For more than 100 years, family owned and operated Henning has provided luxury remodeling, design-build services and both residential and commercial construction. Launching in early 2026, Henning’s Ground Up Program is designed to help homeowners rebuild quickly and cost-effectively after storm and flood damage.
Many homes impacted by recent hurricanes must now be demolished and rebuilt to meet updated FEMA flood elevation requirements. Henning simplifies this complex process by providing a clear path from demolition to a code-compliant, high-quality new home.
At the heart of the program is a streamlined design approach. Henning partners with local architects like The Sater Home Collective offering hundreds of permit-ready coastal and Florida-style home plans. Rather than starting from scratch, homeowners can choose from proven designs that significantly reduce both time and cost – often ready for permit submission in as little as two weeks, compared to months with traditional custom design.
Program highlights include:
- Designed for flood-damaged homes requiring demolition and rebuilding
- Permit-ready home plans with costs averaging significantly less than market rates
- Design timelines reduced by up to 95%
- Faster permitting compared to traditional architectural design
- Homes built to meet current FEMA flood elevation criteria
- One experienced team guiding the entire rebuild process
