Theo’s Thoughts: Flood-Proofing Your Garage
Last week’s historic flooding in Weston and the surrounding areas dropped nearly 8” of rain in just two hours. With nowhere for the water to go, basements, garages, streets, and entire homes were devastated.
As our community begins the hard work of rebuilding, we want to share three quick, high-impact ways to protect your garage from future flash floods:
• The Barrier: Install a heavy-duty rubber garage door threshold seal to block rushing driveway runoff.
• The Perimeter: Clear your gutters and downspouts today so heavy rain forces itself away from your foundation.
• The Interior: Ditch the cardboard boxes. Switch to airtight plastic totes and get them up off the floor.
Pro-Tip: This is where the Ikonik Doors horizontal garage door system truly shines. By utilizing your walls and ceiling for storage, you keep your valuable tools, electronics, and priceless memories completely out of harm's way.
Stay safe and stay strong, Weston.
