Remodeling in Estero: What to Know
Estero homes are mostly newer, many in gated and HOA communities. Projects tend to be kitchen and bath upgrades, lanai and outdoor kitchen additions, and interior updates. HOA architectural approval usually comes before the village permit, and we handle both.
Permits and the 50% Rule
Permits are issued by the Village of Estero Community Development 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.

How long does a home addition take?
Most additions take about 4 to 8 months including design and permitting, depending on size and permit review times.
Do you do kitchen and bathroom remodels?
Yes. We handle kitchen and bathroom remodels from design through final inspection.
