Natural disasters can happen to any home or business. It is important to be aware of each, and know if you can be affected by any of them.

Natural disasters can happen to any home or business. It is important to be aware of each, and know if you can be affected by any of them. 

Wildfires: If there is a wildfire in the area, be ready to evacuate quickly since they spread rapidly. 

Hurricanes: Make sure to know where to go if asked to evacuate and how you will get there; it is important to act fast. 

Flooding: If you approach a flooded road, turn around, don't think you can handle it.

Drought: Learn to make conserving water a part of your daily life.

Extreme Heat Temperatures: Drink plenty of water; heat is not good for the body at extreme temperatures. 

Always make sure to have a cell phone plugged into a backup battery pack if you know a disaster is coming.  Make sure to have alternative charging methods in case of power outages. 

SERVPRO of Newton Wellesley is available 24/7 including holidays and weekends to assist you and get your home back to “Like it never even happened.”
