The LSH Difference
Because Florida Needs More Than "Up to Code."
Florida Homes Shouldn’t Just Survive — They Should Endure.
Most Florida homes are built to meet the bare minimum code—often rated for wind speeds around 120–140 mph depending on location. That might pass inspection, but it doesn't stand up to what nature throws at us anymore.
At Landmark Superior Homes, we’ve raised the bar. Our homes are rated for 178 mph winds—engineered to withstand Category 5 hurricanes and designed for life on the coast.
This isn’t just construction. It’s protection. It’s peace of mind.
Steel vs. Wood: See the Difference for Yourself
| Feature | Landmark Superior Homes (Steel) | Traditional Wood Construction |
|---|---|---|
| Wind Resistance | 178 mph (Category 5) | 120–140 mph typical (Category 2–3 range) |
| Termite & Mold Proof | Yes – steel doesn’t rot or attract pests | Wood is vulnerable over time |
| Insurance Savings | Lower premiums due to higher resilience | Higher premiums in storm zones |
| Energy Efficiency | R-19 insulated walls | Lower insulation values |
| Build Time | Precision-engineered = faster installs | Slower, labor-intensive framing |
| Maintenance | Minimal – no rot, warping, or sagging | Regular upkeep needed, especially post-storm |
| Sustainability | Recyclable materials, less waste | More environmental impact |
| Resale Value | Future-proof investment | Often depreciates faster in coastal zones |
Rated for 178 mph.
Backed by Common Sense.
When the next storm hits—and it will—ask yourself:
Would you trust your investment to outdated materials and aging wood?
Every LSH home is built with precision light-gauge steel—stronger, straighter, and smarter than traditional framing. That strength doesn’t wear out or break down over time. It’s built in, for good.
