On January 11, 2011 South East QLD was hit with massive flood waters that damaged farming properties, homes and businesses. In the summer season of storms, it is incredibly important to know how to prepare your home for storms.
Tradesmen on Time have a great section on what to do pre, during and post storm, especially when it comes down to keeping safe around electrical circuits.
