Preparing Your Home For Hurricane Season
This year, the active hurricane season will last all the way until November 30th. The
question is: Is your home prepared to handle the storm? If not, don’t panic! Here are 4 ways you can better ready your home to withstand the severe weather.
1. Conduct Annual Maintenance Inspection On Your Roof
It is crucial that you maintain yearly repairs to fix any cracks or leaks in your roof.
The roof is the largest and most vulnerable part of the house in a storm, so
exercising diligence in keeping up its maintenance will save you money in the
long run!
2. Check the Seals Around Doors and Windows
It’s inevitable that the seals around your doors and windows will weaken over
time, especially with the hot summer weather that we experience in Texas!
Simply reseal the doors and windows ahead of time. You’ll save yourself the
hassle of mopping up puddles and dealing with damage inside the house after a
nasty storm!
3. Clear the Yard of Any Potential Hazards
Lawn furniture, grills, garden decor, or anything else that might have the potential
to go flying through a window, needs to be stored inside of the house or garage.
And anything that cannot be moved indoors should be tightly secured to the
ground!
4. Install Hurricane/Wind Rated Windows
