A hurricane can inflict severe damage on built environments through high winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges. High winds can tear off roofs, shatter windows, and uproot trees, while heavy rainfall can lead to flooding and water infiltration, damaging structures and causing mold growth. Storm surges can inundate coastal areas, leading to erosion and the destruction of foundations. Overall, the cumulative effects can result in significant structural damage, loss of utilities, and long-term economic impacts.
At the latest estimate damage from Hurricane Irene was over $10.1 billion in USD.the eye of the hurricane
Hurricane Katrina (2005) cost over $108 billion in damage.

Yes, a hurricane can potentially break down a house if it is strong enough. High winds and heavy rain associated with hurricanes can cause significant damage to structures, particularly if they are not built to withstand such powerful forces. It is important for homes in hurricane-prone areas to be built to code and fortified to minimize damage.
The most common (not the only) hurricane damage to a house is heavy damage to, or complete removal of, the roof.
Irene is bordering on a major hurricane, which can do extensive damage through wind damage, flooding, and storm surge. It is a very dangerous hurricane.
Hurricane Fran caused about $1.6 billion dollars of damage.
