ESSENTIAL HURRICANE SUPPLIES : STOCK UP WITH RAYNEAU

When a hurricane is approaching, there’s no time to waste. Being prepared means having the right supplies on hand—before the storm hits. At Rayneau Construction and Industrial Products (RCIP) Ltd., we’ve stocked the essentials that every Caribbean household needs for hurricane readiness.

🛒 Whether you're prepping your home, your family, or your jobsite, here’s a checklist of the Top 10 Must-Have Hurricane Supplies available at our stores:

✅ 2. Tarp & Plastic Sheeting

Protect leaky roofs or broken windows with waterproof tarpaulin and heavy-duty plastic rolls.

✅ 3. Water Containers

Grab jerry cans, gallon bottles, and Rayneau water tanks to store enough clean water for at least 3 days.

✅ 4. First Aid Kit

Your kit should include antiseptics, bandages, gauze, pain relievers, scissors, and any necessary prescriptions.

✅ 5. Portable Gas Stove

BUILDING HURRICANE- RESILIENT HOMES

When it comes to surviving a hurricane, your first line of defense is your home. In the Caribbean, we’ve seen it all—from gale-force winds to devastating floods. So, the question is: Is your house built to withstand it?

At Rayneau, we don’t just build homes—we build safe zones. As this hurricane season gears up to be one of the most active in years, now is the perfect time to take a closer look at the structural integrity of your house or the one you’re planning to build.

🔨 Key Features of a Hurricane-Resilient Home

Here’s what to consider when reinforhcing your existing home—or building a new one:

1. A Strong Foundation

Start with solid concrete footings and steel-reinforced columns. Rayneau Construction follows engineered designs that meet and exceed hurricane standards.

2. Wind-Resistant Roofing

Your roof is your most vulnerable point. Choose hip roofs with a pitch of 30° or less, metal roofing sheets, hurricane straps, and fasteners designed to withstand Category 4 or 5 winds.

3. Impact-Resistant Windows & Doors

Glass windows should be fitted with hurricane shutters or made from laminated glass. Doors should swing outward and be secured with three hinges and deadbolt locks.

4. Proper Drainage Systems

Prevent water buildup and flooding by ensuring your property has proper sloping, gutters, and French drains.

5. Safe Rooms

Consider a reinforced room or basement where your family can stay protected during a storm.

🧱 What Rayneau Offers

At Rayneau, we use durable materials and trusted construction methods tailored to withstand tropical weather systems. Our experts ensure that every project we touch is up to code and hurricane-ready.

Whether you’re looking to upgrade your current structure or start from scratch, we provide:

✔️ Structural assessments
✔️ Retrofitting services
✔️ Concrete and steel works
✔️ Roofing and drainage solutions
