Storm restoration in Melbourne

Melbourne is Brevard County's largest city, an aerospace and technology community of over 85,000 on Florida's Space Coast - a stretch of Atlantic shoreline with Cape Canaveral jutting directly into open ocean and no natural protection from approaching storms. The Indian River Lagoon runs parallel to the coast through the county, and surge water channels through it well beyond the beachfront, threatening barrier island and lagoon-side properties alike. Hurricane Matthew in 2016 tracked nearly directly up this coastline as a Category 3 and destroyed or damaged over 1,600 homes; Irma in 2017 pushed additional surge from the Cape northward; and even Hurricane Ian in 2022, which made landfall more than 150 miles to the southwest, still spawned tornadoes, tropical-storm-force winds, and widespread inland flooding across Melbourne and Palm Bay. A high water table and flat terrain make flooding the county's most frequent hazard, a vulnerability that reaches every corner of the community. We connect Melbourne homeowners with vetted, licensed local pros for a free assessment.

Local specialists for Melbourne storm damage

Brevard County sits along 72 miles of Atlantic coastline with Cape Canaveral jutting directly into the open ocean, making it one of Florida's most hurricane-exposed counties with no natural barriers on the barrier islands. Storm surge is the primary life-safety threat: Hurricane Frances (2004) pushed roughly 8 feet of surge near Sebastian Inlet, Hurricane Matthew (2016) tracked almost directly up the coastline as a Category 3 and flooded all of A1A while destroying or damaging over 1,600 homes, and Hurricane Irma (2017) produced 3-5 feet of surge from Cape Canaveral northward. The Indian River Lagoon system channels surge water inland well beyond the beachfront, threatening barrier island and lagoon-side communities alike from Sebastian Inlet north through Titusville. Flooding is the county's most frequent hazard countywide due to a high water table and flat topography - Tropical Storm Fay (2008) dropped a record 27.65 inches of rain at Melbourne - and even distant landfalls such as Hurricane Ian (2022), which struck 150 miles to the southwest, still spawned tornadoes, tropical-storm-force winds, and widespread inland flooding across Palm Bay and Melbourne.
