Bartow's Central Florida Hurricane and Wind Exposure
Bartow, the seat of Polk County, sits in Florida's phosphate mining heartland between Tampa Bay and Lake Okeechobee. Its inland location modestly reduces direct hurricane storm surge risk, but wind damage from landfalling Gulf and Atlantic storms remains a serious threat — Polk County is well within the zone of damaging winds from major hurricanes tracking across the Florida peninsula. Afternoon convective thunderstorms with 70+ mph gusts are a summer weekly occurrence.
License note: Florida requires a State Certified or State Registered Roofing Contractor license (CCC) from the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR).
