The National Weather Service recorded record flooding along the Great South Bay during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, with surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet on the southwest Suffolk shore.
Tropical Storm Isaias in August 2020 left more than 420,000 PSEG Long Island customers without power, and outages like that leave sump pumps idle. Water from the bay is not clean water, and sanitizing and removing affected materials is a bigger part of the job. Raised homes protect living areas, but lower-level enclosures and utility equipment remain exposed to flooding.
In practice, crews in Patchogue focus on stopping the source, removing standing water quickly, and drying structure and contents to acceptable moisture levels.
Crews also serve nearby Bellport, Blue Point and Brookhaven. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Patchogue and mold remediation in Patchogue.
Crews handle bay and surge flooding, which involves salt water and debris and usually needs more than drying alone.
Shut off the water if possible, avoid electrical hazards, and photograph the damage before anything is moved.
Drying time varies with the extent of water, the materials, and conditions, and it is monitored until moisture readings reach normal levels.
Burst or frozen supply lines, failed sump pumps, appliance and water heater leaks, roof leaks, and storm flooding are among the usual causes in Patchogue.
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.
