I Need A Tarp LLC is headquartered in Doral [LINK to homepage], a short drive north of University Park, and our crews cover the area along with the surrounding Miami Dade communities. We answer calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
University Park is built around Florida International University's main campus, which brings close to 54,000 students to the area. The housing reflects that: a mix of multi-unit rental buildings concentrated near campus, along with single family homes, condos, and ranch style houses across the surrounding streets.
That mix of owner occupied and tenant occupied property shapes how water damage tends to unfold here.

That mix of owner occupied and tenant occupied property shapes how water damage tends to unfold here.

In rental housing, water damage is usually found late. A tenant notices a damp patch and assumes it is nothing, or reports it days after it started, or discovers it on returning from a trip. By the time the owner hears about it, the water has been sitting long enough to reach materials well beyond where it started.
Multi-unit buildings add a second problem. A failure on an upper floor rarely stays in one apartment, and the same leak can affect the units below and beside it before anyone identifies the source. Sorting out what happened where matters, because owner and tenant responsibilities differ and each affected unit may involve a separate conversation.
The construction here works against early discovery too. Homes and buildings sit on concrete slabs, so water travels sideways across the floor and wicks up into walls rather than draining away.
We document unit by unit, recording conditions and moisture readings separately for each affected space, and we map moisture with meters and thermal imaging before removing anything. For rental property, we also work to a schedule, because a unit that is not dry is a unit that is not earning.

Our primary service and the reason most people call. We extract standing water, dry the structure with monitored equipment, and confirm the property has reached dry standard before we close the file. This covers burst pipes, appliance failures, roof and ceiling leaks, and storm flooding.


South Florida humidity means mold can follow a water loss within days. We contain the affected area under negative pressure, remove materials that cannot be cleaned, and verify each zone with clearance sampling before signing it off.


Fire leaves layered damage. Soot begins etching surfaces within days while suppression water starts a separate clock. We address both together, treating residue, removing smoke odor at the source, and documenting contents for the claim.


Most companies stop after demolition. We carry the job through reconstruction, rebuilding drywall, flooring, framing, and finishes so your property is returned to the condition it was in before the loss.









Rental property has a clock on it. Every day a unit sits wet is a day it cannot be leased, so we dry to readings and monitor daily rather than leaving equipment running on a fixed schedule and hoping.
We document thoroughly, which matters when more than one party is involved. Conditions and readings recorded unit by unit give an owner, a tenant, and an insurer the same account of what happened rather than three different versions.
We are a family owned company with a team of 15, and the owners oversee the crews that show up. We work in English and Spanish, and we answer calls at any hour.
Our office is in Doral and our crews work throughout the surrounding communities of Miami Dade. Every service listed above is available in each of these areas, with the same response and the same documentation standard regardless of which city you are calling from.
Here are answers to common questions about our restoration services.

Photograph everything before anything is moved or cleaned, then get extraction started. The record supports your claim and it also establishes what condition the unit was in, which matters if there is any question about the cause.
It depends where the failure occurred and what the lease and any association documents say. Documenting the source separately from the damage is what settles it, which is why we record conditions unit by unit.
Most residential drying reaches dry standard in three to five days, with repairs after that. Larger losses and saturated flooring take longer. We monitor daily so the equipment comes out as soon as the readings allow.
It usually means a larger affected area rather than a different process. Water that sat for days has spread further and is more likely to have started mold, so mapping the full extent matters more. [Mold Remediation]
University Park is a short drive from our Doral office, and we take calls 24 hours a day. We dispatch as soon as we have the details.
Both. Much of our work comes through public adjusters and claims firms, and we also handle direct pay for owners who prefer not to file. Documentation is the same either way.
