Water damage restoration in Key Biscayne is mostly about condos and low ground. The village sits on a barrier island reached by the Rickenbacker Causeway, with towers along Crandon Boulevard and the ocean side, and single-family homes on the bay side. Most of the island is only a few feet above sea level.
In a condo tower, one failed supply line or AC drain can damage several floors below. Florida Statute 718.111 sets how the association and unit owners share the repair, so the first steps are stopping the water, telling the management office and documenting every wet ceiling. Storm surge and king tides add flood water to ground floors and garages.
