Town of Babylon, answered 24/7
Flood and water damage restoration in Babylon, NY
Canal water in the yard or a nor'easter through the doors? The Town of Babylon sits right on the Great South Bay, and flooding is the job we see most.
- Answering 24/7
- Canal and bay flooding
- Basements and crawl spaces
Quick answer
Flooding in Babylon, NY comes from the bay as often as from the sky: Sandy destroyed homes on the canals of Lindenhurst, and a March 2018 nor'easter battered Amityville and Lindenhurst again. Floodwater is handled as contaminated, so soaked materials come out. We pump out, clean, dry and rebuild, answering 24/7.
What restoration looks like in the Town of Babylon
Babylon's southern neighborhoods sit on canals and the Great South Bay, with a lot of houses a few feet above high tide. Coastal storms and nor'easters push water into yards, crawl spaces and ground floors, and saltwater comes with it.
Further north, it's the usual Long Island mix: basements in heavy rain, burst pipes in winter and puffbacks from oil heat.
Sandy and the nor'easters on the South Shore
Sandy destroyed homes on the canals of Lindenhurst, and New York State later bought some 700 heavily damaged homes in Nassau and Suffolk from their owners. A March 2018 nor'easter battered Amityville and Lindenhurst again.
Houses that stayed have flooded before and may again, which is why we document water lines carefully and rebuild with materials that can take getting wet.
