Before the crew arrives in Hobe Sound

In Hobe Sound, the first steps depend on the home. Census figures show 28% of homes are mobile or manufactured, against 9% for Martin County. In one of those, the water shutoff is often under the home or at the meter, and the power cutoff is at the outside panel. In a site-built house, close the main valve near the hose bib. Then cut power to wet rooms. Photograph the water and the damage, inside and under the home. Move belongings to dry ground. After a storm, wind-driven rain may have soaked ceilings, so ask about ceiling repair after a leak. FEMA's National Risk Index rates yearly hurricane loss here at 255, against 107 for Florida. Water removal starts once the source is stopped, and the line is open 24/7.

Do you take water damage calls in Hobe Sound?

Yes, Hobe Sound is covered, along with the rest of Martin County. Call (833) 728-2327 any hour, say what is wet and where the water came from, and agree the visit time on the call. Nothing starts until you approve a written estimate.

How soon can a crew get to Hobe Sound?

The phone is answered at any hour; the crew's arrival time for Hobe Sound is set on that call. Until they arrive, keep the water off, the power to wet rooms off and the photos coming.

Are older homes in Hobe Sound more likely to have water damage?

Older plumbing, original water heaters and old drain lines are common sources of leaks wherever they are found. A leak in an older house is also more likely to reach plaster or plank subfloor, which dries more slowly, so the drying log matters more there.

Do they really have to cut out wet drywall?

Not always. Drywall soaked by clean water and dried quickly can often stay, sometimes with small holes drilled near the floor so air reaches the cavity. Drywall that is crumbling, sagging, or touched by sewage or outside floodwater is cut out, usually in a straight line above the water mark called a flood cut. Ask the crew to show you the moisture readings behind each decision.
