Call 631-710-6526Located on Suffolk's North Shore in the Town of Huntington, Northport (11768) is a short drive from Saint James, East Northport and Stony Brook. During Hurricane Sandy, the National Weather Service reported 2 to 4 feet of inundation in the lowest parts of Huntington Bay, Northport Bay, Stony Brook Harbor, and Port Jefferson Harbor.
Storm outages, like the one Isaias caused in August 2020, are a common reason sump pumps fail when they are needed most. Stone and block basements common on the North Shore allow more moisture through than newer construction. Sloped lots and mature landscaping around Northport homes can channel rain toward basements after a storm.
That is why a quick call matters in Northport: the sooner drying starts, the more flooring, drywall, and belongings can be saved.
The same crews cover nearby Saint James, East Northport and Stony Brook. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Northport and mold remediation in Northport.
Prompt extraction and controlled drying can save many floors and walls. Porous materials soaked for days are harder to save.
Crews handle bay and surge flooding, which involves salt water and debris and usually needs more than drying alone.
That depends on the water source and the damage. Contaminated water or electrical hazards can make a home unsafe, and crews can advise after a quick assessment.
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.
Shut off the water if possible, avoid electrical hazards, and photograph the damage before anything is moved.
