Florida Water Damage Risk Profile
Primary threats: Hurricane storm surge, heavy rainfall flooding, high water table, sandy soil plumbing stress.
Florida's hurricane season brings two distinct water damage risks - storm surge along the coast, which can push several feet of seawater into homes with little warning, and torrential inland rainfall, which has caused some of the worst flooding in state history even far from the coastline. Florida's flat terrain and high water table make drainage slow even outside of storms, and the state's sandy soil can shift during heavy rain, stressing underground pipes and sewer connections in ways that sometimes surface as leaks weeks later.
