What storm repair costs
Storm repair pricing depends entirely on the damage, so there is no reliable published range. Get a written, itemized scope from a licensed contractor and share it with your insurer.
On a barrier island, salt air is constant and wind exposure is high. It is worth asking about stainless or coated fasteners, corrosion-resistant hardware and how the bid accounts for wind-load engineering.
What the job usually includes
- Damage assessment and photos for your insurance claim
- Making the structure safe (removing hanging members)
- Replacing bent or broken framing and anchors
- Rescreening and, for total losses, permitted rebuilds
How to choose a Sanibel contractor
- Check the license on the Florida DBPR site; unlicensed post-storm crews are a known problem
- Never pay the full amount up front
- Ask who pulls the permit for structural repairs
- Get a written scope you can share with your insurer
- Verify the license on the Florida DBPR site and ask for proof of insurance
