Kitchen with plastic containment and drying equipment after a leak.

Water damage restoration in Lake Nona

Lake Nona is one of the newest parts of Orlando, but new homes still leak. Common sources are supply lines, A/C condensate lines, washing machine hoses, and storm-driven rain at windows and doors. Rose Restoration Specialist removes the water, finds where it went, dries the structure, and documents the work.

Drying a kitchen after a leak.

First steps

  • Shut off the water at the main if it's safe.
  • If your home is under builder warranty, take photos and also notify the builder. Don't let a warranty claim hold up drying.
  • Keep clear of wet areas near electrical outlets.
  • If you rent, notify your property manager.

Why newer Lake Nona homes still need careful drying

Most homes in Lake Nona were built after 2010, and whole neighborhoods like Laureate Park went up quickly. Newer homes are built to tighter energy codes. That saves on cooling, but it also means moisture from a leak has fewer ways to escape on its own. Water under luxury vinyl plank or tile can sit on the slab without showing at the surface. Two-story homes can have a leak from an upstairs bathroom or air handler soak the ceiling below.

We check with moisture readings instead of guessing. Then we dry what can be dried and explain anything that needs to come out.

Lake Nona water damage questions

My home is only a few years old. Isn't this the builder's problem?

It may be a warranty issue, but water still needs to be dried right away. Photos and moisture records help with any conversation you have with the builder later.

Water is coming through the ceiling from upstairs. What do I do?

Turn off the water to the upstairs fixture, or the main, if it's safe. Stay out from under a sagging ceiling, and call.

Do you cover the rest of southeast Orlando?

Yes. We serve Orlando and surrounding areas. See our service areas.

Can water under vinyl plank flooring dry in place?

Sometimes. It depends on the product and on how wet the slab and subfloor are. We measure before we recommend anything.
