99% of the 30,291 places we track come out drier. A normal year here brings enough water to find any weak spot in a roof or along a foundation wall.

Check your drains and the slope around the house ahead of June. It takes an afternoon, and it can save a lot of drying later.

Before anyone arrives
What to do first if you're in Juno Beach
No need to get it perfect. These are the things that make the biggest difference, in order.
Shut off the water
Look for the main valve near the meter or where the line comes into the house, and turn it slowly, since older valves can stick. If it's one fixture, its own shutoff valve will do.
Stay clear of the power
If you can reach the breaker panel without stepping in water, switch off the wet rooms. If you can't, leave it alone, stay out of the water and tell us when you call.
Take pictures first
Before you clean up, photograph the water, where it came from and whatever it damaged. Your insurance company will ask, and you only get one chance at those shots.
Rescue what you can
Move rugs, papers, photos and electronics to a dry room, and prop furniture up off the wet floor. Everything else can wait.
Let the air move
If the water is clean and the power's safe, open interior doors and run the fans you have. Stay out if it's sewage or floodwater, and keep that air away from the rest of the house.

The clock on mold is roughly 24 to 48 hours, which is why we'd rather hear from you early.
Typical build year
What tends to fail in Juno Beach houses like yours
If your house dates from the late 1970s to the mid 1990s, take a look at the pipes. Polybutylene went into a lot of homes in those years. It's gray plastic, and it has a habit of failing with no warning. You can often spot it at the water heater or under a sink.
Then there's the water heater itself. Most tanks last 8 to 12 years, so a house this age is probably on its second or third, and yours may be getting close. If you see polybutylene, it's worth asking a plumber about it, even if nothing's leaking yet.

What our network handles around Juno Beach
Water Damage Cleanup & Extraction
The more water that comes out at this stage, the less has to be dried later. Pumps and extraction units clear carpet, pad, hardwood and tile, then everything the water touched gets cleaned.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Flood Damage Restoration
Floodwater is never clean. It carries soil and sewage, so mud and silt get cleared, soaked drywall and insulation get cut out, and what stays gets disinfected.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Basement Water Damage Restoration
If your home has a basement, a failed sump pump or a backed-up drain can fill it fast. It gets pumped out, the concrete and block get dried, and someone finds out how the water got in.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Structural Drying and Dehumidification
Air movers and dehumidifiers run until the meters say your walls, subfloor and framing are back to normal. Not until they look dry. Until the readings prove it.

Why water behaves differently in Juno Beach
Weather
Humidity and heavy rain set the pattern here. A summer thunderstorm can drop inches of water in an afternoon, and tropical systems near the coast drive rain under shingles and through window frames. In the hills, stalled storms send flash floods down narrow valleys. And air this damp keeps a wet room wet long after the rain's gone.
Buildings
Many homes here sit over vented crawlspaces, where damp air and leaking lines can keep floor joists wet out of sight. Newer houses are often on slabs, and older city neighborhoods have brick rowhouses with plaster walls. Air conditioning adds its own risk, since a clogged condensate line can run water into a ceiling or wall for days.
Ground
Soil here runs from coastal sand to red clay and limestone hills. Sand drains fast, but it sits over a high water table, so groundwater can come up into crawlspaces in a long wet spell. Inland, red clay sheds rain toward your foundation and holds it there.
Drying
Outdoor air is often wetter than the air in your house, so fresh air won't help. The drying has to be closed up and controlled, with LGR dehumidifiers doing most of the work and air movers aimed at whatever's still wet.
When you call
How a Juno Beach water job goes after you call
The call itself is short. Tell us your address in Juno Beach, what got wet and if it's still coming in. We'll connect you with a restoration specialist from our network who covers Palm Beach County, and they'll tell you what they can do and when. It doesn't matter if it's a house, a rental or a business.
The first hour is mostly detective work. Using thermal imaging and moisture meters, the specialist traces the water through walls and floors. Then they'll sort it into Category 1, 2 or 3, from clean supply line water to sewage or floodwater. If it's Category 3, they'll seal the area with plastic sheeting and set up negative air with HEPA filtration, so the contaminated air stays put.
Most of the job is drying, and it's slower than people expect. Extraction units, often truck-mounted, take out the bulk water. Air movers and low grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers then do the long, loud work of pulling moisture out of walls and floors. Desiccant units come in when it's too cold or the materials are too dense for LGR machines. Psychrometric readings, which are daily checks of temperature and humidity, tell the specialist if the setup needs changing.
Looking dry and being dry are two different things. The specialist takes moisture readings from unaffected parts of your home to set a dry standard, and the machines keep going until everything wet matches it. That's how the IICRC S500 guidance says to do it, and the daily log gives your insurer the proof it asks for.
Can it be saved? A guide for Juno Beach homes
A lot of it can stay if you move quickly. If the water was clean, the carpet is often fine once the pad is replaced. Hardwood needs slow, careful drying with mats, and it may want refinishing at the end. Drywall is the easy one: a flood cut takes off the wet part, a little above the waterline, and the top of the wall is untouched.
Things change when the water's dirty. Anything soft that sewage or floodwater reached, such as carpet, pad and insulation, gets thrown out. Hard surfaces get cleaned and treated. Have a professional look at any gas appliance that got wet before you turn it back on, and don't walk on a floor that's gone spongy.

Common water damage questions in Juno Beach
How fast can someone get to me in Juno Beach?
In most cases you'll have someone on the way that day. You can ask for a time when you're connected with the specialist. It may take longer after a storm, when much of Juno Beach needs help at once.
Can I clean up water damage myself?
A small spill of clean water on a hard floor? Sure. Towels and a fan will do it. But if the water's in the walls, the carpet pad or the subfloor, or it came from a sewer or a flood, you'll want it extracted and properly dried. What you can't see is what keeps causing damage.
How long does it take to dry out a house?
Most homes take three to five days of drying once the water's out. Dense materials such as hardwood and plaster can take longer, and any rebuilding comes afterward.
Can wet hardwood floors and carpet be saved?
Hardwood is more forgiving than people think. Floor drying mats pull moisture up through the boards, and refinishing can take care of what's left. Carpet can usually stay if the water was clean, as long as the pad's replaced. If the water was dirty, it can't.
Will my insurance pay for water damage?
It usually depends on where the water came from. A homeowners policy usually covers a burst pipe. Outside flooding needs separate flood insurance, and sewer backup often needs an add-on. It's worth reading your policy, and it's worth having those photos.
