Home Remodeling in Anna Maria, FL

Yes. The City of Anna Maria has explicit architectural standards designed to preserve the town's old-Florida cottage character — including height restrictions, lot coverage rules, and design review for exterior changes. We submit and coordinate the architectural review process and design to fit the town's standards.

Yes — Anna Maria has an active vacation rental market and many of our remodels are short-term-rental properties. We schedule work around the rental season (typically off-season summer/fall) when occupancy is lower, and we focus on durable finishes that handle high turnover.

Barrier-island wind code (140 mph design wind speed, full impact-rated assemblies), FEMA flood elevation for waterfront properties, and the City of Anna Maria's specific architectural and structural standards. We design and build to all of these from day one.

Marine-grade stainless steel and bronze hardware, cement board siding or properly-detailed wood with high-performance paint, metal roofing or impact-rated tile, and humidity-resistant interior finishes. We avoid materials prone to salt-air corrosion or humidity damage.

Many older Anna Maria cottages have valuable original character worth preserving. Others have structural issues, FEMA flood elevation considerations, or layouts that don't work for modern use — making rebuild more practical. We assess each property individually with you.
