Before a storm, check the pool enclosure from the ground.
While the weather is calm, move loose patio items inside and note visible screen, door or frame damage without climbing. Once a storm threatens, follow local emergency instructions first.

This photo does not show storm damage. A ground-level look cannot establish structural safety.
Three useful steps before the weather turns
Stay on firm ground. Leave roof, overhead cable and loose frame work to a professional.
Bring loose patio items inside
Move chairs, small tables, planters and tools out of the enclosure or store them securely before winds arrive. Loose items can become flying debris. Check the home's other outdoor areas too.
Note damage from firm ground
Look for torn or missing panels, a door that will not latch, visibly loose connections, or a frame that seems to have moved. Do not climb on the enclosure, pull roof screen or test a loose cable.
Ask about repairs early
Tell us whether the problem involves screen, a door, fastener or frame. A repair review can sort out the scope. We cannot promise work before a storm.
When a storm threatens
Stop enclosure work before conditions become unsafe. Watch the National Weather Service Jacksonville office and your local emergency management office for current instructions. Follow any evacuation order. During the storm, shelter inside and away from windows; the pool enclosure is not a shelter.
The National Weather Service hurricane guidance covers home preparation, official alerts and sheltering.
What to send for a repair quote
Give your city or ZIP, the number and location of visibly damaged panels, and whether a door, cable, connection or frame also looks wrong. If you already have photos taken safely, email them to us; the quote form does not accept attachments.
