Serving Port Charlotte and Charlotte County
Port Charlotte is the largest community in Charlotte County, on the north shore of Charlotte Harbor across from Punta Gorda, the county seat. We serve owners from Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda to Englewood, Rotonda West, Harbour Heights, Deep Creek and North Port.
Charlotte County is in HUD Wind Zone III, while DeSoto County just to the north is in Zone II. Homes here face harbor and Gulf exposure, salt air and a long history of strong storms, so anchors, frame ties and marriage-line ties need to be in top shape. We inspect for corrosion, missing ties and loose straps and replace what’s needed to meet Florida’s tie-down standards.
Charlotte County wind zone & storm notes
Charlotte County is in HUD Wind Zone III, the highest of HUD’s wind zones, so homes here must be designed for Wind Zone III loads and anchored to match. Few places in Florida have been tested like this one. Hurricane Charley made landfall near Punta Gorda as a Category 4 in 2004, and the National Hurricane Center reports that Hurricane Ian’s eye made a second landfall near Punta Gorda in 2022, shortly after coming ashore at Cayo Costa.
Wind zones: 24 CFR 3280.305.
A tip for Port Charlotte homeowners
If your home was repaired after Charley or Ian, ask us to confirm the tie-downs were put back correctly. Repairs sometimes leave straps loose, cut or reused, and that’s easy to miss from outside the skirting.
