Is Your Home’s Exterior Hurricane Ready?
Posted on August 13, 2025
Hurricane season in the Cypress and Spring, TX area is no time to leave your home’s exterior vulnerable. With strong winds, heavy rains, and unpredictable weather on the horizon, a little preparation now can prevent costly damage down the line.
Here are five things you can check today to help protect your home:
Peeling or bubbling paint – This can allow moisture to seep into your home’s structure, leading to wood rot and mold growth.
Cracked, exposed, or rotting wood – Damaged wood is far more likely to break or deteriorate further in a storm.
Gaps in siding and trim – These small openings can quickly turn into major water intrusion points when heavy rain hits.
Clogged or loose gutters and downspouts – Poor drainage can cause water to pool near your foundation or back up into your roofline.
Faded or weathered paint – Sun and weather exposure weaken protective coatings, leaving your exterior vulnerable.
Taking the time to inspect these areas now—before the storms arrive—can give you peace of mind and protect your investment. A fresh coat of high-quality exterior paint does more than improve curb appeal; it acts as a protective barrier against moisture, UV rays, and the harsh elements of Texas weather.
