Pre-Loss Planning Helps Gulf Coast Businesses Weather Hurricane Season

Zack Klein • May 28, 2025

Along the Gulf Coast, hurricane season is a fact of life, but business disruption doesn’t have to be. High winds, flooding, and power outages can all spell disaster for commercial properties, especially without a plan in place. Fortunately, Guarantee Restoration Services’ pre-loss planning services are built specifically to help businesses in hurricane-prone regions prepare smarter, minimize damage, and recover faster.


Here’s how your business can benefit from having a hurricane-specific plan before the first storm warning even hits.


Create a Hurricane-Ready Response Plan with the Ready Action Plan (RAP)™

Time is critical when a storm is approaching. Our team’s Ready Action Plan (RAP)™ software gives your business instant access to a detailed emergency response plan tailored to your property. It includes everything from shut-off locations and critical vendor contacts to prioritized procedures and property-specific notes—all stored digitally and accessible 24/7.


Having this kind of centralized information means your team can take immediate, coordinated action to protect your assets and ensure safety before, during, and after the storm.


Minimize Damage with Site Assessments and Matterport Documentation

Pre-loss planning goes beyond just having a checklist. GRS performs in-depth walkthroughs of your property before storm season begins, using Matterport 3D imaging to create a detailed digital model of your space. This technology captures every room, wall, and system with accuracy, creating a visual record that becomes essential if you need to file an insurance claim.


By assessing vulnerabilities in advance, such as roof weaknesses, drainage issues, or outdated backup power systems, we help you shore up your defenses and reduce the risk of severe storm-related damage.


Get Faster Help with Streamlined Hurricane Response

After a storm, every minute counts. Guarantee Restoration Services’ pre-loss planning services are designed to eliminate delays and ensure your business gets the help it needs—fast.


With your property details pre-loaded into our Ready Action Plan (RAP)™ software, our crews arrive already familiar with your facility layout, critical systems, and emergency protocols. That means no time lost to on-site assessments or confusion. We know your priorities, your risks, and your plan, so we can act immediately.


This proactive approach allows us to begin mitigation faster, reduce the severity of storm-related damage, and accelerate your path to full recovery.


Avoid Business Downtime and Closure After a Storm

Storm damage can keep a business closed for weeks or even permanently. Pre-loss planning helps prevent that outcome by giving you a strategic advantage in both preparation and recovery. The faster you can act, the more likely you are to limit financial losses and maintain trust with your customers, tenants, or clients.


Businesses across Baton Rouge, Lafayette, New Orleans, Gulfport, Jackson and beyond count on Guarantee Restoration Services to help them plan for hurricane season with confidence. We bring decades of experience in disaster response, and we know what it takes to weather the storm.


Don’t wait until there’s a storm in the Gulf to start thinking about preparation. Contact us today and learn how our pre-loss planning services, combined with RAP software and Matterport documentation, give your business the tools it needs to protect property, people, and profitability.
