Storm restoration in Perry
Perry is the seat of Taylor County on Florida's Big Bend Gulf Coast, a small city of about 6,900 where 45 miles of low-lying tidal marsh meets some of the most extreme surge physics in the continental United States - shallow offshore bathymetry can drive 10 feet of surge from a Category 1 storm and more than 30 feet from a major hurricane. That risk became undeniable on September 26, 2024, when Hurricane Helene made a direct Category 4 landfall roughly 10 miles west-southwest of Perry with 140 mph sustained winds and surge that destroyed an estimated 70 to 90 percent of structures in coastal communities like Keaton Beach and Steinhatchee. Inland flooding from river systems and prolonged heavy rainfall compounds wind damage well away from the coast. Storm Damage 911 connects Perry homeowners with vetted, licensed local contractors for a free storm damage assessment.

Local specialists for Perry storm damage
Taylor County sits on the Florida Big Bend Gulf Coast, where shallow bathymetry and 45 miles of low-lying tidal marshland produce some of the largest storm surges in the United States - a Category 1 hurricane can drive 10 feet of surge and a Category 4 or 5 can push 34 feet above mean sea level, with inundation reaching 2 to 8 miles inland. The county took a direct Category 4 hit from Hurricane Helene on September 26, 2024, which made landfall roughly 10 miles west-southwest of Perry with 140 mph sustained winds and drove over 15 feet of surge into coastal communities, destroying an estimated 70 to 90 percent of structures in Keaton Beach, Steinhatchee, and Dekle Beach. Inland flooding is compounded by heavy rainfall from slow-moving Gulf systems and the Fenholloway and Steinhatchee river basins, and the county's timber and agriculture industries face additional losses from catastrophic wind damage even well away from the coast.

Is storm damage covered by insurance in Florida?
