Ready Your Home for Hurricane Season

Hurricane season is upon us, and now is the time to prepare your home. Over the years, the CAM team has guided clients through the aftermaths of Tropical Storm Allison and Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Ike, and Harvey. Based on our expertise, planning ahead and completing certain tasks well ahead of potential emergencies will minimize damage to your home and maximize safety for your family. Below we’ve compiled some simple tips to get you started.   

• Trim large shrubs and trees. Remove any insecure large branches. 

• Clear out space for storing patio furniture should a storm approach.

• Make copies of important documents and store the originals in a safe deposit box at a separate secure location. 

• Locate water, gas, and electrical shut-offs.

• Create an evacuation plan. 

• Create a storm kit to include basic emergency supplies:

  • Non-perishable food, water, and medications for at least three days

  • Battery-powered radio and/or a NOAA Weather receiver

  • Flashlight

  • Extra batteries

  • First aid kit

  • Cash

  • Hand sanitizer

  • Whistle

  • Dust masks, plastic sheeting, and duct tape

  • Baby wipes

  • Garbage bags

  • Wrench or pliers

  • Can opener

  • Pet foods, leashes, and medications

  • Solar-powered cell phone charger

Welcome to the new CAM website!

After decades in the construction business, we are beyond excited to unveil our refreshed logo and welcome you to our new website. 

At CAM we strive to create spaces that marry beauty and function—and our vision for the new logo and website was no different. CAM’s new clean-lined graphics and simple, straightforward website layout reflect our approach to building and create ease for those seeking to learn more about us.  

We partnered with Megan Davis of Toast & Laurel to embark on this visual makeover. With her design proficiency and impeccable taste, Megan deftly guided us towards an elusive objective: updated, graphically distinctive branding that reflects an unwavering commitment to our mission. Writer Sarah Beth Seifert helped us tell the CAM story, composing fresh website copy and curating content for our newsletter, blog, and social media. 

We hope you enjoy browsing the new CAM website, which now features more of our projects and enhanced descriptions of our services and community partners. Be sure to subscribe to our newsletter and check our Instagram to learn more about current projects and our approach to what we do.
