Summer storm season is here in Fort Mill. Heavy rains and strong winds can cause serious water damage to your home. Our Fort Mill headquarters team wants to help you stay prepared and protect your family.

Fort Mill gets hit hard during summer storms. The good news? We live right here in town. That means we can reach your home fast when you need help most.

Fort Mill sits in the perfect storm zone. We get heavy rainfall from summer thunderstorms. Our clay soil doesn't drain water quickly. This creates flooding around foundations.

Baxter Village townhomes face special challenges. Water can spread between connected units. Springfield's older homes have aging drainage systems. Regent Park families need to watch for basement flooding.

The trees we love in Fort Mill can become dangerous. Strong winds knock down branches. These can damage your roof and gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and flood your foundation.

Smart preparation saves money and stress. Here's what every Fort Mill homeowner should do:

Check Your Gutters: Clean out leaves and debris. Make sure water flows away from your house. Fix loose or broken sections now.

Test Your Sump Pump: Pour water in the pit. The pump should turn on and remove water quickly. Replace the battery in backup systems.

Inspect Your Roof: Look for loose or missing shingles. Check around chimneys and vents. Small problems become big leaks during storms.

Know Your Shut-Off Valve: Find your main water shut-off. Show family members where it is. You might need to turn off water quickly.

Stay safe first. Never go outside during severe weather. Watch for these warning signs inside your home:

Water coming through windows or doors. Wet spots on walls or ceilings. Unusual sounds from your basement or crawlspace. Flickering lights that might mean electrical problems.

Take photos of any damage you see. This helps with insurance claims later. But only if you can do it safely.
