Storm Damage Restoration in Naples and Fort Myers, Florida
Storm damage here comes from hurricanes and tropical storms: wind that opens roofs and breaks windows, storm surge that pushes seawater into homes along the coast, rivers, and canals, tropical rain that floods creeks and streets, and tornadoes spun up in the outer bands. 911 Restoration of Naples/Fort Myers responds around the clock in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, Bonita Springs, North Naples, Naples, East Naples, Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, North Port, Venice, Sarasota, and Bee Ridge / Fruitville, working from Lehigh Acres across Lee, Collier, Charlotte, and Sarasota counties. Storm calls usually combine an opening in the roof or walls with water already inside, so tarping, board-up, extraction, and drying often happen on the same visit.

The Storms That Damage Naples and Fort Myers Properties
Hurricane Ian's surge and wind
Ian's eye made landfall near Punta Gorda on September 28, 2022, with winds estimated at about 145 mph. Surge flooded communities along the mouth of the Caloosahatchee River in Cape Coral, came up the river into Fort Myers, ran up the river through Bonita Springs, and reached Naples. Surge-flooded slab homes need wet drywall, insulation, and flooring out quickly, then drying and disinfection.
Hurricane Milton's wind and tornadoes
In Hurricane Milton, Venice recorded the highest land wind in the National Weather Service report for the region, and numerous tornadoes formed before landfall. Wind lifts shingles and tiles and drives rain through soffits and roof penetrations, soaking attic insulation and ceilings before a leak shows.
Tropical rain and flooding inland
Tropical Storm Debby set an all-time August daily rainfall record in Sarasota and flooded the Phillippi Creek area. Slow storms flood streets, yards, and low homes far from the beach, and river flooding can rise along the Myakka River near North Port. Rain that comes in from rising water and rain that comes through a damaged roof are handled and insured differently.

Signs You Need Storm Damage Restoration, and What To Do First
- Missing or lifted shingles, or granules in the gutters after hail
- Water stains on ceilings after wind-driven rain
- Broken windows or doors
- Fallen trees or limbs on the roof
- Water inside after a flash flood or tropical storm
- Damp insulation in the attic
Stay away from downed power lines and do not enter a flooded room until the power is off. If it is safe, cover openings and move valuables away from leaks, take photos of the damage, and call (239) 317-6917.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on how the storm got in: through the roof, through broken openings, or through flooding at ground level. Wind and hail damage often lets water into attics and wall cavities, where it spreads before it shows on a ceiling.
Tarping and board-up usually happen on the first visit. Drying takes 3 to 5 days in most homes, and repairs follow once the structure is dry and the scope is approved.
What We Restore After a Storm
- Roofs, after tarping and repair
- Attics and insulation
- Ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain
- Windows, doors, and siding
- Ground-floor rooms after flash floods
- Flooring and subfloors
- Fences and exterior structures
- Contents and electronics
Insurance and Documentation for Storm Damage Restoration
We provide Direct Insurance Coordination on storm claims, with photos, readings, and a written scope for your adjuster. Wind and hail damage are usually handled under your homeowner policy, while rising floodwater usually needs a separate flood policy, and some coastal policies carry a separate windstorm or hurricane deductible. We document how the water got in so your adjuster can apply the right coverage.
