Floodwater reached West Melbourne homes on November 2. Florida Today reported airboats pulling at least seven residents from Wingate subdivision homes. We take those calls 24/7: extraction, drying, then new drywall, floors and paint. We work out of Kendall.

Common questions
Floodwater got into my West Melbourne home. What do I do first?
Safety first. Do not walk through standing water if the power is on. Water and electricity do not mix. If you can reach the main breaker safely and dry, turn it off. If you cannot, stay out and call your power company or an electrician. Floodwater can carry dirt and bacteria, so wear boots and gloves and keep kids and pets out. Photograph everything before you move it. Then get things off the wet floor, and ventilate the house if it is safe. After flooding like West Melbourne saw on November 2, the next priority is getting water out of the house fast, because the EPA says wet materials should be dried within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Call us 24/7. We extract the water, dry the structure and rebuild what it damaged.
How do I document the water damage for my adjuster?
Start before you clean. Take wide photos of each room, then close-ups of the waterline on the walls, the wet floor, damaged furniture and anything that came apart. Take a video walking through the house and say the date out loud. Photograph the street or yard water if you can do it safely. Write a list of damaged belongings with what you remember about their age and cost. Keep every receipt for emergency work, hotel stays and drying. Do not throw away wet materials until your adjuster has seen them or you have photos of them. We help with the building side: we take moisture readings in floors and walls, photograph what we find and write a scope of the repair that you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file or negotiate claims.
