How to Keep Your Bermuda Home Safe During Hurricane Season
Bermuda’s beauty comes with one challenge—hurricane season. Preparing your home in advance can make all the difference when storms hit.
1. Inspect Your Roof
Loose tiles or shingles are dangerous in high winds. A handyman or roofer can secure them before storms arrive.
2. Secure Windows & Doors
Install shutters or use plywood. Reinforce door hinges and locks for extra strength.
3. Clear Outdoor Areas
Bring inside anything that can fly away—patio furniture, potted plants, garden tools. These can cause serious damage.
4. Check Gutters & Drains
Clogged drains lead to flooding. Cleaning them ensures rainwater flows away from your home.
5. Emergency Kit & Backup Power
Have batteries, flashlights, water, and non-perishable food ready. If possible, consider a generator.
Final Thought:
Peace of mind starts with preparation. Whether you handle small tasks yourself or hire a professional through BDA Home Pros, investing in hurricane safety is always worth it.
