The Difference Shows When the Weather Turns
Living near the coast comes with a lot of beauty, but it also means your exterior is up against a tough combination of salt air, humidity, and seasonal storms. These conditions wear on surfaces quietly and consistently, so vulnerabilities that seem minor at the beginning of the year can become real problems down the road.
At A+ Pro Services, we've spent over 26 years working alongside homeowners, property managers, and HOAs in Southeastern NC, and we know firsthand how much easier recovery is when preparation happens well before the clouds roll in. Our team handles the hands-on work of getting your building ready before a storm hits and helps you bounce back once it's passed.
How Minor Wear Turns Into Major Risk
Most of the issues that cause real damage during a storm aren't dramatic ones. They're the gradual kind that build up over time and go unnoticed until conditions put them to the test.
Gutters that handle everyday rain just fine may not keep up with the volume a major storm pushes through. Salt and organic buildup work their way into siding and hold moisture against surfaces for far longer than most people realize. Roof algae looks like a cosmetic nuisance, but underneath it, shingles can be wearing down in ways that only show up when it matters most. Even driveways, windows, and porch enclosures take on more stress during storm season than at any other time of year.
That's why preparation means more than reacting when a storm is already on the radar. By then, our schedules are packed, and there's little time to address the underlying issues that can lead to costly repairs. We’re here to help you find those weak spots before the storm does.

Essential Pre-Storm Services
A+ Pro Services takes a targeted approach to storm prep, focusing on the spots that have the biggest impact on how your property holds up.
This typically includes:
Gutter Cleaning: When the rain is coming down hard and fast, your gutters are the first line of defense against water intrusion. We’ll make sure yours are completely free-flowing so water moves where it's supposed to, not where it isn't.
Roof Cleaning & Algae Removal: That dark streaking across your roof isn't just an eyesore. It traps moisture and covers up wear. A freshly treated roof tells you a lot more about its condition than one that's been left alone.
House Washing & Soft Washing: Your siding takes on salt, grime, and organic buildup year-round, often without you noticing. Our soft washing process gently removes all of it so your exterior is prepared for storm season, not just glanced at.
Window & EZE Breeze Cleaning: Dirty glass hides things worth knowing, such as weak seals, hairline cracks, and spots that deserve attention before conditions get rough. We treat standard windows and EZE Breeze systems with the care each one requires.
Driveway & Hardscape Cleaning: Salt and algae are sneaky on hard surfaces. They create slick spots, break down materials, and compound over time. Think of it as giving your hardscape a fighting chance before the season puts them to work.
Sealing & Waterproofing: The coast doesn't give your surfaces a break, even on a calm, sunny day. A quality sealant won't stop the coast from doing what it does, but it puts up a serious fight and buys your surfaces a lot more time in the process.
The Process We Use After Years on the Coast
01. Plan
Everything starts with a look at where things stand. We’ll walk your property with you, looking at drainage, exterior surfaces, vulnerable features, and anything else that deserves our attention.
And we’re always straightforward about what we find. If something needs work, you'll hear about it. If it doesn't, you'll hear that, too.
02. Schedule
Once a storm system develops, availability tightens quickly, and the window to properly prepare gets very small. Getting on the calendar early means you have options, not just whatever's left.
We work with returning clients and first-timers alike to make sure your home or business is buttoned up well before peak season arrives.
03. Perform
This is where the work happens. Before the storm, we’ll secure exterior elements, treat surfaces, and make sure your property is in the strongest position possible.
After the storm passes, we’ll return to remove debris, restore exterior areas, and apply our Salt Defender treatment to address chloride buildup that persists long after the rain stops.
For coastal properties, especially, consistent upkeep isn't optional. It's simply the smarter way to protect what you've invested in.

We serve the full stretch of Southeastern NC's coast. If you're in Wilmington, Leland, Southport, Oak Island, Shallotte, Ocean Isle Beach, Sunset Beach, Holden Beach, or anywhere else in Brunswick County, we've got you covered.

Frequently Asked Questions
Late spring is the sweet spot. It gives you time to clean, inspect, and address anything that needs work before storm activity picks up.
Water management is usually the top priority, which is why we start with gutters and roofs. Beyond that, the right answer really comes down to what your specific property needs.
Not at all. A large portion of our clients are property managers and HOAs overseeing multiple buildings across the area.
Salt exposure and high humidity create ongoing pressure on exterior surfaces that inland properties just don't face. That means more frequent, more proactive attention is part of the job.
