Florida Property Owners Urged to Request Stormseal® Protection for Damaged Structures

The innovative storm protection solution heat shrinks to damaged structures, providing superior protection over flapping tarps that lead to additional damage.

Stormseal, the game-changing storm response solution that provides powerful protection to homes and buildings until permanent repairs can be made, is urging property owners in areas ravaged by Hurricane Ian to contact a Stormseal-certified contractor for temporary protection of their homes or businesses.  

 “The amount of devastation caused by Hurricane Ian is heartbreaking,” said Matthew Lennox, CEO of Stormseal. “With existing material shortage challenges, permanent repairs could be months away. Property owners should ask their insurers and contractors to install Stormseal because it seals the structure to keep rain out, preventing further damage for up to a year or more.”

Often following storms of this magnitude, contractors are backlogged for months with repair work. Making matters even worse are the existing material shortages that the building industry has been facing. Placing tarps on damaged homes and buildings results in them flapping in the wind or blowing off completely, allowing rain to enter the structure and cause further damage. Stormseal eliminates that problem by sealing itself around damaged roofs and walls to provide unsurpassed temporary protection from the elements until permanent repairs can be made.

“When Hurricane Michael slammed into Mexico Beach, Florida in 2018, it was months until damaged homes could be repaired,” said Lennox. “Stormseal made many homes 100 percent watertight and prevented further damage. Residents of hard-hit Florida communities can enjoy that same level of protection when they ask for Stormseal.”

More recently Stormseal was selected by FEMA and the USACE to assist following Hurricane Ida in Louisiana. Stormseal has protected more than 5,000 properties in the United States and over 12,000 worldwide. Waterproof, able to withstand hail and 100-mile-per-hour winds, Stormseal is the smart choice for temporary protection.
