If you are considering building a new home in the Cape Coral, FL area then you need to work with a builder that is knowledgeable on how to make your home hurricane resistant. Don Salyers Masonry & General Contractors, LLC has experience in designing and building hurricane resistant homes. There are several different components that will make your home more hurricane resistant such as:
- Exceeding engineering for footing and wall reinforcing than what code requires.
- Steel is placed from the footing up through the block walls and into tie-beam. Then we anchor the tie-beam to the truss with hurricane straps.
- Installing high impact windows and doors that can withstand higher winds and debris.
- Using more and larger steel rebars than required.
