Wind and water in South Highpoint
South Highpoint is inland from the Gulf, so wind and heavy rain are the main storm threats: lifted shingles, broken windows, and water through soffits and sliders. We tarp, board up, extract, and dry.
South Highpoint is an unincorporated area in mid-Pinellas near the Ulmerton Road corridor. The U.S. Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimates about 5,325 residents in South Highpoint. The median year of construction is about 1975, so a large share of the housing stock predates modern Florida Building Code wind and water standards. Older housing in South Highpoint often has aging supply lines, water heaters, and roofs that have been through several storms.
Insurance and your claim
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.
Securing and drying out
- Tarp damaged roof sections to stop more water getting in.
- Extract storm and flood water from floors and carpet.
- Remove soaked drywall, insulation, and flooring that cannot be dried.
- Set air movers and dehumidifiers and track moisture readings until dry.
- Document wind damage and flood damage separately for your insurers.
Know your South Highpoint property
South Highpoint is about 11 miles north of St. Petersburg. About 53% of occupied homes are rented, so landlords, tenants, and managers often share the call and the paperwork. About 29% of housing units in South Highpoint are mobile or manufactured homes, where manufactured homes are among the most wind-exposed structures in a storm. Median year built: 1975. That matters because homes built before 2002 predate the statewide Florida Building Code and its stronger wind provisions.
After the storm passes
- Stay out of flood water; it can hide live wires and debris.
- Turn off power to wet areas only if you can do it safely.
- Get documents, photos, and electronics out of the water.
