Remodeling in Cape Coral: What to Know
Most Cape Coral homes are 1970s to 2000s block ranches on canal or dry lots. Common projects are adding a bedroom or in-law suite, opening up a closed kitchen, converting a garage, and modernizing original bathrooms. Many canal-front homes sit in flood zones, so the 50% rule shapes what is possible.
Permits and the 50% Rule
Permits are issued by the City of Cape Coral Development Services Department. If your home is in a FEMA flood zone below the required elevation, projects that cost 50% or more of the structure value generally require bringing the whole home up to current flood rules. Screen your project with our 50% rule calculator, or let us handle it through our permitting and consulting service.

Do you do kitchen and bathroom remodels?
Yes. We handle kitchen and bathroom remodels from design through final inspection.
