Fortifying Your Roof: Central Florida Storm Defense Guide
Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements. Here’s how to ensure it’s up to the challenge:
1- Schedule a Pre-Season Inspection
A professional roof inspection by Sunstate Roofs can identify loose shingles, damaged flashing, and other weak spots.
Early detection allows for timely repairs, preventing minor issues from turning into major problems during a storm.
2- Clean and Clear Your Gutters
Clogged gutters can cause water to back up under your shingles, leading to leaks and potential roof rot.
Regularly clean your gutters and ensure proper drainage away from your house.
3- Trim Back Overhanging Branches
High winds can easily snap tree limbs, turning them into dangerous projectiles that can damage your roof.
Trim back any branches that hang over your house, focusing on dead or weak limbs.
Securing Your Home for Central Florida Storms: A Proactive Approach
Once your roof is prepped, focus on securing your home’s exterior:
1- Secure Loose Outdoor Items
Patio furniture, grills, decorations – anything that can become airborne in strong winds needs to be brought inside or securely fastened down.
2- Prepare Your Pool
If you have a pool, adjust the water level according to the manufacturer’s instructions and secure pool equipment.
3- Board Up Windows (if necessary)
While Central Florida doesn’t always experience the strongest hurricanes, having plywood or hurricane shutters readily available for windows provides an extra layer of protection.
