HomeServing Suffolk County, NY
Any water problem. One call.
Water where it shouldn't be? Skip the search for a contractor. One call connects homeowners with a local water damage specialist.
Get to the right specialist without forms or comparing ads. Tell us what's going on, and we connect you with a local specialist who covers your area: water damage, including sewage inside the house, or mold. Not sure what's causing it? Describe what you see; you don't need to know the cause.
Water doesn't stay where it lands. It soaks into drywall, insulation and flooring, and mold can start within 24 to 48 hours. Most homeowner's policies also expect you to protect the house from further damage, so acting early helps your claim too.

What we help with
What is happening at your home?
How it works
From your call to a dry house
- Answer a few questions
What is happening, whether you own the home, and your ZIP code. Plain words are fine.
- We connect you
Water damage goes to a restoration specialist, mold to a mold specialist, each covering your ZIP code.
- They take it from there
The specialist arranges a visit, then does the work: drying out the house, or removing the mold.
Why your town matters
The same problem can be a different job in the next town
Two homes a few miles apart can have the same wet basement and still need a different fix. It depends on the house: whether it is on a sewer, how close the groundwater is, and whether it is in a flood zone.
For example, take Bay Shore and North Bay Shore, two towns that share a border, 2 miles apart. Here is what we found when we compared them:
Who clears a sewage backup?
96% of its developed land is in a sewer district.
A backup is a blocked line. A plumber clears the pipe to the street; the sewer district clears the main.
None of its developed land is in a sewer district.
A backup means a cesspool or septic tank, and a pumping company.
Will water in the basement come back?
71% of its addresses (5,744 of 8,132) have groundwater within 14 ft, close enough to reach a basement floor.
Water can seep up through a basement floor and come back after pumping. Seepage is generally not covered by homeowner's or flood insurance.
1% of its addresses (54 of 3,706) have groundwater within 14 ft, close enough to reach a basement floor.
Water in a basement usually comes in from above: rain, a pipe or an appliance.
Do you have flood insurance?
283 of its 8,138 addresses are inside FEMA's mapped flood zone.
Most mortgage lenders must require it for homes in the zone. It covers water that comes in from outside.
None of its 3,706 addresses is inside FEMA's mapped flood zone.
Lenders do not require it here, so check your policy: homeowner's insurance does not cover water that comes in from outside.
