Here are the top things to do to prepare your business from flood damage before the storm strikes 

BEFORE THE FLOOD

• Have a qualified professional elevate the furnace, water heater, electric panel if susceptible to flooding.
• Install Check valves in sewer traps to prevent flood water from backing up into the drains of your business.
• Seal walls in basements with waterproofing compounds to avoid Seepage.
• Arrange to have a free Emergency Ready profile made for your business in advance so if the flood does happen, then you will be able to manage the restoration process remotely.
• Make sure you have flood insurance; flood insurance takes 30 days to get into effect so it is imperative that you have it long before you need it.
• Document your business. Take quality pictures of vehicles, computers, inventory and office set up. You'll be glad you have this later.
