How to Prep for a Business Boom after a Major Storm

With 21 named storms so far in 2023, this hurricane season is more active than usual.

As homeowners keep their fingers crossed, hoping the next big one doesn’t come for their home, contractors must prepare for a boom in business from those who do find themselves in the storm’s path, thanks to an inevitable plethora of damaged and destroyed roofs.

If you’re not prepared for that type of influx of customers, you could lose out on countless jobs — and the money they bring with them.
