Hurricane Season in Palm Beach: What Every Homeowner Needs to Do Now

Hurricane season is here—and if you live in Jupiter, Tequesta, or anywhere in Palm Beach County, preparation isn’t optional. It’s essential. Every year, homeowners across South Florida face serious storm threats, and far too many scramble to react after it’s too late.

At Your24, we believe peace of mind starts with preparation. We’ve seen firsthand what happens when storms hit homes that aren’t ready—from roof leaks and flooding to power outages and unsafe mold growth. That’s why we’ve put together this essential guide to help you protect your property before the wind starts howling.

🛠️ 1. Secure a Reliable Generator—Before the Rush

If your generator hasn’t been serviced in over a year, or worse—if you don’t have one—now is the time to act. Power outages are almost guaranteed during major storms, and a generator isn’t just a convenience, it can be a lifeline.

  • Tip: Your24 can connect you with licensed local pros who install, service, and troubleshoot generators fast—before your lights go out.

     

💧 2. Inspect for Existing Water Leaks

Water intrusion is one of the top causes of post-storm damage, especially when heavy rains hit already vulnerable areas of your home. A minor leak today can become a major flood tomorrow.

  • Tip: Walk your home’s perimeter and check for stains on ceilings, soft drywall, or musty odors. If you’re unsure, we can send a vetted water damage expert for a same-day assessment.

     

🪟 3. Reinforce Windows and Doors

Hurricane shutters and impact windows are your first line of defense against flying debris and wind-driven rain. But even top-grade protection fails if improperly installed or maintained.

  • Tip: Have a pro inspect your shutters and window seals. Not sure who to call? We’ve got you covered.

     

🌴 4. Trim Trees and Clear Outdoor Items

Unsecured patio furniture, branches, and yard décor can turn into dangerous projectiles during a storm. Keep your home—and your neighbors—safe by clearing anything that could fly.

  • Tip: Hire a licensed local landscaper to do the heavy lifting. Our network includes affordable pros who know exactly what to cut back.

     

🧰 5. Build a Trusted Vendor List Now—Not During a Crisis

Here’s a hard truth: When disaster strikes, the worst time to find a contractor is after everyone else is already calling them. At Your24, we’ve built a network of the best, most reliable tradespeople in the area—vetted, family-owned, and ready when you need them.

  • Tip: Save our number in your phone today. When the unexpected happens, you won’t waste a second searching. We’re Your24/7 connection to relief.
