Try not to build houses in flood prone areas. Therefore, you must identify the ecological system around your residential area. Design a building foundation that is located higher, at least 40 to 50 cm above the street front of your home.
Height of the house was easy to distinguish if your home is still in its early stages of development. However, what would happen if the house was designed without any preparation for flooding.
Raise the height of the floor so the final solution, but the calculated distance of the ceiling. Try not to get too close to the head of adult males. Raised interior floor has different consequences entrance height so that inevitably you have to make small steps. Or it could also elevate the house starting from the front area of the fence. However, this alternative is more costly due to the additional height is comprehensive. In other words, the garden landscape will change completely.
Another way is much easier and efficient, which is making its blockade on the terrace. This should be a last resort or for the prevention of emergency (temporary) alone. Because tricks like this have less aesthetic value, the beauty of the facade will be reduced and look strange.
The next trick is more aesthetic, namely by making ornamental pond in front garden. However, this one trick that can only cope with minor flooding. Try to make the pond deeper and more spacious so it can accommodate the overflow of water. The risks, you should bother moving your ornamental fish when floods come.
However, what may be created if the flooding had become unwanted guests in your home. Therefore, the houses were built as high as anything, it still floods will disrupt your convenience. Willy-nilly, you must mengakalinya with interior design and furniture selection which can “work together” with you in order to remain prepared for the rainy season and flooding.
There are some simple steps you can do. Simple solution is to make recharge wells in the area of the house or around your neighborhood.
Another way you can do is to plant crops other than grass. So in designing a home, you should leave the green land for water catchment. One of the plants is very important when the rainy season is the bamboo plant. Bamboo tree can absorb water in large quantities so it can function as a buffer (anchoring). Just imagine, a bamboo rod with a diameter of about three millimeters can grow three feet in the next 24 hours, but the bamboo grown.
If your house is already flooded and there are parts of a damaged house, you do not hesitate to consult with contractors. Besides, you still have to consult with contractors associated with the renovation would be done.
Compared to the work itself is time consuming and costs more, the contractor would know more about the technical aspects and details.
