Hurricane Beryl, another Category 5 storm of the 2024 season, peaked at 165 mph and led to widespread fear of catastrophic damage in the early weeks of July. However, due to its ultimate trajectory and certain environmental factors, Beryl’s damage totals hovered around $8.07 billion. The Luxury Pergola installed base saw no problems. During and after the storm, owners did not submit any warranty claims or express concern over damage. The post-hurricane inspection window concluded with a 100% damage-free record for The Luxury Pergola.

Hurricane Francine reached Category 2 strength at 100 mph. Although less severe in wind speed compared to Category 4 and 5 storms, Category 2 hurricanes remain dangerous, particularly in coastal areas prone to flooding. Again, The Luxury Pergola owners reported no issues related to Francine’s impact. During the three-month observation period that followed, no structural or cosmetic concerns were raised, no service calls logged, and no warranty assistance requested.

Hurricane Milton became one of the most intense storms of the 2024 season. Peaking at 180 mph, it achieved Category 5 status, often referred to as the most catastrophic level of hurricane intensity. Areas within Milton’s path faced severe wind gusts, torrential rain, and devastating storm surges. The storm resulted in over $85 billion in recorded damages. The Luxury Pergola units once again emerged unscathed. Observationally, Category 5 winds are capable of lifting rooftops, uprooting large trees, and even compromising concrete structures. Nevertheless, there were no reports of structural compromise from The Luxury Pergola community.
