Glass towers and building rules
Most Brickell towers have strict rules for contractors: certificates of insurance, reserved service elevators, loading dock times and work hours. A crew that shows up without those arrangements can lose hours waiting. We handle the building paperwork up front so drying can start as soon as possible. Floor-to-ceiling glass also means wind-driven rain during storms gets in at window and slider frames on higher floors.
Irma on Brickell Avenue
During Irma in 2017, Biscayne Bay surged over the seawall and flooded Brickell Avenue, sending water into lobbies, retail spaces and underground garages. Garages, mechanical rooms and elevator pits are the most vulnerable parts of a tower. Surge cleanup follows flood cleanup standards.
AC and condensate in units
Brickell units typically have air handlers in closets with condensate lines running into the building's drain stack. When they clog, water overflows onto the floor and into the unit below. Regular drain line cleaning and a working float switch prevent most of it. See AC and HVAC condensation leak damage.
