Hurricane Preparedness Series | RCIP
When hurricane season unleashes its heavy rains, your foundation and drainage system face their biggest test of the year. At Rayneau Construction and Industrial Products Ltd. (RCIP), we’re committed to helping you safeguard your home and business against water damage — not just with sound advice, but with the right materials to match.
Why Your Foundation and Drains Deserve Attention
Flooded yards, cracked foundations, and soaked interiors are often the result of overlooked maintenance. If rainwater can’t drain efficiently or starts pooling around your structure, expect erosion, costly repairs, and even long-term structural damage.
What to Do Before the Storm Hits
✅ Clear Your Gutters and Drains
Leaves, silt, and storm debris can clog up drainage pathways fast. At RCIP, we supply durable gutter guards, grates, and pipe fittings to make your drainage system storm-ready.
✅ Redirect Water Flow
Ensure your downspouts push water well away from the foundation. RCIP stocks downspout extensions, drainage channels, and other essential fittings to improve ground flow and reduce pooling.
✅ Improve Yard Grading
Water should naturally flow away from your home, not toward it. Our landscaping supplies, compacting tools, and fill materials can help reshape trouble spots and prevent water buildup.
✅ Seal Foundation Gaps
Small cracks become entryways for major problems during storms. Visit any RCIP branch for waterproofing sealants, concrete repair compounds, and crack filler systems designed for Caribbean weather.
✅ Install Ground Drains or French Drains
Looking for a more permanent solution? We carry the PVC piping, filter fabric, and gravel products needed to create French drains or direct excess water away from your property.
