Located in Polk County, Frostproof is a lake-dotted inland community of roughly 2,900 residents. Frostproof is a citrus town in southern Polk County on the shores of Lake Reedy and Lake Clinch, known for its Lake Wales Ridge groves. Water damage here follows the pattern of the area: older citrus-country homes, lakefront properties, and newer developments. When water gets into one of those buildings, the clock starts immediately, because Florida's warm, humid air lets mold begin growing in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Frostproof sits roughly 112 feet above sea level. If you are dealing with a leak, a flooded room, or storm damage in Frostproof, call (305) 789-7628 any time, day or night.
