Great River sits on Suffolk's South Shore, with Oakdale, East Islip and West Sayville nearby. The National Weather Service recorded record flooding along the Great South Bay during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, with surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet on the southwest Suffolk shore.
On August 13, 2014, 13.26 inches of rain fell at MacArthur Airport in Islip, a New York State 24-hour record that flooded parts of southwest Suffolk. Water from the bay is not clean water, and sanitizing and removing affected materials is a bigger part of the job. Being near the bays means Great River deals with tidal and storm-driven water that communities farther inland rarely see. For Great River property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
Crews in Great River also handle fire and smoke damage and mold remediation, so one call covers whatever the loss involves.
Crews handle bay and surge flooding, which involves salt water and debris and usually needs more than drying alone.
A backup is sewage, not clean water, so crews contain the area, remove affected materials, and sanitize. Coverage for sewer or septic backup varies by policy, so ask your carrier.
Moisture left in walls and under floors encourages mold and can warp flooring and swell framing, so complete drying matters.
Drying time varies with the extent of water, the materials, and conditions, and it is monitored until moisture readings reach normal levels.
Safety depends on contamination and electrical conditions. Crews assess the situation and advise on whether to stay.
Nothing to pay for the first look, and if it's covered, your carrier gets billed — not you.
