We want to help you prepare as much as possible to help protect you and your family.

Living along the coastline is a dream for a lot of people. 

It’s beautiful! there is also evidence that there is a link between living near the coast and pristine health!

Living on the coast has its ups and its downs. You should have a plan in place to prepare for severe weather, especially hurricanes.

Hurricanes are massive storm systems that form over the water and move toward land bringing high winds, heavy rain and hail, flooding, and more.

Hurricane Preparedness: What to Do Before a Hurricane

Before the storm is the time to start preparing your home and family for the worst. It’s better to overprepare than to be underprepared!

Hurricane Preparedness: What to Do During a Hurricane

Make sure you stay safe during a hurricane, whether you are evacuating or staying in your home.

• Evacuate when told to
• Stay Put In Your Home
• Unplug all the electronics

Hurricane Preparedness: What to Do After a Hurricane

After the storm, you can breathe a sigh of relief – but make sure you’re still staying safe! Even once the storm is over there are often hazards such as downed power lines and high water that can harm you and your family.

• Stay Safe
• Check-In
• Report hazards
• Stay away from floodwaters
• Be patient and stay positive

The most important thing to us at SERVPRO is to keep everyone safe!
