The official winter season is almost upon us, but we are certainly already starting to feel the effects. The temperatures are lower during the day, and there is a certain crispness to the air at night.
While the thunderstorm season may be on its way out, winter brings its own set of unique threats to your property and home. With some simple preparation, you can prevent the damage from even occurring!
Winter Across the CountryOne of the interesting things about the United States is how vastly different the winter season can be across the country.
We may be in for an interesting winter season here in Conway and Faulkner counties! With the predicted lower temperatures and higher chance of snow, we could see more white on the ground than we are used to.
We know that the weather can be unpredictable at times, so we need to be prepared for any scenario as we enter this winter season.
Winter Around Conway and Faulkner CountiesWhile a typical winter for our area consists of mild to moderate temperatures and snow only on occasion, we can still expect dangerous conditions from time to time.
Rain, sleet and icy conditions can not only be dangerous to you and your families, but also to our homes! When the temperature drops below freezing, it is important to drive carefully or stay off the roads entirely when it starts to rain or sleet.
Preparing Your HomeThe first thing you need to do is familiarize yourself with the types of weather that could affect us here in north-central Arkansas](https://www.nssl.noaa.gov/education/svrwx101/winter/types/). While major snowstorms and blizzards don’t typically affect us, it is still important to understand how they develop and what the alerts for them look like.
Every household needs to have a fully stocked emergency kit, and your car should have a small kit as well. You never know when the weather could turn and create a dangerous situation for you.
No matter what happens this winter, weatherproofing your windows and doors can help lower your electric bill as well as prevent moisture buildup.
Outside your home, take a day to do a full walk around your property to repair any roof issues, clean out your gutters and trim any tree limbs that are hanging over your home. All of these steps can help prevent water and storm damage if a storm were to come through our area.
Winter can be a wonderful time to enjoy the coziness of the holidays and warmth of time well spent with family and friends.

When you choose SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties, that is exactly what you will get! We promise to perform our high-quality restoration services for every project that we have.
We can also offer much more than just our restoration services! We offer deep-cleans of your commercial property, as well as more sensitive cleanings like vandalism or a recent graffiti problem at your home or business.
While all of that is important when choosing a restoration company, we think one of the most beneficial things is that your team should be local.
The Benefits of a Local Service1. We Will Answer Your Call for Help FasterWhen you suffer damages to your home, the last thing you want to do is wait days to weeks for a company to fit you into their schedule! With us, we are just a few streets and a phone call away from providing you with our top-notch services.
2. We Understand Our Unique WeatherWe don’t just work in this community, a lot of us live here, too! So when the weather forecast is predicted in the evening or a particularly strong storm begins developing on radar, we are watching it just like you are.
However, in addition to preparing for a storm in our own homes, we begin connecting with our teams to plan our response to any calls for help in the aftermath.
We have witnessed countless tornado watches and warnings, and we are all too familiar with watching a storm develop in the sky above us. Since we work in the same conditions we live in, we know exactly how to respond in each scenario.
3. We Love Central ArkansasWe know that there are different restoration companies out there, but we also know that they don’t compare to our level of service and dedication to our area. If you choose another company to assist you, chances are that the team that shows up will be a mix of people from all around and may not even be from Arkansas!
That leaves you vulnerable to a company that is unfamiliar with the area and the different resources available here.
The SERVPRO team that shows up at your door will be friendly and uniquely passionate about our counties! We can chat with you about the best places to fish along the Arkansas River, or we can share with you our favorite place for a sweet treat if you need a pick-me-up! We have to recommend Kassi’s cookies in Mayflower.
We love it here, and we hope you can tell when we arrive at your home! We also know how to effectively work with our local government ordinances and regulations, ensuring a streamlined process from start to finish.
Our National Brand With a Personal TouchWe typically work with local technicians and organizations in whatever area we are serving, but sometimes a larger-scale disaster requires a bit more attention than what our resources can provide.

When disaster strikes your home or your business, we’re the team you can trust—located right here, close to home. Get in touch today to get started!
Assessing Your Home’s Flood Risk | SERVPRO® of Conway & Faulkner Counties
10/1/2022 (Permalink)
Experienced water damage in your home? Call SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties to get the restoration process started right away
Flooding problems can be a large issue for many homeowners. If you consistently seem to find water in your home after a storm, seeing inclement weather in the forecast can make you feel nervous.
If you do experience some sort of water damage, it may not be covered under your insurance and you may not make the list to receive federal assistance. Armed with that information, it is even more important to prepare your home on your own as best as you can.
Our counties have some minimal flood risk zones and some zone A areas. Floods can happen due to the rising river levels from the Arkansas River or from any severe weather that comes our way, so it is important to be prepared for heavy rains and unexpected flash flooding.
Outdoor PreparationTaking the time to prepare and clear your gutters is a great way to help reduce your risk of having water back up on your roof and leak down your walls. Also make sure you angle your downspouts as far away from your home as you can.
Consider adding mulch around your home to absorb excess moisture, or plant a garden in an area that could help encourage water to flow down to it instead of toward your home. Any landscaping you can do to help prevent water from flowing backward into your foundation will be helpful.
Your fuel and propane tanks should be anchored to the ground to make sure they are protected in the event of a flood. It can also be a good idea to turn off power to any floor or ground outlets before any incoming weather.
Indoor PreparationIf your foundation is not waterproof, a single crack can cause a lot of water issues for you. If you notice any sort of cracking or breaking along your foundation line, call a professional to repair the crack right away.
Your basement may also benefit from installing a sump pump! A sump pump works by pumping water away from your home as it flows toward it.
Flooding problems can also stem from an appliance or a rusted-out pipe. If you notice any weathering on a pipe in your utility room or start to notice water spots on your floor after running a load in your dishwasher, it is best to investigate the cause right away.
Once your home is safeguarded using these tips, it is time to address the contents of your home. A flood can ruin photographs, important documents and anything else made of paper. It is best to store these types of things on a high shelf or in a waterproof safe.
Make sure to include a copy of your emergency plan up high as well so you are never caught without it!
What if you do experience damage? Taking quick action any time you encounter flooding will help reduce your risk of long-term or irreversible damages and mold growth.

Fire Prevention Starts at Home | SERVPRO® of Conway & Faulkner Counties
6/6/2022 (Permalink)
If your home is damaged in a house fire, SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties is here to help. Contact us for any fire restoration needs.
According to the American Red Cross, they have responded to more than 20,000 house fires so far this year in 2022. Unfortunately, that number is not even an extensive list of all of the house fires in the United States.
Your first step in fire prevention is to have a fully functioning smoke detector in your home. That is the best way to prevent loss of life and devastating fire damage. After that, there are still some small things you can do yourself to help reduce fire risk in your home.
Declutter Your Spaces
It is easy to have excess in our homes. From our stairways, hallways and entry areas, we can easily become burdened by all of the extra shoes, jackets, blankets and other things that build up over time. If you have lots of things strewn about your home, you are creating tripping hazards if a quick exit is needed.
These things can also be additional fuel to a home fire or can even spark a fire if left too close to water heaters or other housing units. Allow your spaces to stay as organized and as open as possible to help slow the spread if a fire does break out.
Do you make a habit of filling up your outlets and power cords regularly? Overloaded extension cords are a very common issue in homes, and they easily can become a fire hazard. Unplug things when they are not in use, and try to avoid using up every outlet in a power cord all the time.
Your Yard Can Defend You
Your yard is actually the first line of defense when an external fire is threatening outside. By being intentional with how you plant trees and other landscaping, you can create a makeshift barrier around your home. This natural barrier protects your home and slows the spread of a fire to give your fire department more time to reach you.
States California have actually imposed defensible zone regulations due to their proven ability to slow home destruction.
Planting Strategically
Arkansas has seen an increase in wildfires in recent years, and with the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest to our north and the Ouachita National Forest to our south, we are an area that would benefit from implementing defensible spaces in our yards. The next time you are planning to plant a tree, apple blossom or shrub, think about where you’re planting it.
Clean It Up
Finally, even the simple act of cleaning can be a large factor in reducing fire risk. Simple dusting around appliances or electrical outlets help limit potential fuel for an electrical spark. Cleaning your stove and oven regularly ensures that you don’t have any blockages or buildup that could start a fire.
Our homes serve us in so many ways these days—we work, play and relax in them more often in the past few years. Do your part to take care of your home so it continues to take care of you.
If you have experienced fire damage or want to learn more about our fire damage restoration services, contact us today. We’re here to act fast, 24⁄7.

When you’re researching restoration companies, you need to be aware of a few things before fully committing to one. Take a look at the questions listed below so that you can make the best choice for yourself.
Do They Have a Good Reputation?
If you have had a disaster happen to your home, you know all about scammers. These scammers typically follow storms all around the world so they can hit people who are in their most vulnerable state.
