Rebuilding after a natural disaster like Hurricane Ian, Dorian or Irma is not a simple task. Topsider Homes has decades of experience with hurricane and flood damage rebuilding in Florida and the Bahamas. We are experienced dealing with federal, state and local agencies like FEMA, the US Army Corps of Engineers and even the SBA and other funding organizations that provide assistance during such events.

To begin the process, we will propose new house design concepts and provide general cost guidance so that you will have an idea of the cost to rebuild with a Topsider Home. With no obligation our technical staff will do preliminary code research and determine the current state of building requirements – which are always in flux after disasters. And if you select Topsider Homes we become thoroughly engaged in every aspect of your rebuilding project from beginning to end..
