Living on the isles
The Las Olas Isles were created by dredging canals and building up narrow strips of land between them. Nearly every home has water on at least one side. Surge, king tides and heavy rain can push water up the canals, over seawalls and across yards. Older homes built lower than current standards are the most exposed. See flood cleanup.
King tides and seawalls
During fall king tides, water can reach the tops of lower seawalls and come up through storm drains onto the isles' streets, even on sunny days. The city's newer seawall height rules mean many owners are raising walls. If water reaches your home during a king tide, your seawall and drainage should be checked.
Shops and restaurants on the boulevard
Las Olas Boulevard's restaurants and shops need quick recovery when a roof leaks, a pipe bursts or a kitchen line backs up. We work after hours, set up containment and document timelines for business interruption claims. See commercial water damage restoration.
