Hurricane-Resistant Home Remodeling ideas

Living in Southwest Florida means building with the next storm in mind. A few smart upgrades during your remodel can protect your home, lower your insurance, and give you a real peace of mind

Start with the roof 

Your roof is your first line of defense. upgrading to a hurricane-rated roof with proper strapping and sealed decking helps keep wind and water out when it matters most. 

impact windows and doors

Impact-rated windows and doors protect against flying debris and stop wind from getting inside and lifting your roof. They also cut noise and can lower your energy bills year round.

Reinforce the garage door 

The garage is one of the most vulnerable openings in a storm. A wind rated garage door keeps pressure from building inside your home and protects everything behind it. 

Improve drainage and grading 

Water does as much damage as wind proper grading, gutters, and drainage steer water away from your foundation and help prevent flooding around your home.
