Water Damage Restoration in Fort Myers, FL
24/7 Emergency Response for Lee & Collier County Properties
When water damage strikes, minutes matter. FP Property Restoration - Fort Myers provides water damage restoration in Fort Myers, FL, serving residential and commercial property owners throughout Lee and Collier counties from our original home base here. Our local emergency response teams are available 24/7, 365 days a year, and we maintain a standard 30-minute on-site arrival window for local emergency calls.
Fort Myers sits in one of Florida’s most storm- and flood-exposed regions. Hurricane Ian alone produced storm surge exceeding 12 feet in low-lying coastal areas of Lee County in September 2022, and FEMA has updated Lee County flood maps multiple times, with revisions effective in 1984, 2008, 2018, 2022, and 2026 to reflect persistent flood risk. We built our Fort Myers operation for exactly these conditions, and this location houses one of the area’s largest inventories of water damage drying equipment along with our primary fleet of vehicles.
We’re a full-service water damage restoration company, handling damage assessment, water extraction and structural drying, mold prevention, and complete reconstruction. Free estimates are provided for every water damage restoration need.
Don’t wait on water damage. Call FP Property Restoration - Fort Myers now at (239) 319-4637 for a free on-site inspection and 30-minute emergency response, any time of day or night.
How We Handle Water Damage Restoration in Fort Myers
From the moment we arrive, every project follows a documented process designed to identify hidden moisture. We use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to locate hidden water inside drywall, beneath flooring, behind baseboards, and inside wall cavities. Standing water is extracted regardless of category or source, followed by structural drying, dehumidification, disinfection, and mold prevention measures. Where belongings are affected, our Fort Myers facility includes a 6,500-square-foot contents restoration center where damaged items are cleaned, restored, and securely stored until your property is ready.
As a licensed general contractor in Florida, we handle complete water damage repairs in-house. Comprehensive project documentation is compiled at every job to support your insurance claim.
The Dual Oversight Model Other Companies Don’t Use
Every project we take on, regardless of size, is assigned both a dedicated Project Manager and a Project Auditor. The Project Manager directs the restoration work. The Project Auditor tracks progress daily, checks in on your satisfaction at each stage, and serves as your concierge throughout the project. This dual oversight structure supports quality control throughout the project.
All field and office personnel participate in mandatory daily morning training covering restoration techniques, thermal imaging technology, and customer communication. This isn’t a quarterly refresher. It’s every morning before crews go out.
Credentials & Recognition
Our credentials reflect the full scope of what water damage restoration in Fort Myers can require. We’re an IICRC-certified firm across water, mold, fire, and storm restoration, and we hold NORMI and EPA Lead-Safe certifications alongside Florida state licenses for restoration, mold remediation, and mold testing. We’ve been recognized as an Inc. 5000 company and received the Sedgwick Catastrophe Response Award for our work assisting communities through Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Michael. Our team has over 10 years of experience in Florida property restoration.
Insurance, Warranties & Language Access
We’re a preferred vendor for many Florida insurance carriers, which means we work directly with insurers and adjusters on your behalf rather than leaving you to manage that process alone. Our workmanship is backed by a three-year warranty on interior repairs and a one-year warranty on mold remediation projects. Team members are fluent in English, Spanish, and Lao, allowing us to serve Fort Myers’ diverse community clearly and comfortably.

Water Damage Causes & Mold Risk in Fort Myers
Fort Myers properties face water damage from multiple directions. Storm surge and hurricane flooding are the most severe, but roof and window leaks from tropical weather, pipe breaks and plumbing failures, appliance malfunctions like washing machine overflows and refrigerator line leaks, and sewage or septic backups all send water into structures year-round. The low-lying coastal geography of Lee County makes even moderate rainfall a flooding concern in certain neighborhoods.
Mold is the quiet consequence of any water event that isn’t fully dried. According to the EPA, it can begin developing within 24 to 48 hours of moisture exposure, and it often grows inside wall cavities, under flooring, and behind baseboards. These are places you can’t see. Professional moisture detection using thermal imaging and moisture meters is a reliable way to confirm complete drying and help reduce the risk of a mold remediation project following your restoration job.
Commercial Water Damage Restoration in Lee & Collier Counties
Water damage doesn’t pause for business hours. Our Fort Myers team has restored commercial properties including schools, apartment communities, hotels, restaurants, and high-rise buildings across Lee and Collier counties. We have the infrastructure to scale our response to match the size of the event, from a single business location to a community-wide disaster. When a commercial property floods, rapid extraction and drying can help limit business interruption and secondary damage to inventory and equipment.
