According to disaster safety.org some tips to keep water out of your business and prevent a flood:
Seal cracks-use high quality products to seal cracks on pipes.
Sump pump-connect sump pumps to a battery backup or generator.
Backflow valve- Install backflow valves on main waste drain pipes that leave the structure.
Protect openings- keep a supply of water-absorbent or water-filled barriers to divert water away. Install watertight shields over all doors and windows at least 12 inches above anticipated flood level. The type of barrier used will depend on the size and type of opening.
Slope- Evaluate the drainage of the property to make sure the ground slopes away from the building.
All of these tips will help to make sure your business does not experience water damage.
