A hard Florida rain can reveal a property issue before it becomes an expensive repair. After the weather clears, check five places:
1. Lanai and pool-deck drains for standing water or debris.
2. Screen panels and enclosure doors for tears, loose hardware or new gaps.
3. Door thresholds, garage edges and window frames for water intrusion.
4. Interior ceilings and window corners for fresh discoloration.
5. Drainage paths around the home for water collecting against the structure.
Stay on the ground—roof work belongs to a qualified professional. If something looks new, photograph it, note the date and arrange an inspection before the next round of rain.
