Flood Protection Before Hurricane Season

Hurricane season compresses decision time — opening photos, Visual Fit Check readouts, and measurement visits need lead time before the first storm threats, not after landfall pressure hits.

Preliminary readout is not a fit guarantee. Measurement-based review required before quote.

Decision logic

Should you schedule measurement review?

Homeowner preparing SWFL openings before hurricane season

Strong fit signals

  • Multiple openings need protection before landfall windows
  • Limited time to deploy sandbags each season
  • Want panels staged before first storm threats

Review other paths first

  • Waiting until active storm warnings to start planning
  • No photos or opening access for review

Recommended next step: Photograph openings and run Visual Fit Check before June; schedule measurement early

Pre-season timeline

Ideally scope openings weeks before June 1 — fabrication, staging, and deployment practice need runway.

  • Photograph garage, door, slider, and lanai lines early
  • Run Visual Fit Check for preliminary fit direction
  • Schedule measurement review before forecast windows tighten

Opening priorities in SWFL

Garage and low slider lines often see the first nuisance water — rank openings by repeat exposure, not guesswork.

What Rubicon does not promise

No barrier system guarantees a dry home — Rubicon confirms fit at the measured opening line and scopes deployment you can execute under time pressure.

Common questions

FAQ

When should I schedule assessment before hurricane season?

Ideally weeks before June 1 — measurement, fabrication lead time, and deployment training need lead time before first storm threats.

Ready for measurement-based review?

Rubicon measures the opening line on site before quoting panels — photos start the path, measurement confirms fit.
