Weathering Hurricane Charley

For a stronger, more weatherproof home, choose Palm Harbor.

"Charley was the Second-Worst Hurricane in U.S. History."
-Insurance Information Institute

A major natural disaster is the supreme test of a manufactured home’s quality, and many of the homes destroyed by Hurricane Andrew were built before HUD regulations toughened the requirements for such construction. But no government agency – or other manufacturer, for that matter – has ever adopted standards as high as Palm Harbor’s.

Our engineering, materials and workmanship are the best in the business. When you know how our homes are built, you’ll understand why they stood up so well to the storm ... and why they stand apart from all other manufactured homes.
