May is here, and while it brings sunshine and warmer weather, it also means one important thing for Florida homeowners: hurricane season is just around the corner. Officially beginning on June 1st, hurricane season can bring severe storms, high winds, and heavy rain—all of which can put your roof to the test. The big question is: Is your roof ready to handle it?
At Gone Coastal Roofing, we specialize in helping Sarasota-area homeowners prepare for storm season with expert inspections, repairs, and proactive solutions to protect what matters most.
Why May Is the Perfect Time to Prepare
Once a storm is in the forecast, it’s often too late to address hidden issues that could leave your home vulnerable. May is the ideal month to get ahead of the rush, take preventative action, and ensure your roof is in peak condition before the storms arrive.
A simple inspection now can help you:
- Identify weak or damaged shingles
- Detect signs of aging or wear
- Find and seal small leaks before they grow
- Strengthen areas prone to wind uplift
- Ensure flashing and vents are properly secured
The Risks of an Unprepared Roof
Ignoring your roof now could cost you big later. In hurricane-force winds, even one loose shingle can lead to widespread damage, exposing your home to water intrusion, mold, and costly repairs.
Not only is a damaged roof dangerous during a storm, but it can also complicate your ability to file insurance claims if it’s determined that the damage was due to lack of maintenance. Having your roof inspected and documented now could support any claims later and provide peace of mind.
