Welcome to Fox Point, RI
Fox Point is one of Providence’s most distinctive waterfront neighborhoods. Nestled along the banks of the Providence and Seekonk Rivers, this historic East Side community blends colonial-era architecture, vibrant cultural influences, and a lively, walkable environment. With tree-lined streets, 19th-century homes, and an intimate neighborhood scale, Fox Point offers a charming blend of past and present that attracts families, students, professionals, and long-time residents alike.
The area’s maritime identity and welcoming energy shine brightest around the beautifully restored India Point Park—a local treasure featuring green space, waterfront paths, and recreational access that links Fox Point to nearby East Providence. Whether you’re grabbing coffee on Wickenden Street, biking the shoreline, or enjoying an outdoor performance at the park, Fox Point has a distinctive blend of character and community that makes it one of Providence’s most beloved neighborhoods.
Why Fox Point Is Unique
Fox Point stands apart for its diversity of architecture and activity. Many of its historic homes date back more than 150 years, with classic New England construction features such as brick chimneys, wood siding, tight rooflines, and stone foundations. These older structures add charm—but also create unique challenges when facing moisture intrusion, aging plumbing, storm surge, or outdated electrical components.
The neighborhood’s identity is also shaped by its strong Portuguese, Cape Verdean, and Azorean heritage, celebrated in local bakeries, restaurants, and cultural traditions. Its close proximity to College Hill, Wayland Square, downtown Providence, and the waterfront makes it both connected and self-contained, with everything from riverside paths to specialty shops within walking distance.
Things to Do in Fox Point, RI
Fox Point blends history, recreation, and culture:
Walk or bike the waterfront paths at India Point Park.

Enjoy views of theProvidence River from pedestrian overlooks and green spaces.
Hop onto the East Bay Bike Path for a scenic ride towardEast Providence or Bristol.

This mix of water access, walkability, and historical significance makes Fox Point appealing—but also exposes local properties to specific environmental and structural challenges that can lead to damage.
Water Damage Restoration in Fox Point, RI
Fox Point’s geography makes water damage restoration a critical service for homeowners and business owners. With the neighborhood bordering both rivers and positioned at low elevation near Narragansett Bay, several conditions increase the risk of flooding and moisture intrusion:
Seasonal storm surges can push water inland toward river-adjacent properties.
Heavy rainfall and snowmelt may overwhelm drainage systems in historic homes.
Older foundations often allow water seepage, especially in basements and crawlspaces.
Coastal storms and Nor’easters bring wind-driven rain that can infiltrate roofs and siding.
Whether it’s a burst pipe in a multifamily home, a flooded first floor of a Wickenden Street business, or hidden moisture in a historic property, SERVPRO of Fox Point, RI provides extraction, drying, dehumidification, and structural repair to prevent further damage and mold growth.
Fire Damage Restoration
Many Fox Point buildings are older, closely spaced, and constructed with materials that require special care after fire or smoke events. These factors elevate the need for reliable fire damage restoration:
Aging electrical systems may increase fire risk in older homes or apartments.
Mixed-use buildings—retail below, residences above—can experience smoke spread between units.
Tight urban streets can slow emergency access during a fire event.
After a fire, SERVPRO of Fox Point, RI handles board-up services, smoke and soot removal, structural cleaning, odor elimination, and full reconstruction. From small kitchen fires to larger structural losses, our team restores properties with precision and respect for the neighborhood’s historic character.
Storm Damage & Coastal Weather Risks
Fox Point’s waterfront location makes it uniquely vulnerable to coastal storms, Nor’easters, and heavy wind events. Damaging gusts, uprooted trees, and wind-driven rain can impact roofs, siding, and windows. Storm surges may also cause overland flooding, especially during high-tide weather systems.
SERVPRO of Fox Point, RI provides:
Emergency board-up and tarp services
Extraction and drying after floodwater intrusion
Debris and tree-limb removal
Reconstruction for damaged exterior features
Our team is staffed and equipped for fast, large-scale response when severe weather affects multiple homes and businesses in the community.
Mold Remediation in a Waterfront Community
With high humidity levels and close proximity to the water, mold growth is a common issue in Fox Point—especially in older structures with porous materials or moisture-prone basements. Hidden leaks, past flooding, and improper ventilation can allow mold colonies to develop behind walls, under flooring, or inside attics.

What our Fox Point
customers are saying
SERVPRO was very quick to respond, I pulled into my driveway and they Ray was waiting for me. He had workers and equipment by the early afternoon. After the drying out, Brian was on top of putting everything back together. SERVPRO went above and beyond, especially when it’s hard to get workers and products. I hope never to have to use them again but if I do they will be my first phone call. Even the paperwork for the insurance was taken care of by them. For a stressful thing to happen, SERVPRO was awesome.
The cleanup team was very prompt and had the affected areas cleaned up and dried out efficiently. The reconstruction team did a great job communicating with our insurance provider on what was needed to restore the area and at the end of the project, the area looks good as new.
More than satisfied with SERVPRO!!! The whole team was easy to communicate with. Professional, friendly, well coordinated, and most of all, excellent work!!! Remodeled my basement after water damage. Everything looks great!!! Anthony and Mark (SERVPRO) awesome guys!!!
We are so pleased with the work of Anthony, Mark, and the whole construction division at SERVPRO. They did such a great job reconstructing the floors, walls, and ceilings after a water leak. We are thrilled with the finished product.
I am very satisfied in my selection to go with SERVPRO of Providence for the reconstruction of my home after a traumatic flood event. The reconstruction and insurance team of Brian Regan, Anthony Olaes, and Lynn Crawford made the process as painless as possible, and their expertise in project management and insurance really put me at ease. This team is extremely professional, and their phone accessibility really went a long way. Outside of that, and just as important, the work done in reconstructing my home was of great quality!
The team at SERVPRO Providence was amazing to work with. They made sure they completed the job to our standards and satisfaction. We would use them again.
