How It Works
Three simple steps to get your home protected.
Post Your Job
Take photos of your windows, doors, and anything that needs work, answer our simple pre-built questions, and set your timeline. Your personal information, like your address and phone number, stays private until you hire someone.
Get Fixed Quotes — No Site Visits
Local handymen and contractors review your photos and job details, then send you transparent fixed-price quotes — all without setting foot on your property. No more scheduling 5 different appointments or waiting around all day. Communicate privately through your secure dashboard before you commit to anyone.
You're In Control — Pay Only When Done
Your payment is held in secure escrow via Stripe the entire time. The handyman only gets paid when YOU approve the completed work. Not happy? Don't release the funds. It's that simple. Stripe holds the money — Hurricane Handyman never touches your funds.

Putting Up Shutters
Get your permanent hurricane shutters installed fast by a local handyman or contractor — before the storm hits. Fixed prices, no site visits, pay only when done.
Put Up & Take Down Shutters
One contractor handles everything — permanent shutters up before the storm, taken down after it passes. The most popular service on Hurricane Handyman.
Taking Down Shutters
Tired after the storm? Let a local handyman or contractor remove your permanent hurricane shutters and return everything to storage. Post your job and get competing quotes today.
Install Shutters
Stop paying showroom prices for hurricane shutter installation. We connect you directly with local installers at wholesale pricing through Hurricane Shutters Wholesale.
Shutter Repairs
A broken shutter is worse than no shutter. Get your accordion, rolldown, storm panels, or Bahama shutters repaired fast by a local specialist before hurricane season.
Service Contract
Schedule regular professional maintenance for your hurricane shutters so they work perfectly when you need them most. Never face storm season with a broken shutter again.
Storm Preparation & Cleanup
Need help securing loose items, bringing in furniture, or preparing your yard before a storm? Find a reliable local handyman or contractor to handle the heavy lifting while you focus on your family.
Tree Trimming & Removal
Overhanging branches and dead limbs become dangerous projectiles in a hurricane. Get professional pre-storm tree trimming that could save thousands in roof and property damage.
Window Installation
Tired of putting up shutters every hurricane season? Impact-resistant windows provide permanent 24/7 protection with no action required — ever.
Roof Repairs
Loose shingles or a small leak today becomes a catastrophic failure during a hurricane. Get a licensed roofer or contractor to inspect and repair your roof before storm season — it could save you tens of thousands in damage.
Garage Door
Your garage door is the most vulnerable opening on your home during a hurricane. Unreinforced doors can fail catastrophically under storm conditions — get professional bracing or replacement today.
Gutter Cleaning
Clogged gutters during a hurricane cause roof damage, flooding, and foundation erosion. Schedule professional gutter cleaning before storm season to protect your entire home.
Pool Prep
Protect your pool equipment and surrounding area from hurricane damage. Our pool service professionals handle pre-storm and post-storm preparation so you don't have to.
Generator Install
Don't let a multi-day power outage become a crisis. Get a licensed electrician or contractor to install and properly connect your generator before the next hurricane season.
Fence Repair
Hurricane winds turn poorly maintained fences into dangerous projectiles. Get professional fence reinforcement or repair before storm season — far cheaper than full replacement after.
Lanai / Screen
Protect your screen enclosure from hurricane damage by having it professionally removed before a major storm and reinstalled after. Simple, affordable, and far better than replacing it.
Roof Tarping
Every hour after hurricane roof damage means more water intrusion and higher repair costs. Get emergency roof tarping fast to prevent a manageable repair from becoming a catastrophic loss.
Water Extraction
Standing water after a hurricane must be addressed within 24-48 hours to prevent mold and structural damage. Get professional water extraction and dry-out service immediately.
Debris Removal
After a hurricane your yard is a war zone. Get competing quotes from local debris removal crews and get your property cleaned up fast so you can focus on recovery.
Impact Doors
Impact-resistant doors provide permanent hurricane protection for every entry point — no shutters to hang, no plywood to cut, ever again.
Weatherproofing
Gaps and cracks around your home become serious vulnerabilities during a hurricane. Professional weatherproofing stops wind-driven rain before it causes interior damage.
Wind Mitigation
Many states offer wind mitigation grant programs offering thousands of dollars for hurricane protection upgrades. Get a wind mitigation inspection to maximize your grant eligibility and slash your insurance premiums.

What Homeowners Say
Real customers across the country and the Caribbean.
“Booked the install in May and the removal popped up in my dashboard the day after the storm passed. Same handyman, both visits. Way easier than scrambling to find someone in November.”
Marcus T.
Houston, TX
“Storm came through and I needed documentation fast. Handyman walked the property the next morning, gave me a PDF report with photos, GPS, the whole thing. I had it in my insurance file before the adjuster arrived.”
Linda P.
Wilmington, NC
“Measured every opening, gave me a clean spec sheet, and pointed me to Hurricane Shutters Wholesale to order direct. The measurement fee credited toward the install when I hired the same guy back.”
