We handle water, fire, mold, and storm damage for homeowners and businesses from the historic Duckpond and Downtown to Haile Plantation, Town of Tioga, and the neighborhoods around the University of Florida, and we bill your insurance directly.

LOCAL RISK PROFILE

What threatens Gainesville homes & businesses — by season.

North Central Florida weather and the area's creeks and karst geology create a few recurring loss patterns in Gainesville that we're built to handle.

JUN – NOV

Hurricane & tropical storm season

Tropical systems and intense afternoon thunderstorms are the county's primary flood triggers, and Gainesville's Hogtown Creek, Sweetwater Branch, and Possum Creek systems and the Paynes Prairie basin can back up fast after a big storm.

YEAR-ROUND

Karst terrain & sinkhole subsidence

Alachua County sits on limestone prone to sinkholes — heavy rain after a dry spell can cause soil subsidence that cracks slabs and pipes, leading to hidden water intrusion.

YEAR-ROUND

Hidden mold in historic & student housing

Florida humidity plus Gainesville's mix of century-old homes near the Duckpond/Downtown and dense rental housing near UF means slow leaks can turn into mold colonies long before a stain ever shows.
