Winter Haven water damage: an on-call water and sewer team, and permits in Accela
Who lives here
Winter Haven had 49,219 residents in the 2020 census and 62,313 in the Census Bureau's July 1, 2025 estimate. For 2020 to 2024 the Bureau reports a 63.7 percent owner-occupied rate.
The city's chain of lakes means many homes sit near water; check FEMA's flood map for the property, because flood is a separate policy from homeowners coverage.
Who to call, and permits
The City of Winter Haven's Water Department says to call its on-call water and sewer team at 863-291-5853 for urgent water utility needs outside business hours. If the water is inside your home, close the main valve, then call or text CFDR and Ryan will match you with a restoration company.
Building permits are handled at 490 Third Street NW, 863-291-5695, through Accela Citizen Access; the city's older ePlans site no longer takes new applications. Winter Haven is in the National Weather Service Tampa Bay Area forecast area, zone FLZ052.
