Frequently asked questions
How does Rubicon determine if barriers fit my home?
We review opening type, threshold condition, surrounding water approach, and required measurements before final engineering confirmation.
Can I get an exact price online?
Rubicon uses quote-based pricing after assessment because each opening and deployment requirement is site-specific.
Do I still need to prepare before hurricane season?
Yes. Barrier fit, installation readiness, and deployment planning should be completed ahead of active storm periods.
Does Rubicon serve all of Florida?
Rubicon Flood Control is a Southwest Florida installer (Cape Coral based). We focus on Lee, Collier, and surrounding SWFL markets — not nationwide catalog sales.
When are sandbags a bad comparison to barriers?
Sandbags may help for one-off events but recurring labor, disposal, and setup time often favor reusable measured panels when opening flooding repeats each season.
What photos should I send before assessment?
Full opening from 6–10 feet back, both side edges, threshold and floor line, and a close-up of the bottom seal — the same guidance as the Visual Fit Check.
