When the Gulf gets busy, the difference between a stressful scramble and a calm afternoon is having a plan and a crew. We help Coastal Bend homeowners get ready before a system spins up — measuring and cutting board-up panels, installing pre-made shutter panels, securing gates and patio furniture, and walking your property for the loose ends that become projectiles in a blow.
After the weather passes, we come back for the punch list: re-hanging doors that racked, resealing gaps, patching and clearing debris. We stay in our lane — structural and roof work goes to licensed pros — but for the dozens of small securing-and-fixing jobs around a storm, we're the call that saves you a week of chasing help.
Timing is everything on this coast. The Coastal Bend can go from a calm Gulf to a named system with landfall potential in under a week, and the moment it does, every hardware shelf from Calallen to the island empties. Homeowners who let us pre-cut in spring skip that panic, turning install into a one-morning job.
Storm-prep pricing in Corpus Christi tracks a few honest factors. The size and number of openings drive it most, since a home with tall windows takes more panel material than a compact one. Whether we're cutting fresh plywood or installing panels you already own makes a difference, as does storing those panels between seasons. Access matters too, because second-story and Gulf-facing walls take staging. Post-storm punch-list work is billed by what the weather actually left behind, so a quiet season costs you far less.
We bring storm prep & board-up to homes across the Coastal Bend — Padre Island, Flour Bluff, Calallen, Southside, Bay Area, Annaville, Portland, Robstown and the neighborhoods in between. Not sure you're in range? A quick call sorts it out.
Depends on your home and budget. Plywood board-up is affordable and works well if it's cut and labeled ahead of time. If you weather storms often, pre-made panels or track shutters are faster year to year — we install and store either one for you.
Absolutely. Post-storm we handle the smaller stuff fast: doors that won't close right, torn screens, loose fence sections, weatherstripping and debris. Anything structural or roof-related we refer to a licensed contractor we trust.
Before the season heats up. Late spring is ideal — we can measure and pre-cut panels so that when a system is actually in the Gulf, install is a quick, calm job instead of a frantic one.
We can. Many homeowners have us label each panel by window, then stack and store them flat in a garage or shed so they stay straight and ready. Come next season we pull them out, and because they're already cut and marked, install is a quick morning rather than a frantic afternoon.
Quite a bit. With a key and a clear list, we can install board-up, secure outdoor items, shut off what should be shut off, and send photos before we leave. After the storm we can be your eyes on the ground, checking the property and starting the punch list before you're back.
Snap a picture of the storm prep & board-up, add a line or two about it, and we'll text back a fair price and the soonest slot we can be out your way.
