Questions and answers
What does solid block construction mean?
The exterior walls are concrete masonry rather than wood frame. Block resists wind-borne debris and does not carry the same fire and rot exposure as stick framing.
Are the windows and doors impact rated?
Yes. Every opening is hurricane impact-rated windows and doors, so shutters do not need to be installed before a storm.
Does elevation matter as much as construction?
Both matter, and they answer different risks. Impact-rated openings and block walls answer wind; approximately 21 feet of elevation above the floodplain answers water.
What does this mean for insurance?
Florida insurers price wind coverage in part on construction type and opening protection. Terms are set by the carrier, not by the builder.
