Fort Myers homes carry a century of drywall decisions
Fort Myers is the Lee County seat, the "City of Palms", and one of the older places in Southwest Florida. Near the river and downtown you find historic neighborhoods such as Dean Park and Edison Park, with houses that have been remodeled many times over. Farther out, along the commercial corridors and in newer subdivisions, the construction looks very different.
That mix is why no two Fort Myers walls behave alike. An older house may have plaster, wood lath, or board stacked over earlier work. A newer one is typically block with drywall on furring. Before we decide how to patch or rebuild, we figure out which one we are in.
Water has also been part of the recent story. Hurricane Ian came ashore in Lee County in September 2022 and pushed storm surge up the Caloosahatchee, and many Fort Myers homes took water. Plenty of the wall and ceiling work we do here is still tied to that.

Details from around the city that shape the work:
River flooding zones
Properties near the Caloosahatchee and low-lying streets flooded during Ian. Flood-cut walls need to dry fully before rebuilding.
Older construction
Historic districts like Dean Park and Edison Park include homes with plaster, tall ceilings and layers of past repairs.
City versus county permits
Inside city limits the City of Fort Myers handles permits; just outside, unincorporated Lee County does. The office depends on the address.
Storm damage and insurance claims
Many rebuilds here are tied to insurance claims. Photograph the damage and keep removed material until the adjuster has seen it, before any cleanup starts.
Our reach in Fort Myers
We drive in from Lehigh Acres along State Road 82 and cover neighborhoods from the River District to McGregor Boulevard and out toward Daniels Parkway.
Questions from Fort Myers homeowners
Do you serve Fort Myers, or only Lehigh Acres?
Both. We are based in Lehigh Acres, east of the city, and take drywall and remodeling work throughout Fort Myers. Give us your address when you call so we can plan the visit.
My Fort Myers house flooded during Hurricane Ian. Can you rebuild the walls?
Drywall removal and rebuilds after flooding are part of our work. Flood-damaged board is cut above the waterline, the cavity needs to be dry before closing, and the finish and texture are matched. Our page on water-damaged drywall repair explains the steps.
I have an older house near downtown with plaster walls. Can you patch it?
Older Fort Myers houses can have plaster over lath, or board that was added over it in earlier remodels. A patch needs to match what is there, so we look at the wall first and tell you what is possible, which may mean a drywall patch with a matched finish, not a true plaster repair.
Which permit office handles my project?
Homes inside the City of Fort Myers go through the city's building department, while addresses just outside the city limits are in unincorporated Lee County. We will help you find out which applies when your project needs a permit.
