Keep Your Florida Home Safe with My Safe Florida Home

The My Safe Florida Home program provides free windstorm inspections and matching grants to help Florida homeowners retrofit their houses. The program aims to strengthen homes against hurricane-force winds and windborne debris.

Upgrades like a secondary water barrier, reinforced roof deck attachments, and storm shutters can prevent costly damage during storms. They also result in insurance discounts in many cases.

 

 

To qualify for the My Safe Florida Home program, you must have:

  • A site-built, single-family home or townhouse in Florida. Mobile homes do not qualify.
  • A home built before January 1, 2008
  • Home insurance coverage of $700,000 or less
  • Homeowners of all income levels can get a free inspection. Lower-income households may receive up to a $10,000 matching grant for recommended upgrades.

 

 

The My Safe Florida Home program walks you through protecting your home step-by-step:
