Winter is Coming: 

Residents of Richmond, Berea, Waco, Irvine, Stanford, and Mt. Vernon: burst pipes season is upon us, and with Kentucky weather in the mix, anything can happen. Winter temperatures are going up and down and while that seems like a sure sign --you could still have burst pipes or even rain damage. There are ways to help provide your home with safety during these times:

1. Clear Gutters. Your home's gutters help catch rainfall and ensure that it stays far away from the foundation of your home
2. Check for Signs of Leakage
3. Seal Windows and Doors
4. Get Your Basement Inspected
5. Prepare for Flooding

When it comes to burst pipes there are ways to help keep your home prepared: 

• Drip faucets in sinks and bathtubs
• Keep cabinet doors open 
• Cover outside water hoses
