What happens between the call and the rebuild

Four stages, in one order, described by the IICRC S500 standard. The contractor does each; how well each is done decides how much work the next one carries.

  1. Step 1: Stop and remove

    The source is shut off, then free water is pumped and extracted. Every hour water stands, it climbs further into drywall and subfloor, so this stage sets the size of everything after it.

  2. Step 2: Open and map

    Baseboard, wet drywall and soaked insulation come out, and meters read the material behind them. The wet edge is marked where the moisture stops, not where the stain does.

  3. Step 3: Dry to a number

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a sealed system, and the same points are read daily. The equipment leaves when the readings reach the dry standard for that material, not on a set day.

  4. Step 4: Close up

    Rebuild starts only after the structure is confirmed dry. Insulation, drywall and finishes go back over an assembly that will not feed anything later.

What a wet building in Deerfield Beach asks of a contractor

When a floor is wet in Deerfield Beach, the call routes to an independent local contractor for water damage restoration, across town and out to its edges. Buildings here are reinspected structurally once they reach forty, and that inspection opens walls nobody had looked behind.

The materials in these houses

Ask when the houses in Deerfield Beach were built and the answer is 1978 at the median, 82.6 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1978 with more than eight in ten buildings older, most of the multi-story stock has now passed the age at which a full structural reinspection is required, so concrete and reinforcement are being exposed on a schedule.

Weather that sets the pace

A normal year here delivers 65.16 inches, 9.66 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 84.2 degrees in August; rain recorded at POMPANO BEACH HIGHLANDS 0.7 E 2.3 miles away and temperatures at POMPANO BEACH AIRPARK 4.4 miles away. June is the wettest month at 9.66 inches of a 65-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the concrete has been wetted continuously for forty years; what the inspection finds is the accumulation of all of it.

How the losses here usually end

  • Damage found by inspection rather than by a leak, so the discovery is scheduled not sudden
  • Reinforcement corroding inside concrete, so repair means opening structure rather than finishes
  • Work across a whole building at once, so residents are displaced in numbers

Frequently asked questions

What does the structural reinspection involve?

An engineer examining the structure itself rather than the finishes, which means opening balconies, columns and slab edges to see the reinforcement inside. It happens on a set schedule once a building reaches a certain age rather than when something goes wrong.

Why does a structural reinspection find so much?

Because nobody had been looking. Concrete in this climate has salt-laden air against it every day for decades, and the reinforcement inside corrodes without any sign on the surface until it spalls. Forty years of that is what gets uncovered at once.

How does a water loss fit into that?

Frequently as part of the same job, which is worth understanding early. Where a unit is being dried and the building is also opening structure nearby, sequencing the two saves a great deal, and doing them independently costs everyone twice.
