Schools Out
Last year had an unprecedented amount of rainfall. All across the world had the same problem; too much precipitation. If you looked in any part of the world you saw rainfall and floods being a problem. There were flood problems in France. Hurricanes in the Pacific Ocean and the eastern side of the world. There were hail storms in the north and rainstorms in South America. Luckily Houston didn’t get any storms. If only that were true. Houston had the giant rainstorm that everyone knows about last year but there were also many mini floods (in comparison to the flood that wreaked havoc on the city of Houston, Texas) that happened throughout the year.
Here at SERVPRO of Katy Cypress, we specialize in water restoration, fire restoration, mold remediation, and any type of cleaning that you could ask for. Having said that we were shocked with the amount of rain and storms that hit the city. With all of this water we were up to our eyeballs (metaphorically) in water and work. As SERVPRO of Katy Cypress, we were well equipped to handle this amount of rainfall. The hidden variable in the precipitation and flood problem was the amount of construction and building that is occurring in the greater Houston and Katy, Texas area. Where there use to be grass and trees and dirt there is now concrete and streets.
If you have ever poured water onto sand or soil you know that the water goes into the soil. This is a basic principle in farming. If you have ever poured water onto concrete, you see that it doesn’t get absorbed by the concrete. It flows like a river. That is a basic principal of what a liquid does. So, while we are part of this community and are ecstatic about the growth and development of the schools and businesses it also causes a problem for water flow.
