Great River is one of the communities on Suffolk's South Shore; neighboring areas include Oakdale, East Islip and West Sayville. Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 brought record coastal flooding to the Great South Bay, with a surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet along the southwest Suffolk shore, according to the National Weather Service.
The August 2014 storm dropped a state-record 13.26 inches of rain on Islip, and basements in the surrounding area flooded. Low-lying streets near the water can flood from the bay and from the sky at the same time. With flood-zone properties common here, crews put real effort into clear records of the loss for carriers and flood policies.
That is why a quick call matters in Great River: the sooner drying starts, the more flooring, drywall, and belongings can be saved.
Nearby areas served include Oakdale, East Islip and West Sayville. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Great River and mold remediation in Great River.
Sewage from a failed cesspool or septic system needs containment and sanitizing, not just drying. Many policies treat backups separately, so check what yours covers.
Yes, sewage cleanup is included, with sanitizing and proper disposal of contaminated materials.
Yes. Salt-water flooding calls for extraction, removal of contaminated materials, sanitizing, and thorough drying, and documentation matters for flood-policy claims.
Safety depends on contamination and electrical conditions. Crews assess the situation and advise on whether to stay.
Prompt extraction and controlled drying can save many floors and walls. Porous materials soaked for days are harder to save.
