Mid-Century Homes Once Sold at Macy's
Lauderhill has an unusual origin story. Developer Herbert Sadkin built much of the city using mass-produced home designs by architect Andrew Geller, originally displayed and sold through Macy's department stores in the late 1950s and 60s. Those modest, well-built Leisurama homes are now well past 60 years old, sitting within the North New River Canal drainage network, with original plumbing and roofing still common across the city. That combination of aging infrastructure and canal-adjacent lots is exactly the kind of water damage restoration Lauderhill homeowners call us about most.

Is my Lauderhill home in a FEMA flood zone or repetitive-loss area?

Did Lauderhill flood during Tropical Storm Eta in 2020?
Yes. A documented incident on NW 21st Street during Eta involved a vehicle driving into a flooded canal because, in the fire chief's own words, "you can't tell the parking lot from the canal," a concrete example of how quickly canal-adjacent areas can flood in the city.

Full-Service Water Damage Coverage in Lauderhill
Every service we offer citywide is available to Lauderhill homes and businesses, dispatched from the same local crew, and here's how each one actually applies to this area.
Mold Remediation
Lauderhill's canal-adjacent lots and South Florida's year-round humidity are a mold-friendly combination on their own, and it only gets worse once you factor in housing that's decades old. We check the usual hiding spots first, behind baseboards, under sinks, inside HVAC returns, since that's where trapped moisture in older construction here tends to sit longest before anyone notices a smell.
Commercial Water Damage
Businesses near Central Broward Regional Park (an international cricket ground) and the rest of Lauderhill get the same after-hours, one-point-of-contact response we give residential calls, with certificate-of-insurance documentation ready for a landlord or property manager on request.
Sewage Cleanup
Lauderhill's older housing stock means original drain lines and sewer laterals are still doing the work decades after installation, exactly the kind of aging infrastructure that backs up during a heavy rain event. We contain and disinfect Category 3 water properly rather than just mopping up what's visible.
Storm Damage Restoration
Lauderhill's canal and waterfront frontage puts it squarely in the path of storm surge and wind-driven rain during hurricane season, on top of whatever a roof already dating back decades has absorbed. We tarp first, then extract and document separately for wind versus flood claims, since insurers treat them differently.
Fire Damage Restoration
Older wiring is a real factor in Lauderhill's decades-old housing stock, and when a fire does start, the water used to put it out, or a triggered sprinkler, usually does as much damage as the flames. We handle both the char and the water in one response.
Flood Damage Restoration
Lauderhill's canal frontage means flood water can rise from the outside even without a roof breach or any wind damage at all. We extract fast and document the source clearly, since canal and storm-surge flooding falls under NFIP or private flood coverage rather than a standard homeowners claim.
