Damage restorationin Fort Myers.

Lee County, Southwest Florida

Ian came ashore in Lee County on 28 September 2022 and put catastrophic surge through Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, and the riverfront. Years on, the work in Lee County is a mix of straightforward emergencies and buildings still carrying moisture and mold from a repair that was rushed.

Lee County work is reached across Alligator Alley (I-75) from our Miami base, covering Fort Myers, Cape Coral, the beaches, and Lehigh Acres.

What actually causes damage in Fort Myers.

We provide 24/7 water extraction and structural drying, fire and smoke restoration, storm response, and licensed mold remediation across Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and the surrounding Lee County communities.

01

Surge exposure on the beaches and the Caloosahatchee

Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, and the riverfront neighborhoods sit low against water on two sides. Surge is contaminated and it lingers, so the correct response is extraction, removal of affected porous material, antimicrobial treatment, and verified drying, not a fan and a week of waiting.

02

Cape Coral canals and a very high water table

Cape Coral is built on roughly 400 miles of canals, which means shallow groundwater almost everywhere. Slab moisture, damp garages, and under-slab plumbing failures are ordinary here, and they are easy to mistake for a simple flooring problem.

03

Unfinished and under-dried storm repairs

A lot of Lee County drywall went back up in 2023 faster than it should have. When a wall was closed over damp framing or wet insulation, the mold grows quietly inside the cavity and only shows up as a smell, a stain, or a family that keeps getting sick indoors.

Fort Myers questions, answered.

Still unsure? Call (305) 733-4134. There is no charge for a conversation or for the inspection that follows it.

A persistent musty smell, paint or joint compound that keeps bubbling, baseboards separating, or symptoms that improve when you leave the house. A non-invasive moisture survey and a thermal scan will tell you whether there is water behind the finish before anyone cuts anything.

Cape Coral is covered, along with North Fort Myers, Lehigh Acres, Estero, San Carlos Park, and the beaches. Canal-front and high-water-table properties are a normal part of the work here.

It depends on the policy and the timing. Section 627.70132 of the Florida Statutes gives one year from the date of loss to notice a claim and 18 months for a supplemental claim, across all perils rather than hurricanes alone, so an old event may be out of time even where the damage is real. New damage from a new source is a separate claim, which is exactly why documenting the cause properly matters.

24/7 emergency response. Technician on-site within hours.

Most policies cover sudden water, fire, mold, or storm damage. We bill your insurer directly, so there's no upfront cost on covered claims. If you choose not to file a claim, or the claim is denied, you're responsible for payment.

Shut off water or power if it's safe, avoid standing water, call us immediately. Mold risk starts within 24-48 hours.
