How to Prepare Your Home for a Hurricane

Your home is one of the most important assets in your life. The last thing you want is for it to be vulnerable in case a hurricane strikes. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize the precautions they could have taken to fortify their home until a storm wreaks its havoc. If you take the following precautionary steps, you may be able to avoid costly damage:

  • Ensure that your home and flood insurance is up to date
  • Secure your windows with shutters or plywood, or invest in impact-resistant windows
  • Cut down any trees and branches close to your home and car
  • Turn off the gas and power to your home, and if you don’t know how, contact a gas or electric company for instructions
  • Purchase a generator, along with several 5-gallon gas cans
