An Ounce Of Prevention....

It always amazes me.  Floods can literally happen anywhere, and at any time....here in Atlanta we discovered that just about a year ago, when torrential rains moved through and devastated much of the metro area.  The sight of Six Flags underwater was surreal, to say the least.

Proof positive that ANYONE can be affected by a flood, and yet only a small percentage of the American population have any sort of flood insurance.  When you stop to consider the incredible level of damage left behind by flood waters, I'm somewhat perplexed that anyone should take such a chance.

You can't eliminate the threat of a flood, anymore than you can stop it when it happens, but you can have peace of mind concerning what happens in the aftermath.  Take the time today to sit down with your homeowner's insurance provider, determine exactly what is and is not covered as it relates to water damage, and make the appropriate adjustments.

I guess I just think it's far better to do it now as opposed to when you're pulling raw sewage out of your ear......just sayin.....
