Floods are becoming increasingly common in South Florida, as the intensity of storms and rising tides impact residential and commercial properties.
According to the Division of Emergency Management, flooding is one of the most frequent disasters in Florida.
Not all flooding is the same, and the underlying damages vary depending on the flood and how it affects your home. These factors are critical in deciding the best approach to address various issues when dealing with the after-effects. We look at the different floods and how each one impacts flood damage restoration in Jupiter.
Coastal Floods
Coastal floods are when an accumulation of water hits the coast from tides, waves, rainfall, or surges. The proximity to the ocean makes them vulnerable because of climate change.
The rising sea level makes inland areas vulnerable to coastal floods, and more people live near the beach. Since 1950, sea levels in Florida rose 8 inches and are increasing by 1 inch every 3 years. These floods are deadly for any property owner, with the water and debris causing significant damage.
To address these issues, you will need to remove all furniture and any materials inside. The flood damage restoration in Jupiter requires doing significant amounts of disinfecting. Coastal floods bring a combination of dangerous elements, including raw sewage, sea, river, and groundwater.
The cleanup and restoration are extensive and require treating everything that was exposed to the flood.
Clean Air Xperts specializes in flood damage and the removal of dangerous bacteria and debris. We can make your property livable so that you can move on with your life after significant flood damage.
River and Flash Floods
In Florida, storms can come out of nowhere and drench an area with tremendous amounts of rain. The sudden water surge causes the banks on streams, creeks, and rivers to no longer hold the tide. These events cause flooding for those living in low-lying areas near the river. Flash flooding is equally dangerous, where low areas can be inundated with water.
The damage to your property is extensive after these events, and you will need to remove all furniture, personal belongings, and anything damaged. We will go in and extensively disinfect the entire property to kill all mold and bacteria. The process takes time, but we can help you to get your property back to normal.

Sewage Floods
Sewage floods can be from rainfall, broken sewage pipes, or the septic tank/sewage system. Raw sewage comes leaking into your property from sinks, showers, and toilets with a foul smell.
These floods are dangerous from the bacteria and chemicals that cause diarrhea, infections, vomiting, and fevers. When a situation like this arises, you want to act quickly by calling a professional to address these issues.
The first thing you want to do after these events is remove anything exposed to raw sewage. The longer you leave these items in the home, the more dangerous it will be for you and your family.

Flooding from Bursting Pipes
Floods from bursting pipes are the least dangerous to you, your family, and the property. The water is from clean sources that are for drinking, cooking, and bathing. You don’t have lots of toxins or bacteria in the water from these floods. We can help you to address these issues, as we have dealt with similar situations many times.
The first thing you want to do is remove the items damaged by the water and place everything in the sun to dry. The faster you act, the higher the odds of keeping these items in your home and not having to worry about any adverse health effects.
