Hurricane Season In Orlando, FL:
Is Your Home Ready?
Published: June 4, 2025
Hurricane season officially begins June 1 and runs through November 30, and for homeowners in Orlando and across Central Florida, preparation is critical. Each year, storms bring the threat of strong winds, heavy rain, storm surge, and flooding—and it only takes one hurricane to cause major damage to your home and property.
At A.C.F. Home Inspections, we understand the unique challenges that Orlando-area homeowners face during hurricane season. That’s why we offer specialized home inspections focused on hurricane preparedness. Whether you’re new to the area or have weathered storms before, our detailed inspections provide peace of mind and help you take action before a storm ever forms in the Atlantic.
Why A Hurricane Preparedness Inspection Matters
A hurricane preparedness inspection is designed to evaluate your home’s structural integrity and identify vulnerabilities that could be exposed during high winds and heavy rain. During an inspection, we assess:
-
Roof condition and attachment
-
Window and door security
-
Foundation and structural soundness
-
Storm shutter installation
-
Attic ventilation and insulation
-
Drainage and grading around the home
We’ll also check for past signs of water intrusion or damage that could worsen during a storm event. With this knowledge, you can reinforce weak areas, make critical repairs, and ensure your home is better protected against severe weather.
Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late
In Orlando, we’ve seen firsthand how unprepared homes suffer the most damage. By scheduling your inspection early in the season, you give yourself the time needed to make smart, informed decisions—whether it’s replacing loose roof shingles, securing your garage door, or improving drainage.
Central Florida can go from calm to chaos in just a few days when a hurricane develops. Taking proactive steps now isn’t just smart—it’s essential.
Hurricane Safety Goes Beyond The Structure
While protecting your home is vital, having a family plan in place is equally important. For steps on how to prepare your loved ones before, during, and after a major storm, visit our Family Disaster Preparedness page.
