Not winterizing your building can lead to several serious risks and costly damage.

Key Risks to be Aware of: 

Frozen Pipes: When temperatures drop, uninsulated pipes can freeze and burst, leading to significant water damage and expensive repairs.

Roof Damage: Snow and ice accumulation can cause roofs to sag or even collapse. Ice dams can form, leading to leaks and structural damage.

Increased Energy Costs: Poor insulation and drafts can cause heating systems to work harder, resulting in higher energy bills.

Water Damage: Melting snow and ice can seep into cracks and gaps, causing water damage to walls, ceilings, and foundations.

Mold and Mildew: Moisture from leaks and condensation can create an environment for mold and mildew to grow, posing health risks and requiring costly remediation.

Structural Damage: The freeze-thaw cycle can cause expansion and contraction in building materials, leading to cracks and weakening the structure.

Safety Hazards: Icy walkways and entrances can create slip-and-fall hazards for occupants and visitors.

Conclusion

By taking the time to winterize your building, you can avoid these risks and ensure your property remains safe and in good condition throughout the winter months. Stay proactive and protect your investment and keep your work environment safe and comfortable for everyone!
