Florida man's strap-down house Survived The Hurricane

This cost about twenty thousand pounds for the made to measure straps and concrete.

 The concrete had to be eight feet deep. Not like erecting a tent which takes you a short time. 

However, I have seen what the cost is of cleaning up, re-housing, repairing buildings. And you need to clear your garden and nearby roads.

You must replace lost possessions exposed to rain.

Add in the cost of paying for hotels during the hurricane and waiting for the roof to be repaired. Maybe the cost of concrete and straps is worth it for an individual, a major building, or even a whole street. Consider campaigning for a grant from the governement or local city or charity or a whip round. \
