AfterDamage Restoration in Hollywood, FL
Storm and disaster restoration in Hollywood typically runs $2,800-$8,500 for residential flood recovery, with emergency board-up and roof tarping starting at $400-$1,200. We’re Back to Dry Restoration, and we dispatch crews to Hollywood from our South Florida office with live phone coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at (786) 384-5591. Every job starts with a written price before anyone touches your property, documented to IICRC standards with photo records on every visit.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood sits at near-sea-level elevation between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, which means storm surge from the east and Intracoastal backflow from the west can hit the same property simultaneously during named storms and king-tide events. The beachside A1A corridor is dense with 1960s-1980s concrete-block mid-rise condominiums now subject to Florida’s post-Surfside SB 4-D milestone inspection mandates, forcing building associations to confront decades of deferred waterproofing failures on flat roofs and post-tensioned slabs.
Inland, the dominant stock is 1950s-1970s CBS single-family homes built before the post-Andrew wind and waterproofing code overhauls. Year-round relative humidity above 70% compresses the safe response window to 24-48 hours before mold colonization begins, making containment protocol non-negotiable on virtually every job. Restoration crews here regularly discover original 1960s-70s cast-iron drain stacks inside shared walls have corroded through, saturating drywall and framing across two or three vertically stacked units before any resident notices - a pattern almost never seen in neighboring Pembroke Pines or Dania Beach.
Our Main Hollywood Services
Water damage and mold calls dominate our Hollywood dispatch logs, but fire and smoke losses run higher per-claim along the condo corridor where shared HVAC systems carry odor and soot between units.
Water Damage Restoration in Hollywood
Water damage restoration in Hollywood means working fast in 70%+ humidity where mold colonization starts within 24-48 hours. We see burst supply lines in aging beachside condos cascade through multiple floors, and inland CBS homes with original cast-iron drains that fail inside slab or wall cavities. Our crews document moisture readings room-by-room using Dri-Eaz and Injectidry systems, producing the daily drying logs that turn insurance claims into payable invoices. Water Damage Restoration in Hollywood
Mold Remediation in Hollywood
Mold remediation in Hollywood is driven by the same humidity and aging building stock that makes water damage so common. Post-Surfside SB 4-D inspections are revealing decades of deferred waterproofing in beachside condos, and inland homes with original 1950s-1970s construction lack modern vapor barriers. We establish containment, run negative air pressure, and remove affected materials with documented photo records on every visit. Mold Remediation in Hollywood
Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Hollywood
Fire and smoke damage restoration in Hollywood presents unique challenges in the A1A corridor’s mid-rise condos, where shared HVAC ductwork carries odor and soot between units even when flames never left the origin apartment. We handle structural deodorization, contents cleaning, and reconstruction with written scopes before work begins. Our documentation package includes photo records and moisture readings where suppression water adds secondary damage. Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Hollywood

BeforeAfterStorm & Disaster Restoration in Hollywood
Hollywood’s near-sea-level position between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal makes it vulnerable to simultaneous storm surge and backflow flooding during named storms, while its 1950s-1980s housing stock - inland CBS homes and beachside flat-roof condos built before post-Andrew code changes - suffers disproportionate roof and envelope failures. Storm & Disaster Restoration from Back to Dry means documented emergency response: written price before work starts, photo records on every visit, and drying logs that satisfy adjusters who have seen too many unsupported invoices.
Flood Damage Restoration
Signs you need it
Standing water in living spaces, water lines on walls, buckled flooring, or saturated drywall after storm surge, backflow, or roof failure.
What it costs in Hollywood
Flood damage restoration in Hollywood typically ranges $2,800-$8,500 for residential recovery, with category 3 (black water) losses at the higher end due to required demolition and sanitization.
How we do it
We extract standing water, remove saturated porous materials, deploy B-Air and Phoenix dehumidification systems, and produce daily psychrometric logs until moisture readings return to dry standard.
Emergency Board-Up
Signs you need it
Broken windows, compromised doors, or structural openings from wind damage, flying debris, or forced entry during storm response.
What it costs in Hollywood
Emergency board-up in Hollywood typically runs $400-$1,200 depending on opening count, height access, and whether marine-grade materials are needed for wind resistance.
How we do it
We measure and secure openings with code-compliant materials, photo-document before and after states, and leave a written scope for permanent repairs with pricing before any reconstruction begins.

Sewage Cleanup in Hollywood
Hollywood’s aging 1950s-1970s inland homes and 1960s-1980s beachside condos share deteriorating cast-iron and clay sewer infrastructure that backs up with increasing frequency, especially during king-tide events when Intracoastal pressure overwhelms low-lying drainage systems. Sewage Cleanup from Back to Dry follows IICRC protocols for category 3 water with documented containment, extraction, and sanitization - plus the written price before work starts that Haven Standard, Clause 1 requires.

Multiple drains backing up simultaneously, gurgling toilets, or raw sewage emerging from floor drains in basements or ground-level units.
What it costs in Hollywood
Sewage backup cleanup in Hollywood typically ranges $1,500-$5,000 depending on affected square footage, whether the spill reached wall cavities, and required material removal.
How we do it
We establish containment and negative air pressure, extract black water with sealed disposal, remove saturated porous materials, and apply EPA-registered disinfectants with ATP verification before clearance.
Sanitization & Disinfection
Signs you need it
Visible contamination has been removed but odor persists, or occupancy is planned for immunocompromised residents requiring verified hygienic clearance.

Standalone sanitization and disinfection in Hollywood typically runs $800-$2,400 for residential spaces previously affected by category 3 water.
How we do it
We apply hospital-grade disinfectants with electrostatic or fogging delivery, test with ATP bioluminescence meters, and document readings in your job file for adjuster review.

How long before sewage damage becomes permanent in Hollywood’s humidity?
At Hollywood’s sustained 70%+ relative humidity, category 3 water contaminates porous materials within hours and mold colonization begins in 24-48 hours, making same-day response critical for salvageability. Call (786) 384-5591 - our lines are live 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup in Hollywood
Hollywood’s dense beachside condo corridor and aging rental stock inland see biohazard situations where privacy, documentation, and rapid response matter: unattended deaths in units where humidity accelerates decomposition, trauma events in properties where multiple residents share walls and HVAC, and hoarding conditions in inherited 1950s-1970s CBS homes. Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup from Back to Dry means background-checked, uniformed technicians who arrive with license numbers documented and leave with photo records, written scopes, and verified clearance.
Trauma & Unattended Death Cleanup
Signs you need it
Death has occurred on the property with biological material present, whether discovered immediately or after an extended period in Hollywood’s humid climate.
What it costs in Hollywood
Trauma and unattended death cleanup in Hollywood typically ranges $2,500-$7,500 depending on decomposition stage, affected square footage, and structural material penetration.
How we do it
We use OSHA-compliant PPE, remove biologically contaminated materials with sealed medical waste disposal, apply enzymatic cleaners and disinfectants, and document clearance with photo records and written verification.
Hoarding Cleanup
Signs you need it
Accumulated contents block functional use of rooms, create fire hazards, or conceal pest infestation, mold, or structural damage in inherited or long-unmaintained properties.
What it costs in Hollywood
Hoarding cleanup in Hollywood typically runs $3,000-$10,000 depending on volume, biohazard discovery during removal, and required structural repairs revealed once contents are cleared.

Reconstruction & Cleanup in Hollywood
