliances off the ground.
