Serving Pensacola and Escambia County
Pensacola is the county seat of Escambia County, in the far western Panhandle. We serve homeowners in Pensacola, Ensley, Ferry Pass, Warrington, Cantonment, Molino and Century, plus Milton, Pace, Gulf Breeze and Navarre in Santa Rosa County.
Escambia and Santa Rosa counties are in HUD Wind Zone II. North of the city, many manufactured homes are on rural land around Cantonment, Molino and Century; closer to the bays and the Gulf, salt air and storm exposure are the bigger worries. We check anchors, strap condition and tension, and level on every inspection.
Escambia County wind zone & storm notes
Escambia County is in HUD Wind Zone II. Every Florida county is in Wind Zone II or III, so even inland homes are built and anchored for high wind. Pensacola has been hit by two major storms that made landfall just to the west at Gulf Shores, Alabama: Hurricane Ivan in 2004, which brought a 10 to 15 foot storm surge to the western Panhandle, and Hurricane Sally in 2020, which brought gusts over 90 mph and heavy flooding rain to Pensacola, according to the National Weather Service.
Wind zones: 24 CFR 3280.305.
A tip for Pensacola homeowners
North Escambia homes on open rural lots take the full force of the wind. Make sure your home has longitudinal ties on both ends, not just side straps; many older installs here never had them.
