Call 631-538-4433Located on the South Shore, Woodmere (11598) is a short drive from Hewlett, Cedarhurst and Inwood. Low elevation and a high water table near the South Shore bays make Woodmere more prone to flooding than inland areas.
Flooding from the bay often brings salt water and contamination, which calls for different cleanup and disposal steps than a burst pipe. Low-lying lots mean that a stalled sump pump during a big storm can put a basement under water fast. Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 pushed storm surge into many South Shore neighborhoods, and its flooding history still shapes how property owners here think about water.
For Woodmere property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
The same crews cover nearby Hewlett, Cedarhurst and Inwood. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Woodmere and mold remediation in Woodmere.
