Melbourne homes and water damage
Eau Gallie and downtown have 1920s–1950s homes. Suntree and Viera have newer homes. Many Eau Gallie and downtown homes are older wood-frame or block houses with raised floors or slabs and aging plumbing. Suntree and Viera have newer homes with attic AC and water heaters. Homes along the Indian River Lagoon face storm surge and wind-driven rain during hurricanes and tropical storms.

Frances and Jeanne damaged roofs in 2004.
Lagoon flooding
Storms push water from the Indian River Lagoon.
Humidity and mold
Wet materials grow mold within days.
AC condensate overflows
Clogged lines spill into ceilings.
Older plumbing
Older homes have cast-iron drains.
Heavy rain flooding
Summer downpours flood low streets and yards across the city.
Hidden moisture after storms
Water that gets into concrete-block walls, attics and under flooring after a storm can stay hidden for weeks in Florida humidity, growing mold behind baseboards and cabinets before it shows.
Roof age and insurance
Many Florida insurers look closely at roof age, and older shingle roofs are more likely to leak in wind-driven rain, so documenting roof condition after a storm matters for a claim.

Melbourne questions
Do I need a permit for repairs in Melbourne?
Cleanup and drying don't. Structural, plumbing and electrical repairs need permits from the City of Melbourne Building division.
Do I need flood insurance in Melbourne?
Homeowners policies exclude flood. Recent storms flooded many homes outside high-risk zones, so a separate flood policy is worth considering.
