Protect Against Damage and Ensure Safety with Recommendations from Home Safe Claims Public Adjusters.
FLORIDA, USA, June 26, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Florida residents are bracing themselves for this hurricane season, which could bring possible destruction of property and loss of life to its coast. With the recent influx of individuals relocating to Florida, many may be unfamiliar with the risks posed by hurricanes. Those recently relocated to the Sunshine State should pay particular attention to the advice of experts. Home Safe Claims (HSC), a leading insurance adjuster based in Florida, is urging Floridian residents to prepare for the upcoming hurricane season by offering advice on how to prepare for and protect against damage, while ensuring safety.
Before the storm – Preparation is key in preparing for a hurricane, as it can help save property and even lives if done properly. There are numerous precautions that can be taken to minimize property damage and ensure the safety of those inside. This includes: stocking up on food and water supplies; refilling prescriptions; having cash on hand to pay for things when credit cards payments may not be accepted due to power outages; turning off propane tanks; securing outdoor furniture and patio objects that could become projectile items in strong winds; making sure flashlights are working correctly; ensuring ample battery-powered devices such as radios are available for communication purposes; and checking up on elderly neighbors who may have difficulty getting around. Before a hurricane arrives, HSC also recommends checking that all windows are properly secured with shutters or plywood to protect property and ensure safety ahead of any high-wind storms. The safest option is always to evacuate if advised by local authorities.
During a hurricane’s passing, risks such as broken windows, flooding and roof damage must be taken seriously. Home Safe Claims advises families remain indoors during the storm if possible and stay away from windows, roofing can often be damaged by strong winds leading to structural instability and water infiltration. Individuals venturing outside during the calm of the storm, signifying the passing of the eye of the storm need to be aware that this action can be incredibly dangerous, as the back side of the storm is often stronger than the first and those who have ventured out may not make it back inside in time.
HSC also warns that the aftermath of a hurricane can be just as dangerous as the event itself as there are numerous ways in which risk can increase due to destruction caused by the storm. This includes fallen trees causing obstructions on roads or power lines potentially leading to electrocution if not handled properly; severed limbs can occur if chainsaws are used incorrectly when removing downed trees; floodwaters may contain contamination posing risks for drinking; fire hazards may arise due to alternative fuel sources improperly used during times of prolonged power outages; carbon monoxide poisoning may result from improper use of combustion engine generators; food poisoning might occur from improper temperature storage after power failure; worsening sicknesses (such as diabetes) or running out of medication due too lack of access during evacuation periods; etc.
Florida residents need to prepare for hurricane season as thoroughly as possible. Home Safe claims can help assist residents with preparations before and after the hurricane with any Florida storm damage claims related to roof leak insurance claims or storm water damage claims. Proper preparations before, during, and after a hurricane event can help reduce casualties, property damage and prevent additional headaches related to a lack of preparation.
