For a manufactured home in Florida, proper anchoring is not a suggestion—it's a critical safety requirement. A mobile home is vulnerable to the uplift and lateral forces of hurricane winds. A robust, code-compliant tie-down system is essential to protect your home and family from storm damage.
Bonita Springs is in a high-risk wind zone, meaning homes must have anchoring systems engineered for significant wind speeds. These codes are enforced by the state and are often required for homeowner's insurance. An outdated or improperly installed system puts your home at risk and can jeopardize your insurance coverage. Our installations are always performed in strict accordance with current Florida statutes.
Bonita Springs's sandy soil requires specialized anchors to achieve the necessary holding power. We use high-quality anchors with deep helical blades that screw deep into the ground for a superior grip.
Code Compliance Inspection: We inspect your existing system for rust, damage, and compliance with current Florida codes.
Strategic Anchor Installation: We install the correct number and type of auger anchors for your home's size and wind-zone requirements.
Precision Strap Tensioning: We attach galvanized steel straps from the anchors to your home's steel frame and use professional tools to achieve the correct tension.
Optional Longitudinal Stabilizers: For ultimate protection against side-to-side movement, we can install longitudinal stabilizers for extra reinforcement
How many tie-downs does my mobile home need?
The required number depends on the age and size of your home and its wind-zone classification. We calculate the exact requirement during your free inspection.
How often should tie-downs be inspected?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once a year, ideally before hurricane season begins on June 1st, and after any major storm.
What's the difference between frame anchors and "over-the-top" tie-downs?
Over-the-top tie-downs are an older style. Frame anchors, which attach directly to the home's steel I-beam chassis, are the modern, stronger, and code-compliant standard. They provide superior resistance to wind forces.
