Rebuilding Estero Island
Ian's storm surge in 2022 hit Estero Island harder than almost anywhere in Lee County. Many homes that survived needed new interiors, new openings, or both, and plenty of owners are still working through that list.
Island projects come with rules mainland jobs don't always face. The Town of Fort Myers Beach handles its own permitting, and homes in flood zones may fall under FEMA's substantial improvement rule, which can cap how much work goes into a ground-level house before it has to meet current flood standards. Knowing where your project stands before you spend money is the first step.
