Why water damage happens in Sunrise

Sunrise began with a land purchase: in 1960, developer Norman Johnson bought 2,650 acres in central-western Broward. The name Sunrise was chosen over Sunset Village because residents felt 'sunset' was too final, and an 'upside-down house' built to attract buyers became a national attraction. The city now adjoins Weston, Davie, Tamarac, Lauderhill and Plantation, and it sits on the edge of the Miami urban development boundary, with the Everglades to the west. For water damage restoration in Sunrise, that means the Everglades on one side and, inside the boundary, residential neighborhoods beside a commercial base. Heavy rain can leave water standing in low spots while canals and lakes catch up. Losses often begin inside a building, though, where a water heater gives out, a supply line splits or a condensate line clogs.

Because the city began with that land purchase in 1960, houses of different ages can stand on the same street. In a house, a loss often starts at a water heater, a supply line, an air-conditioner drain pan or an aging roof or window seal. Where a building holds retail space, offices and tenant suites, the same kinds of fixtures and lines serve many spaces. A failure that starts at night or over a weekend can run until the doors open again.

Sunrise homes and buildings, and how water gets in

Where a Sunrise house is concrete block with a stucco finish on a slab, water can slip under the flooring and wick up the lower walls, so the visible damp patch can understate the wet area. Some houses may stand in association-managed communities, where a gate code or a management contact helps when you call.

Retail space, offices and tenant suites can share walls and ceilings, so a leak can reach neighboring suites. The first questions are about access: who holds the keys, who the building contact is and when the space can be entered. A store or an office gets the same crews, and the same daily record, as a house.

Retail, offices and tenants: leaks found when the doors open

Sunrise has a commercial base as well as residential neighborhoods. Stores, offices and tenant suites can be empty overnight and on weekends, so a failed supply line, a leaking water heater or an overflowing condensate line can run until someone opens the door.

When a loss is found, access and tenant contacts come first. Give us the property manager's number and the way in after hours, and tell us which neighboring suites share the affected wall, ceiling or floor. We extract, map each affected space we are given access to and dry it under the S500 standard.

The Everglades edge: heavy rain and standing water

With the Everglades to the west and the urban development boundary at the city's edge, Sunrise sheds heavy rain through canals and lakes that can fill during long storms. Yards, parking lots and streets that cannot drain hold water at the low points, and a door threshold, garage door or storefront entrance at that level can let it in.

Floodwater or street water that comes inside is classed as contaminated, Category 3 under the IICRC S500 standard. For a house or a retail space the work is the same: extraction, removal of the wet carpet, pad, baseboard and insulation the water reached, cleaning, and drying against a recorded standard.

What happens after you call from Sunrise

  1. 1

    Call and name who controls access

    Call (786) 213-9489 at any hour. For a house, give the address and any gate code. For a store, office or tenant suite, give the property manager's name and number and say how the crew gets in after hours.

  2. 2

    Stop the source and clear the area

    Close the nearest shutoff valve or the building's main. Move people, stock, files and small furniture away from wet floors, and avoid any room where water has reached outlets or the ceiling is sagging.

  3. 3

    Extract and map the spaces we can reach

    The crew extracts standing water, then maps the wet area with moisture meters and thermal imaging, recording each room or tenant space we can reach separately, including shared walls, ceilings and floors.

  4. 4

    Dry, log daily and hand over the record

    Dehumidifiers and air movers run across the mapped area while the crew records moisture readings every day. Readings continue until the materials reach the dry goal, and a dated set of photos and readings goes to you for each space we could enter.

Water damage questions in Sunrise

(786) 213-9489 is answered by a person around the clock for Sunrise addresses. 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.

Yes. The same crews and daily documentation apply to a store or an office as to a house. When you call, give us the property manager's number and the after-hours entry details. Tell us which neighboring suites share the wet wall, ceiling or floor, so the spaces we are allowed into are mapped separately.

It can. Sunrise sits on the edge of the Miami urban development boundary, with the Everglades to the west, so heavy rain can leave water standing in low spots while canals and lakes catch up. Water from a lake, canal or street that comes inside is IICRC Category 3 under the S500 standard, so soaked porous materials come out and the area is cleaned before drying starts.

Sunrise began in 1960, when developer Norman Johnson bought 2,650 acres, so some of its buildings are decades old. Water heaters, supply lines and drain lines wear out with age in any building, and a failure can wet the floor, the wall bases and the ceiling below. We map the wet area with moisture meters and thermal imaging and dry along it.

We serve Sunrise and the rest of Broward County, including Plantation, Weston, Tamarac, Lauderhill and Davie, the cities and towns that adjoin it. The same number, (786) 213-9489, reaches us from any of them.
