🌀 Hurricane Ian Changed Everything in Fort Myers

Hurricane Ian (2022) caused over $115 billion in damage — Fort Myers and Lee County were ground zero. Since Ian, insurance companies across Florida have tightened requirements: most now mandate hurricane shutters or impact windows for windstorm coverage. Homes without certified protection face premium surcharges of 20-50% or outright policy non-renewal. Don't wait for the next storm — protect your home and your insurance now.

🏠 Insurance Mandates — What Fort Myers Homeowners Need to Know

Post-Ian, Citizens Property Insurance and major private carriers require documentation of wind-mitigation features including hurricane shutters. A completed Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Form (1802) can reduce your premium by hundreds or thousands annually. Our matched contractors provide all documentation you need: NOA compliance certificates, permit records, and wind mitigation verification.

✅ Gulf Coast homes need certified hurricane protection. Whether you choose affordable storm panels, convenient accordion shutters, premium roll-downs, or year-round impact windows, our vetted local contractors install products that meet Florida's strictest codes. From Cape Coral canals to Sanibel beachfronts — we'll match you with a pro who knows Lee County's wind zones and permit requirements inside and out. Call (239) 445-0349 for a free consultation.
