Someone local to handle storm prep and check on your property afterward, when you can't get here yourself.
Additional home care — billed separately
Why It Matters HereHurricane season is a specific kind of stress for an absentee owner
Watching a storm track toward Babcock Ranch from another state, with no way to personally shutter windows, secure outdoor items, or check on damage afterward, is one of the most stressful parts of owning a seasonal home in Florida. This is a real, recurring concern for the retirees and snowbirds who make up much of the community — and it's exactly the kind of need a local, on-the-ground contact is built to address.
Billed Separately, Scoped Per Storm
Because every storm and every property is different, hurricane services are quoted and billed separately from the standard membership rather than bundled into a flat monthly rate that wouldn't reflect the actual work involved.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this part of the membership, or a separate charge?
It's additional home care — billed separately from the standard monthly membership, since the scope depends heavily on the specific storm, your property's features, and how much lead time there is.
What counts as storm preparation?
This is scoped per storm and per property, upon request — think of it as the pre-storm actions a homeowner would normally handle themselves if they were in town.
What about after a storm passes?
Follow-up is available upon request, subject to safe conditions and availability — Guardian won't visit an area before it's confirmed safe to do so.
How far in advance should I request storm prep?
As early as possible once a storm is being tracked toward Southwest Florida. Availability during an active hurricane threat is limited — earlier requests get priority.
Is there a guaranteed response time?
No — storm requests are handled based on availability, not a guaranteed timeline. See Issue Response & Coordination for how communication and next steps work.
