What storms do to Palm Harbor properties
Palm Harbor sits between the Gulf and Lake Tarpon, so both coastal surge and heavy-rain flooding can affect it, along with hurricane wind on two-story roofs.
Palm Harbor is an unincorporated community in north Pinellas County between Dunedin and Tarpon Springs, with Lake Tarpon to the east and the Gulf communities of Crystal Beach and Ozona to the west. Most of it is single-family neighborhoods and golf communities along US 19 and Alternate 19.
Working with your insurer in Palm Harbor
Wind damage is usually a homeowners claim; rising water usually needs a flood policy. We document each source separately with photos, readings, and a written scope. You keep the claim; we are not a public adjuster.
Before we arrive
- Leave the breaker alone if you would have to stand in water to reach it.
- Run generators outdoors, well away from doors and windows.
- Call your insurance company and write down the claim number.
What we do after a Palm Harbor storm
- Board up broken windows, sliders, and doors with metal panels.
- Pull standing water out of the building.
- Remove soaked drywall, insulation, and flooring that cannot be dried.
- Dry the structure and log readings until they are normal.
- Record each source of water apart, because wind and flood are often different policies.
