Hilo Home Flooded by Stormwater Runoff?

6/4/2024 (Permalink)

We are leaders in flood damage restoration services in Hawaii and Maui.

Aloha! Our Hawaii and Maui teams have the training, equipment, and experience to restore damage from flooding “Like it never even happened.” Situated on the eastern side of the Big Island of Hawaii, Hilo experiences a tropical rainforest climate characterized by abundant rainfall, particularly during the wet season.

The region's steep terrain and volcanic topography further exacerbate the risk of flooding by channeling rainfall rapidly downhill toward lower-lying areas. Hilo's extensive development, including urbanized areas and paved surfaces, also reduces natural infiltration and increases surface runoff during heavy rain events. As a result, stormwater runoff can overwhelm drainage systems, leading to flash flooding in residential neighborhoods, along streams, and in low-lying areas.

Also, Hilo is susceptible to tropical cyclones and hurricanes, which can bring torrential rainfall and exacerbate flooding risks. Effective flood mitigation strategies, including improved drainage infrastructure, land-use planning, and community preparedness, are essential to address and mitigate the impacts of flooding in this area.
