Mix heavy responsibilities, strong leadership, a dash of craziness, and a whole lot of passion you have the making of a business owner.
Owning a business should be filled with invention and creation, not having to worry about busted pipes, overflowing toilets, or property damage. Having an Emergency Ready Plan gives business owners a plan of action before they need it. Creating a roadmap to dodge the next disaster.
Here are some ways you can prepare for your "worst-case scenario" and have the necessary tools in your tool bag to prevent it.
Maintenance Checks
- Causal routine maintenance check-ups on your plumbing system, sewer lines, drainage systems, electrical and heating systems can be a great first tool for your tool bag.
- Scheduling an annual inspection could potentially save you thousands of dollars. On average, water damage costs in commercial buildings are around $24,000, with water damage from bursting or leaking pipes being the highest claim.
Inspect your Roof
