Call 631-239-7110Oakdale (11769) is in the Town of Islip, along Suffolk's South Shore, close to West Sayville, Great River and 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.
Record rainfall on August 13, 2014 flooded roads and basements across southwest Suffolk, with 13.26 inches measured at MacArthur Airport in Islip. Being near the bays means Oakdale deals with tidal and storm-driven water that communities farther inland rarely see. Because so many homes are in flood zones, careful photos and moisture readings support the claim as much as the equipment does.
For Oakdale property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
Nearby areas served include West Sayville, Great River and Sayville. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Oakdale and mold remediation in Oakdale.
If it is safe, stop the water source, turn off power to affected areas, and move valuables to a dry place. Take photos for your insurance claim.
Yes. Salt-water flooding calls for extraction, removal of contaminated materials, sanitizing, and thorough drying, and documentation matters for flood-policy claims.
Often, yes, when drying starts quickly and uses proper equipment. Materials that stayed wet too long may need replacement.
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.
Drying time varies with the extent of water, the materials, and conditions, and it is monitored until moisture readings reach normal levels.
