How storms hit Tarpon Springs

Tarpon Springs sits on the Anclote River and the Gulf, so surge and river flooding affect waterfront areas and the Sponge Docks, and hurricane wind affects the whole city.

Tarpon Springs is at the northern end of Pinellas County, on the Anclote River. It is known for its historic Sponge Docks and Greek heritage, and for Spring Bayou and the Victorian-era homes around it. Waterfront neighborhoods sit along the river, the bayous, and the Gulf.

Who pays, and who keeps the claim

Emergency board-up and tarping are part of protecting the property from further damage, which most policies expect. We document everything we do. Coverage is up to your policy.

Tarpon Springs by the numbers

About 9% of housing units in Tarpon Springs are mobile or manufactured homes, where manufactured homes are among the most wind-exposed structures in a storm. The Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey puts Tarpon Springs at about 25,355 residents. The median home in Tarpon Springs was built around 1984 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey); homes built before 2002 predate the statewide Florida Building Code and its stronger wind provisions. About 12% of units are in buildings with 10 or more units, so wind-driven rain gets in around sliders and windows on upper floors.

Securing and drying out

  1. Board up broken windows, sliders, and doors with metal panels.
  2. Tarp damaged roof sections to stop more water getting in.
  3. Extract storm and flood water from floors and carpet.
  4. Set air movers and dehumidifiers and track moisture readings until dry.
  5. Record each source of water apart, because wind and flood are often different policies.
