Why water damage happens in Pembroke Pines

Pembroke Pines is a suburb of Miami in southern Broward County, incorporated on January 16, 1960, in what began as agricultural land with dairy farms. It is surrounded by Southwest Ranches, Davie, Cooper City, Hollywood and Miramar, with the Everglades to the west. Water reaches a house here in three ways. It comes from inside, as a failed water heater, supply line or air-conditioner drain line. It comes from above, as rain driven through a roof, window or sliding door. And it comes from the ground, when heavy rain has nowhere to go. Hurricane Irene in 1999 dropped heavy rain on the city, especially in the western communities such as Chapel Trail and Silver Lakes. Hurricane Katrina crossed the city in 2005 as a Category 1 storm, downing power lines and trees, especially in those same communities.

West Pines, the part of the city west of Interstate 75, is mostly subdivisions built since Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Houses there are commonly concrete block and stucco on a slab with a tile or shingle roof, and losses often start at a roof, a window or sliding-door seal, or a clogged air-conditioner drain line. Outside West Pines, the age of a house's water heater, roof and plumbing varies by street, and aging parts can be the starting point.

Pembroke Pines homes and buildings, and how water gets in

Some Pembroke Pines neighborhoods are managed by associations. Construction is commonly slab-on-grade, with stucco-finished block walls and tile over the slab. When water reaches a tile floor, it spreads sideways, wicks into the bottoms of walls and cabinets, and can enter the next room before any stain appears. The visible wet spot understates the wet area, so the crew maps the full footprint with a thermal camera and moisture meters first.

Where a neighborhood includes condominium or townhome buildings, one unit's leak can reach the unit below or beside it. The crew documents each affected unit we are given access to and records where the water entered.

Trees, limbs and wind-driven rain on Pembroke Pines roofs

Hurricane Katrina downed trees in 2005, and any strong wind can bring limbs down. A fallen tree or heavy limb can break roof tile or shingles and open a path for rain. A ceiling stain can be the first sign, yet by then the water may already have reached the insulation above and the upper part of the wall.

Permanent roof work belongs to a roofer. Inside, the crew extracts what is standing, removes wet insulation and ceiling material, records where the water entered, and dries the framing and walls.

Heavy rain in the western communities

The western communities received heavy rain from Hurricane Irene in 1999. Broward neighborhoods commonly drain into lakes and canals, so in heavy rain yards and streets can be slow to drain. Water that cannot leave a yard can reach a slab-on-grade house at a garage door, a threshold or a low sliding door.

Under the S500 standard, water that comes in from a canal, a lake or the street is IICRC Category 3. It is grossly contaminated, so the porous materials it touched, such as carpet pad and the lower drywall, are removed rather than dried, and the surfaces are cleaned before drying begins.

Water heaters and supply lines in houses of any age

When a water heater fails, it often does so by leaking onto the slab, and the water slips under the flooring of the adjoining rooms. A fitting on the line to a toilet, a sink or a washing machine can give way inside a cabinet or behind an appliance and drip unseen for days. Older parts can fail with little warning.

On arrival the crew removes standing water, traces the damp area across the floor and into the walls, and positions equipment by those readings.

Air-conditioner drain lines and humid indoor air

An air conditioner pulls water out of the air as it cools, and that water leaves through a condensate drain line. When the line clogs or the pan under the air handler rusts, the water can overflow into a ceiling, closet or wall. In a warm, humid climate, damp drywall and baseboards can begin to support mold growth in a matter of days, so extraction and drying are the first work done.

Mold that has already started growing is a separate job: we remediate under the IICRC S520 standard with containment and controlled removal.

What happens after you call from Pembroke Pines

  1. 1

    Call with the address and the entrance details

    Call (786) 213-9489 at any hour and give the street address. If the neighborhood has a gatehouse or a management office, tell us which entrance to use and who can authorize the crew.

  2. 2

    Shut off the water and keep clear of hazards

    Shut the water off at the valve under the fixture or at the main shutoff. After a storm, stay away from downed power lines and standing water near them, and keep out of any room with a sagging or dripping ceiling.

  3. 3

    Note the entry point, extract and map the wet area

    Note where the water entered so the crew can trace it. The crew extracts standing water and maps the wet area with a thermal camera and moisture meters, including the wall bases above the slab.

  4. 4

    Dry to the goal and keep the record

    Equipment goes where the readings show the water traveled. The crew returns each day to take moisture readings and adjust the equipment, and keeps taking readings until the materials reach the dry goal. The photos and daily readings are handed to you as the record.

Parts of Pembroke Pines we serve

West Pines, west of I-75

Mostly subdivisions built since Hurricane Andrew in 1992, commonly slab-on-grade block-and-stucco homes with tile or shingle roofs. Roof and window leaks in wind-driven rain and clogged air-conditioner drain lines can be starting points.

Chapel Trail

One of the western communities that received heavy rain from Hurricane Irene in 1999. Long rain can send water to garage doors and thresholds, and wind can drive it through roofs and windows.

Silver Lakes

Hurricane Katrina downed power lines and trees here in 2005, especially in this community and Chapel Trail. A limb on a roof can open a path for rain to wet the ceiling, insulation and walls below.

Pembroke Pines east of I-75

Outside West Pines, houses can differ in age and type from street to street. Some have older water heaters, supply lines and roofing, and aging parts can be where a loss starts.

Water damage questions in Pembroke Pines

Pembroke Pines callers dial (786) 213-9489 and a person picks up, any hour. A crew can be on-site in as little as 60 minutes in Miami-Dade. Broward and Palm Beach dispatches take somewhat longer. Response times vary based on crew availability and demand.

Keep people out of any room with a dripping or sagging ceiling, and stay away from downed power lines. Note where the rain is coming in and call us. Permanent roof work belongs to a roofer. We extract the water and dry the structure.

No. Street water that comes inside is Category 3 under the IICRC S500 standard. The wet porous materials are taken out and the surfaces cleaned before drying starts, so the work goes beyond drying.

It changes what we expect to find, not how we dry. In West Pines, roof, window and drain-line leaks can start a loss. Outside West Pines the age of a house's water heater, roof and plumbing varies by street, and aging parts can be the cause. In either area the crew measures the wet area first.

Tell us whether there is a gatehouse or a management office, which entrance to use, and who can authorize entry. Associations may limit work hours or where equipment can sit, so pass along any rules you have been given.

Mold growth can begin on wet drywall and baseboards in a matter of days in a humid Florida house, so extraction and drying are the first work done. If growth has already started, we remediate under the IICRC S520 standard with containment and controlled removal.

We serve Pembroke Pines and the rest of Broward County, including its neighbors Davie and Hollywood, along with Weston and Hallandale Beach. Each has its own page on this site, and (786) 213-9489 reaches us from any of them.
