Look beyond a clear grate.
Remove loose debris from safe, accessible private drain inlets. A clear grate does not prove the connected pipe or outlet is working. Recurring backups need review.
AWC rain-preparation guide
Rain finds the
weak details first.
A blocked drain, overflowing gutter or failed exterior detail can become a bigger repair. Start with what has leaked before.
Free checklist · 12 observations · No contact form required
Safe access only. Use photos and observations from the ground or other safe areas. Stay off roofs and unsafe decks. For rising floodwater, electrical danger or unstable structures, keep clear and follow emergency guidance; call 911 for an immediate threat to life.
01 / Your property
Follow the water path.
Work through six areas. “Not sure” means it needs a look—not that damage is confirmed.
Choose “Not present” only if the feature does not exist. If you cannot see it safely, choose “Not sure.”
These answers are attached to your contact form. Start a new checklist to change them.

02 / From concern to a written scope
Get the right repair scoped
before you commit to it.
For a small, clearly defined maintenance item, useful photos may be enough to start a quote. Recurring leaks, uncertain drainage, waterproofing, difficult access and multi-trade work usually need a site review.

04 / Before the next heavy rain
A few checks worth doing early.
Water needs somewhere to go.
Note where runoff collects and where downspouts release it. Do not bury stucco drainage details or divert the problem onto a neighbor.
Start where it leaked before.
Keep safe photos of overflow, ponding and staining. Caulk does not replace failed flashing, and window weep openings must remain clear.
