Hurricane Irma (CDBG-DR) – Rebuild Florida Program

Hurricane Irma struck Florida in September 2017, unleashing winds over 130 mph and driving massive storm surge that devastated homes, infrastructure, and entire communities across the state. The storm forced millions to evacuate and caused billions of dollars in property damage, leaving countless Florida families without safe, stable housing.

Timberline led a key part of Florida’s long-term recovery through the Rebuild Florida Hurricane Irma CDBG-DR Program. Our team replaced 365 storm-damaged mobile homes with new, code-compliant manufactured housing units across more than 40 counties. We built each home to meet modern wind and flood standards, strengthening safety and durability. By delivering these resilient homes, Timberline restored housing stability for hundreds of families and supported Florida’s broader recovery and disaster preparedness efforts.

After Hurricane Ian, Timberline partnered with Lee County and local engineers to fast-track design, permitting, and mobilization for the Osprey Bay Community.

We’ve completed 68 elevated manufactured homes—each raised 4.5 to 5 feet to meet flood zone standards. Work includes home installations, interior finishes, carports, storage sheds, garages, driveways, and full utility hookups.

Timberline continues to build resilient housing for the community.

Hurricane Matthew (DR-4399) – FEMA Housing Mission

After Hurricane Michael struck Florida as a Category 5 storm, Timberline partnered with CH2M as its sole subcontractor to support FEMA’s temporary housing mission. The team assessed sites for FEMA compliance, installed 1,079 units—including 223 manufactured homes and 856 travel trailers—provided ongoing maintenance, and later deactivated and removed units. Timberline also built eight Emergency Group Sites with more than 350 utility-ready pads to support centralized housing in the hardest-hit areas.

Timberline has led and executed response efforts for some of the most notable disasters in recent years including hurricanes:
Michael, Florence, Harvey, Maria, Irma, Ike,
Katrina, Irene, and superstorm Sandy.
