Wherever life takes you when you're away from your Gulf Coast property, we're here keeping an eye on things — inspecting, coordinating, preparing, and reporting back so you never have to wonder.
Talk directly to Cort — the owner, the one who shows up.
Most coastal homeowners aren't here year-round — and that's exactly who we're here for. Founded to help Manatee and Sarasota owners who also enjoy a busy life elsewhere. You deserve someone local you can actually trust with your home and its important coastal upkeep.
We show up, we pay attention, and we communicate clearly. From routine inspections to storm prep or cleanups, to coordinating repairs, we handle the details so you don't have to manage everything remotely and hope for the best.
We're also a great fit for newer homeowners, for older residents, or for anyone who just wants a knowledgeable set of eyes — we are here to help you.
Real reviews from real property owners across Manatee & Sarasota Counties.
Placeholder — paste real Google review text here. Cort is the real deal. We've been using Salty C's for two seasons and wouldn't trust anyone else with our property.

Placeholder — paste real Google review text here. Storm prep and post-storm follow-up were excellent. Knew exactly what to check, sent photos the same day. Highly recommend.
Had a good experience with Salty C's? We'd really appreciate a Google review — it helps other homeowners find us and takes about two minutes.
Leave us a Google reviewCort's Manatee County salty roots were planted in 1974.
My family first came to Bradenton in 1974 and no matter where life has taken me since, this beautiful coastline has always been where I've connected most deeply.
For as long as I can remember, I have found real joy in helping the people around me: a project to tackle, a problem to sort out, something to consult on or build or fix. It's where I am happiest spending my time. It's what I am good at.
For years, the people closest to me kept saying the same thing: "Cort, make this your business. It's what you love and what you're great at. What could be a better fit?"
So here I am. Ready to bring my care and attention to your property. Not as a contractor, not as a management company but as someone who actually loves this work and will care for your home and its critical upkeep like you expect it to be.
A look at some of the projects Cort has been part of — from storm recovery to full renovations.
A complete rebuild — exterior, pool, dock, and landscaping. Coordinated and overseen by Cort from the ground up.
Complete interior update on a waterfront condo — coastal style, beautifully executed.
A walkthrough of a completed lakehouse project — the kind of attention to detail and care Cort brings to every property.
We cover the full range of what it takes to keep a coastal property in good shape — especially when you're not here to do it yourself.
Regular walkthroughs with photo reports sent straight to you. We catch small issues before they turn into big ones — and give you peace of mind between visits.
Gulf Coast hurricane season is serious. We get your home ready before a storm hits and assess the situation after — so you know what you're dealing with before you fly down.
Need a plumber, AC tech, or landscaper? We work with a network of reliable local vendors and manage the process on your behalf — no more chasing strangers from out of state.
We act as your eyes, ears, and voice on the ground — meeting vendors, overseeing work, asking the questions you'd ask if you were standing there yourself.
Pipe burst, storm damage, security concern — when something goes wrong and you can't get there fast, we're your first call. Quick response, clear communication, problems handled.
Helping you sort, stage, and sell what you no longer need — or assemble and set up new furniture and fixtures. Practical hands-on help when you need it most.
Our Home Watch inspections go beyond a walkthrough and a few photos. We use AI-assisted tools to generate detailed, structured property reports — flagging issues, tracking changes over time, and delivering clear summaries straight to your inbox. It's one of the things that genuinely sets us apart.
Three things every client should be able to count on.
We show up when we say we will, send reports after every visit, and keep you in the loop without you having to chase us.
We tell you what's actually going on with your property — good news and bad. No sugarcoating, no surprises at the wrong moment.
Cort's family has been part of this community since 1974 — and he's spent a lifetime helping people here. That connection and care runs deep, and it's the kind of thing that can't be bought or franchised.
