Storm restoration in Port St. Joe
Port St. Joe is a city of about 3,400 on Florida's Panhandle Forgotten Coast in Gulf County, and it carries the mark of Hurricane Michael more visibly than most communities in the region. Michael came ashore as a Category 5 storm in October 2018 and drove 9 to 14 feet of surge across roughly 30 miles of coastline through this county, destroying over 985 structures outright. The eastern portions of the county also face recurrent Apalachicola and Chipola river flooding when storm rainfall pushes river stages toward flood thresholds. Storm Damage 911 connects Port St. Joe homeowners with vetted, licensed local contractors for a free assessment.

Local specialists for Port St. Joe storm damage
Gulf County sits on Florida's Panhandle "Forgotten Coast" and faces a severe hurricane threat from storms tracking northeast across the warm Gulf of Mexico. Hurricane Michael made Category 5 landfall near the county in October 2018, driving 9 to 14 feet of storm surge along roughly 30 miles of coastline from Tyndall Air Force Base to Port St. Joe, destroying over 985 structures and damaging more than 2,000 county-wide. Beyond coastal surge, the county is exposed to extreme straight-line winds (Michael's sustained winds exceeded 160 mph at landfall), and the eastern portions along the Apalachicola and Chipola rivers face recurrent inland riverine flooding that triggers voluntary evacuations when river stages approach 22 to 24 feet.
