Hurricane Preparedness Tips
If a hurricane is on the way we have a few quick tips to help you “batten down the hatches”:
Ensure doors and windows are closed and secured
Put away loose objects, patio furniture, barbeques, etc.
Tie down trampolines
Check sump pump systems to ensure they are working, and have a back-up (or two, or three!) including a battery powered pump or a standby generator
If you have a generator, test it out beforehand and be sure you have lots of fuel available
Ensure eaves troughs are clean and down spouts are secure and pointing away from your home
