Built for the Treasure Coast

Martin County Carports Built for Treasure Coast Weather

Martin County runs from Atlantic beaches and river neighborhoods to ranch land in the west. As a result, owners deal with hurricane winds, coastal flood zones, environmental buffers and heavy summer rain.

  • Hurricane wind loads: sealed engineering for the design wind speed at your exact address.
  • Elevations and drainage: the county’s survey must show NAVD elevations and proposed drainage, so we plan the pad to match.
  • Buffers and preserves: site plans must show buffers and preserve areas, and we keep the building clear of them.
  • Heavy rain: vertical roofs shed water and debris fastest.

Our Martin County recommendation

Vertical roof, certified engineering, galvanized framing.

In our experience, this setup holds up best to Florida storms and summer downpours. It is also what plan reviewers expect to see on the drawings.
