        "text": "To prevent future rain flooding, ensure your gutters and downspouts are clear and properly direct water away from your foundation. Regularly inspect your roof for damaged or missing shingles. Consider grading your landscaping to slope away from your home. Install a sump pump in your basement or crawl space, if applicable, and ensure it's functioning correctly. Check window and door seals for leaks. These preventative steps can significantly reduce your risk of water intrusion.",
