Protect Your Property Before the Storm Arrives

Plan Hurricane Prep in Boca Raton

Your home faces serious risks when hurricanes approach Florida's coast. Wind, rain, and flying debris can cause expensive damage if windows, doors, and outdoor areas aren't secured properly. Tarpon Tools helps Boca Raton homeowners prepare with a thorough checklist that covers everything from window protection to yard cleanup. You'll know your property is ready before the first band of weather arrives.


We cover windows with permanent storm shutters or pre-cut plywood to prevent breakage from flying debris, bring in or tie down patio furniture, grills, and trash cans that can become projectiles, and trim trees while removing dead limbs that could fall on your house. Gutters, downspouts, and yard drains are cleared to prevent flooding. We also reinforce garage doors by bracing them to withstand high winds and drain pools to prevent overflow damage.



Schedule your hurricane prep in Boca Raton and safeguard your home before the next storm.

Details That Matter Most

Preparation starts with securing windows and doors, which are the most vulnerable points during high winds. We install permanent storm shutters or attach pre-cut plywood panels that fit your window frames precisely. In Boca Raton, where coastal winds can exceed 100 miles per hour, proper window protection prevents interior flooding and structural damage caused by sudden pressure changes.


Tarpon Tools removes or ties down outdoor furniture, grills, trash cans, and any loose items that could become airborne. We trim trees and remove dead limbs that threaten your roof, clear gutters and downspouts to ensure water flows away from your foundation, and drain pools to prevent overflow that damages decks and landscaping. Garage door bracing adds critical reinforcement against wind pressure.


Each task is completed with attention to timing and weather forecasts so your home is fully prepared without last-minute stress. You'll have peace of mind knowing every vulnerable area has been addressed before the storm makes landfall.

What to Expect When You Book

Homeowners often ask about timelines, material options, and what to prioritize when a storm is approaching. Here are answers to the most common questions about hurricane preparation.


  • How far in advance should I schedule hurricane prep? Ideally, you should schedule prep at least 48 to 72 hours before a storm's expected arrival. This allows time to complete all tasks without rushing.
  • Do you provide storm shutters, or do I need to supply them? We can install your existing shutters or supply and install pre-cut plywood panels sized to fit your windows. Both options provide effective protection against flying debris.
  • How do you secure outdoor furniture and other loose items? We bring items like patio furniture, grills, and trash cans indoors or into your garage. Larger items are tied down with heavy-duty straps anchored to secure points.
  • Why is it important to drain pools before a hurricane? Draining pools to the proper level prevents overflow caused by heavy rain. Overflow can flood your deck, damage landscaping, and create standing water that attracts pests in Boca Raton.
  • What does garage door bracing involve? We install horizontal or vertical braces that reinforce your garage door against high wind pressure. This prevents the door from collapsing inward, which can compromise your roof structure.
