Spring Storm Season Is Here – Is Your Savannah, GA Home Protected?

Spring in Savannah, GA brings warm breezes, blooming azaleas—and the beginning of storm season along the coast. With unpredictable weather, strong winds, and heavy rain becoming more common from March through June, now is the time to ask: Is your home storm-ready?

At Coastal Canvas Products, we’ve been helping homeowners protect and enhance their properties since 1975. With nearly 50 years of experience in storm protection, custom awnings, retractable roofs, and outdoor living solutions, we understand what it takes to safeguard a coastal home without sacrificing comfort or style.

In this post, we’ll explore the best ways to prepare your Savannah-area home for spring storms—using expert-grade materials, smart design, and trusted craftsmanship.

Why Spring Storm Preparedness Matters in Coastal Georgia

While hurricane season doesn’t officially start until June, spring storms in Savannah can still cause significant damage. High winds, intense rain, and even early tropical systems can roll in with little warning.

Without the right protection, your windows, doors, patios, and outdoor spaces are vulnerable to:

  • Wind damage
  • Flying debris
  • Water intrusion
  • Interior fading or destruction

Getting ahead of storm season doesn’t just protect your property—it gives you peace of mind, knowing you’re prepared before the first storm hits.

Storm Protection Solutions That Work—and Look Great

Protecting your home doesn't mean sacrificing curb appeal. At Coastal Canvas Products, we specialize in functional storm protection that blends seamlessly with your home’s aesthetic. Our in-house team designs and installs every system with precision and care.

Here are some of our most popular solutions for storm season in Savannah:

1. Bahama Shutters

  • Provide both storm protection and shade
  • Installed above windows, hinged at the top for easy deployment
  • Available in a range of colors and styles
  • Crafted with durable, powder-coated aluminum fabrication

These shutters are a favorite among Lowcountry homeowners for their charm and practicality. Learn more about our shutters.

2. Accordion Shutters

  • Easy to use—simply slide and lock into place
  • Perfect for larger openings, like patio enclosures or sliding glass doors
  • Discreet when not in use and extremely durable during storms

3. Roll-Down Impact Screens

  • Motorized or manual operation
  • Double as sun shades when storms aren’t on the radar
  • Seamlessly integrate with retractable roofs and porches

They’re an ideal solution for homeowners who want dual-purpose storm protection and outdoor living comfort. Consider our motorized screens.

4. Storm Panels

  • Lightweight, removable panels
  • Cost-effective option for seasonal protection
  • Custom-fit for windows, doors, or open patios

These panels are a smart choice for vacation homes or homeowners on a budget.

Don't Forget About Covered Outdoor Spaces

Outdoor living solutions—like patio enclosures, custom awnings, and SummerSpace® Glass Enclosures—are a great way to expand usable space, but they need protection too.
