Water losses there often involve tidal canals, salt air and buildings with shared risers. Inland, Coral Springs, Parkland, Coconut Creek and Margate are suburbs built on land that was drained from the Everglades. Their lakes and canals are part of the drainage system and take heavy rain first, and much of their housing is slab-on-grade single-family homes, townhomes and condominiums managed by associations. - [Water damage restoration in Deerfield Beach](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/deerfield-beach) - [Water damage restoration in Lighthouse Point](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/lighthouse-point) - [Water damage restoration in Pompano Beach](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/pompano-beach) - [Water damage restoration in Coconut Creek](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/coconut-creek) - [Water damage restoration in Parkland](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/parkland) - [Water damage restoration in Coral Springs](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/coral-springs) - [Water damage restoration in Margate](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/margate) ## Central Broward: the river neighborhoods and the 1960s communities Fort Lauderdale, Wilton Manors and Oakland Park are laced with rivers and canals, including the Middle River, so seawall height and high water matter here. Tamarac, Lauderhill, Plantation and Sunrise grew up from the 1950s and 1960s onward, with many condominium and villa communities and a large number of buildings whose plumbing is decades old. - [Water damage restoration in Fort Lauderdale](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/fort-lauderdale) - [Water damage restoration in Wilton Manors](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/wilton-manors) - [Water damage restoration in Oakland Park](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/oakland-park) - [Water damage restoration in Tamarac](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/tamarac) - [Water damage restoration in Lauderhill](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/lauderhill) - [Water damage restoration in Plantation](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/plantation) - [Water damage restoration in Sunrise](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/sunrise) ## South and southwest Broward: the coast and the large suburbs Hollywood, Dania Beach and Hallandale Beach are on the coast, where beachfront and Intracoastal condominium buildings shape the losses. Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Weston, Davie and Cooper City are suburban cities and towns of association-managed neighborhoods, lakes and slab homes, with the Everglades close to the western edge. - [Water damage restoration in Hollywood](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/hollywood) - [Water damage restoration in Dania Beach](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/dania-beach) - [Water damage restoration in Hallandale Beach](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/hallandale-beach) - [Water damage restoration in Pembroke Pines](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/pembroke-pines) - [Water damage restoration in Weston](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/weston) - [Water damage restoration in Davie](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/locations/davie) ## How water gets into Broward buildings East of the Intracoastal and along the rivers, the ground is low and tidal canals are close. A heavy king-tide week in the fall or a stalled summer storm can put water in a garage or at a threshold without a pipe breaking anywhere. Floodwater from a lake, canal, river or street is treated as contaminated (IICRC Category 3) under the S500 standard, which means removal of the porous materials it reached, cleaning and antimicrobial treatment as well as drying. Many losses start inside, though: a failed water heater, a split supply line, a clogged air-conditioner drain line, or a roof, window or sliding door that let wind-driven rain in. Broward's heat and humidity then work against drying. Wet drywall and baseboards can start supporting mold growth within a few days, so extraction and drying are the first work done, and where growth is already established we remediate under the IICRC S520 standard. ## Condominiums, houses and commercial buildings Broward is a mix of beachfront and Intracoastal condominium buildings, 1960s and 1970s condominium villages, slab-on-grade single-family homes in association-managed neighborhoods, and commercial centers. In a condominium, water crosses unit lines, so we coordinate access with building management and dry and document each affected unit we are given access to separately. In a single-family home on a slab, a leak spreads sideways under tile or laminate before it shows, so we map the wet area with moisture meters and thermal imaging first. - [Condo water damage in Fort Lauderdale](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/condo-water-damage-fort-lauderdale) ## What happens when you call from anywhere in Broward County 1. **You call.** A person answers (786) 213-9489 at any hour. Give the address, say what is wet and whether the water is still running, and tell us about any gate, association or building access requirements. 2. **A crew is dispatched.** 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. 3. **Standing water comes out and the wet area is mapped.** The crew extracts standing water, then finds the edge of the damage with moisture meters and thermal imaging, so drying equipment goes where the water went and not only where the stain shows. 4. **Drying is measured every day.** Air movers and dehumidifiers run against a recorded dry standard. Moisture readings are taken each day, and the structure is called dry only when the materials reach that standard. 5. **You receive the documentation.** Time-stamped photos, moisture readings and equipment logs for the loss are provided to you. For a condominium, each affected unit we are given access to has its own record. ## Guides for Broward County These pages cover common Broward situations and how to compare companies before you hire one. - [How to choose a restoration company in Fort Lauderdale](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/how-to-choose-water-damage-restoration-company-fort-lauderdale) - [Condo water damage](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/condo-water-damage-fort-lauderdale) - [Hurricane and storm water damage cleanup](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/hurricane-water-damage-cleanup-fort-lauderdale) - [Sewage backup cleanup](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/sewage-backup-cleanup-fort-lauderdale) - [Company facts](https://restorationdoctorfl.com/restoration-doctor-of-south-florida) ## Frequently asked questions ### Does Restoration Doctor of South Florida serve Broward County?

Yes. We coordinate building access with management, dry and document each affected unit we are given access to separately, and keep common areas on their own record.
