Water damage restoration in Vero Beach covers two areas: the mainland around downtown and US-1, and the barrier island along Ocean Drive across the Indian River Lagoon. Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne crossed this coast three weeks apart in 2004, and roof damage from those storms let rain into a large share of homes.
Older mainland neighborhoods have block homes from the 1950s through the 1970s, many with original galvanized or early copper plumbing. Island homes and condos near the ocean see wind-driven rain and, in strong storms, lagoon and ocean water on low streets. AC drain overflows are a year-round cause.
