WJHG reported that Bear Creek and Choctawhatchee Bay covered Bay Loop Drive after Sally, with one resident reporting two to six inches of water inside the house. The National Hurricane Center also reports that Alaqua Creek rose above record flood stage and flooded homes along SR-20 west of Freeport with up to 4 feet of water.
Even a few inches of creek or bay water soaks into drywall, insulation and flooring, and it is treated as contaminated. We extract the water, remove porous materials that cannot be cleaned, then clean, disinfect and dry with moisture meters and thermal imaging. Quick drying matters in Florida humidity because mold can start growing on wet materials.
How We Handle Losses in Freeport
Freeport's risk comes from Choctawhatchee Bay, Bear Creek, Black Creek and Alaqua Creek, plus hurricane wind and rain. Creek and bay flooding, roof openings that let rain into attics and walls, sewage backups and mold after flooding are the losses we prepare for around Bay Loop Drive, Highway 331 and SR-20.
Mold usually follows water in Freeport homes. A slow leak inside a wall, an air conditioning drain line that backs up, or a room that stays damp through a humid season can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove the water used to put the fire out, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Freeport usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
