Water, fire and mold damage in Port Jefferson: what we see
Port Jefferson is a harbor village with the ferry to Connecticut, a downtown that sits at the bottom of steep hills, and the village of Belle Terre with its larger homes on the bluffs. Housing includes older village homes, apartments and condos, and estates in Belle Terre.
The hills send storm water downhill toward the harbor and downtown, so heavy rain can flood low areas and lower levels quickly. Up on the hills and in Belle Terre, roofs, pipes and basements are the usual sources. We handle all of it, 24/7.
Common problems in Port Jefferson homes
- Storm water flooding downtown
- Heavy rain runs down the hills toward the harbor and floods low streets and lower levels.
- Older village homes
- Aging plumbing and foundations in older houses fail and leak.
- Bluff-top storm exposure
- Homes on the bluffs in Belle Terre take wind-driven rain in coastal storms.
