The unique climate here means that severe weather can strike at any time, bringing heavy rains that inundate crawl spaces or seep in under floor coverings.

Trust United Water Restoration Group of Central Florida for reliable storm and flood damage cleanup that prioritizes your needs and gets your property back to its pre-loss condition.

Alachua County sits on covered karst — a limestone shelf under a thin skin of sand and clay, the same geology that opened the Devil’s Millhopper and that drains a large part of the county down through Paynes Prairie rather than out to a river. What that means for a wet building is that stormwater does not run off, it goes down, and a heavy afternoon cell can leave water sitting against a slab in Jonesville or Haile Plantation long after the rain has stopped. Nothing here has a basement either, so a failed supply line spreads flat and fast. Add a rental market where thousands of duplexes and 1970s apartments turn over every August, and a good share of what we dry began as a slow leak nobody was home to notice.

Crews dispatch 24/7 from our Gainesville base at 1126 NW 2nd St, Ste C and cover all of Gainesville — one local team, no subcontracted call centers. See all services in Gainesville or read more about storm & flood damage cleanup.

Common Causes We See in Gainesville

Hurricane and tropical-storm wind lifting shingles, ridge caps and soffit panels
Wind-driven rain forced through window and door assemblies that shed ordinary rain perfectly well
Lightning strikes — Florida leads the country for strike density
Trees and limbs coming down on roofs, screen enclosures and vehicles
Yards and streets that cannot drain fast enough during an afternoon downpour
Power loss taking the air conditioning down for days in August, so the house never dries

Our Process

1

You call, we answer

Any hour, any day, a real person picks up — not a machine and not a national call center. You describe what you are looking at, and from that moment it stops being your problem to solve on your own.
2

We assess

Our crew works out how far it has really gone, including what you cannot see behind walls and under floors. You do not have to know what to look for, or guess how bad it is.
3

We do the work

What comes out, what gets dried, what can be saved — those are our calls to make, and we explain each one as we go. Readings are recorded throughout, so nothing rests on you taking our word for it.
4

You get your property back to normal

Our own team rebuilds what came out and hands the place back finished, with everything documented the way your adjuster expects it.

We Work With Your Insurance

Our crews document everything — photos, moisture readings, and a clear scope of work — in the format adjusters expect, and we communicate with your insurance company throughout the job. Gainesville homeowners always know what is happening and what their policy covers before work begins.
