Water damage restoration in Hudson often follows storm surge. Canal neighborhoods west of US-19, such as Sea Pines and the streets around Hudson Beach, sit only a few feet above the Gulf. Surge from Hurricane Idalia in 2023 and Hurricane Helene in 2024 flooded homes along this stretch of the Pasco County coast.
Surge water is Category 3: salt, silt and sewage. Drywall, insulation, carpet and cabinet bases it touched are removed, and outlets that sat under salt water need an electrician's check. Inland of US-19, the usual calls are burst supply lines, water heaters and AC drain overflows in slab homes.

- •Many canal homes have ground-level garages and enclosures that flood first.
