How to Build a Hurricane Proof House in Florida
Florida, often hailed as the Sunshine State, is no stranger to the annual threat of hurricanes. As a resident or potential homeowner, one can’t help but feel the looming presence of these powerful storms. In light of this, the demand for hurricane-proof houses in Florida has grown exponentially. Now, more than ever, homeowners are seeking solutions that not only ensure the safety of their loved ones, but also provide a sustainable and energy-efficient lifestyle.
Improve the Comfort and Health of a Building with Soundproof Exterior Walls
The need to incorporate soundproofing features in the exterior walls of today’s homes and buildings has increased in recent decades. Urbanization, population growth, and an increase in air, rail, and highway traffic all have contributed to a widespread escalation of noise pollution.
Designing for Disaster Protection and Storm-Proof Homes
Exterior wind damage is responsible for 25% of all homeowner insurance claims. That doesn’t include the interior losses that occur when damaged windows and roofs let rain wreak havoc inside. While we can’t prevent windstorms, we can lessen their damage by planning home designs with wind-resistance as a top priority.
