Is Your Roof Ready for Hurricane Season?

If you’re a Florida native, you’re probably already familiar with Hurricane Season, which runs from June 1st to November 30th each year. However, the great state of Florida receives an influx of new residents yearly, who may not be as familiar with hurricane season and its ramifications.

Your home’s roof is its first line of defense against storm and weather damage. That is why it is of the utmost importance to make sure your roof is capable of defending against the elements. Preparing your roof for hurricane season can seem daunting, but by following these steps, you can ensure that your roof is ready.

  1. Make sure your current roof is rated for winds up to 150 mph or greater. This includes every element of the roof - whether it be a ridge vent, a skylight, or the roofing material itself. Code Red Roofers adheres to Miami-Dade standards, which is the highest ratings regarding building codes in the state of Florida.

  2. Inspect your roof for loose tiles, shingles, or damage. Loose or damaged roofing material can be an entry point for water or wind, thus causing your roof to get further damage. Code Red Roofers provides FREE repair and reroof estimates to help take the guesswork out of determining if your roof is ready to withstand a hurricane.

  3. Fix any reported damage prior to a hurricane’s arrival. Leaving your roof exposed to the elements prior to a hurricane can cause extreme damage to the underlying structure, or even worse, the contents or people within your home.

Code Red Roofers is ready to assist you during this year’s hurricane season. Whether it be a repair or a total reroof, we are here to ensure your roof is in its best shape to weather the storm. Please call us at 1-844-4CODE RED or fill out our Request A Quote form to be
