SANCAP CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Confetti flies at the SanCap Chamber of Commerce's ribbon-cutting for Landgraphics Sanibel Captiva on Feb. 22 on Sanibel.

After months of running their business out of a camper in the driveway of their home in the Fort Myers Iona area, Randy and Michelle Blackburn celebrated the official reopening of their Landgraphics Sanibel Captiva office on Sanibel with a SanCap Chamber of Commerce ribbon-cutting on Feb. 22.

“Both our office on Sanibel and our personal home were completely flooded out from the storm. We lived in and operated out of that camper to ensure we could continue to meet the needs of our valued clients during a very difficult time,” Randy Blackburn said.

“We remain committed to helping all of our clients restore their property to its original beauty,” he added.

Landgraphics was one of the first companies on the islands to offer post-storm cleanup services by accessing a barge to transport equipment in the first week after Ian. It immediately began habitat restoration with emergency cleanup and debris removal, tree removal, assessment and planning for new and restorative landscaping projects, water management and erosion control, restoration of viable green spaces and, in collaboration with local agencies, prioritizing areas of high need and attention.

“Known for its high-quality and elegant landscape design, lawn maintenance and tree services for 27 years on the islands, Landgraphics steadily has been helping to bring the natural beauty of the islands back since Hurricane Ian,” chamber President and Chief Executive Officer John Lai said. “We value their contribution to the islands’ comeback and heartily welcome them to chamber membership.”

Landgraphics Sanibel Captiva is at 2418 Palm Ridge Road, Sanibel.
