📞 Call Now — (321) 306-4584Melbourne's mix of historic homes in the Eau Gallie Arts District, mid-century neighborhoods along the Indian River, and newer construction west of I-95 means water damage shows up differently depending on where you live. Older homes in the Eau Gallie and downtown Melbourne historic districts often have aging plumbing, original cast-iron pipes, and foundations that have settled over decades — making them particularly vulnerable to pipe failures and slow leaks that go unnoticed until significant damage has occurred. Newer subdivisions in West Melbourne and along the Wickham Road corridor face different challenges: builder-grade plumbing fixtures that fail prematurely, flat lot grading that pools rainwater against foundations, and AC drain lines that clog in Florida's humid climate. DryResponse understands Melbourne's housing stock and tailors our restoration approach to each property's specific construction and age.
As Brevard County's commercial center, Melbourne is also home to thousands of businesses — from the shops along New Haven Avenue to the offices in the Melbourne Corporate Center and the tech companies near Harris Corporation's campus off US-1. Commercial water damage is uniquely urgent: every hour of downtime costs money, and commercial properties have complex HVAC systems, server rooms, and inventory that require specialized drying protocols. DryResponse handles commercial water damage restoration with the same speed and precision as residential — because we know your business can't afford to wait.
Aging plumbing in historic Eau Gallie and downtown Melbourne homes — cast-iron pipes corrode from the inside out and can fail without warning, sending water through walls and under floors.
Hurricane and tropical storm surge — Melbourne's proximity to the Indian River and barrier island means storm surge and wind-driven rain are major threats during hurricane season (June-November).
AC drain line failures — Melbourne's year-round humidity means air conditioning systems run constantly. Clogged condensate drain lines are one of the most common causes of residential water damage in the area.
Flat lot flooding after heavy rains — many Melbourne neighborhoods, particularly south of US-192, sit at low elevation with poor drainage. Summer afternoon thunderstorms can overwhelm drainage systems and push water into homes.
Water heater failures — the average tank water heater lasts 8-12 years. Melbourne's hard water and mineral content accelerate corrosion, and when a tank fails, it dumps 40-80 gallons of water instantly.
Appliance supply line failures — washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerator ice makers use rubber or braided supply lines that deteriorate over time. These are the #1 source of insurance water damage claims nationwide.

Yes. We provide commercial water damage restoration for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and industrial properties throughout Melbourne. We understand the urgency of minimizing business downtime and have equipment scaled for large commercial spaces.
Older homes in Melbourne's historic districts require special care. Different building materials (plaster vs. drywall, hardwood vs. engineered flooring) require different drying techniques and equipment settings. Our team is experienced with all construction types found in Melbourne, from 1950s block homes to new construction.
First, ensure your family is safe. Don't enter standing water if there's any electrical risk. Once conditions are safe, call DryResponse immediately. The faster we begin water extraction after a storm, the less secondary damage (mold, structural compromise) your home will sustain. We pre-position resources during hurricane season to respond as quickly as possible after storms pass.
We work with every major insurance carrier serving Melbourne — State Farm, Allstate, Citizens Property Insurance, Universal, USAA, Heritage, and more. We document all damage thoroughly, communicate directly with your adjuster, and handle billing so your out-of-pocket expense is minimized.
