Fides Restoration

June 1. Hurricane season is officially open.

In South Florida, that's not a headline — it's a reminder. The Atlantic basin averages 14 named storms per season, and the window from June through October is when properties in Palm Beach County are most vulnerable.

But here's what most homeowners don't prepare for: it's not the wind. It's what happens after.

Hurricane-driven water intrusion — through rooflines, windows, compromised siding, or storm surge — creates conditions for mold growth within 24 to 48 hours. In our heat and humidity, that window is even shorter.

The jobs that hit hardest are the ones where water sat for days before anyone called. By then, subfloors are buckled, drywall is unsalvageable, and mold has already taken hold behind walls.

What you can do now, before a storm hits:
• Know where your main water shutoff is
• Walk your roofline and check flashing around vents and chimneys
• Confirm your homeowner's policy covers wind-driven rain
• Have a restoration company's number saved — not something you want to find mid-storm

This Memorial Day, we're grateful.

Fides Restoration was built on the values I learned at West Point and carried through my time in the Army: do what you say you're going to do, treat people with respect, and don't cut corners when the stakes are someone's home.

The word 'Fides' is Latin for trust. That's not a marketing choice -- it's a standard. Every inspection, every job, every conversation with a homeowner who is dealing with one of the most stressful things that can happen to their family.

To those who served: thank you. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

To our customers and neighbors in Jupiter and Palm Beach County: thank you for trusting us with your homes. We don't take that lightly.

Your HVAC system may be spreading mold through your home right now -- and you wouldn't know it.

Here's how it happens: a small moisture issue forms near the air handler or in the ductwork. Mold spores establish in that environment. Then every time your system runs, it distributes those spores to every room in the house.

This is one of the most common ways we find mold in Florida homes -- not from a visible leak, but from an HVAC system that's been quietly cycling contaminated air.

Signs your HVAC may be involved:
• Musty smell that appears specifically when the AC turns on
• Allergy symptoms that are worse at home than elsewhere
• Visible dark spots near air vents or registers
• A system that runs frequently due to high Florida humidity

We inspect the full system -- air handler, ductwork, and surrounding structure. AMRT-certified. Free assessment.

Water damage restoration isn't just about getting water out. That's the easy part.

The harder part -- and the part that determines whether you'll have mold in 30 days -- is what happens after extraction.

At Fides Restoration, our water damage process:

🔍 Step 1: Moisture mapping. We use thermal cameras and moisture meters to find water in every surface it touched -- visible and hidden.

💧 Step 2: Industrial extraction. Truck-mounted and portable extraction units remove standing and trapped water fast.

💨 Step 3: Structural drying. Commercial-grade air movers and dehumidifiers run until every material reaches dry standard -- measured daily, not assumed.

📋 Step 4: Documentation. Moisture readings, drying logs, and before/after photos submitted directly to your insurance adjuster.

WRT and ASD certified. Insurance handled. Owner on-site.
