Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Most people don’t even think about preparing their construction site because it’s not written into their "construction timeline." But when a hurricane threatens, general contractors usually get panicked phone calls asking about potential damage, delays and cost.It is often difficult to understand the differences between those two concepts: the organization on one hand and the business process on the other.

You’ve invested a lot of resources into your construction project, so insist that your contractor safeguard it the same way that you safeguard your home.

Preparation Timing – A construction site has infinitely more hazards than a completed building, so it is reasonable to assume that the site won’t be properly secured in one day. Depending on the size of the project, your general contractor should start preparing your site three to five days in advance of the storm. 2. Actual Building Preparation – Your general contractor should complete a structural analysis of your building to assess its weaknesses in the days prior to the storm. Is the roof up? Are any of the frames or trusses exposed? Are the exterior openings exposed? Any work that will help the structural integrity of the building should continue if it can be completed in time (this might include concrete or roofing). At the same time, any work that is highly vulnerable to damage (like landscaping or exterior painting), should be put on hold until after the storm. 3. Exterior Site Preparation – Any lose material like 2x4’s, rebar, scaffolding, and roofing tile could become a dangerous projectile. Your general contractor should secure all of these items to protect your building and to protect surrounding businesses and homes. Larger jobsites might require an engineering consultation to properly secure materials.

Construction Documents – The same way that you would want to protect insurance documents or a mortgage, your general contractor should be protecting the jobsite documentation in a waterproof container, or relocating it to the contractor’s main office. 5. Builders Risk Insurance – This is a policy that the general contractor purchases on your behalf. It is your policy to protect your investment, so make sure that you read it thoroughly and understand it. Specifically, you should be aware the following: a.
