Having flooding issues in your Great Neck home? Call SERVPRO to extract the water using specialized machines to make your home better than ever.

Damage can occur quickly in a natural disaster, so our SERVPRO team responds fast to begin extraction, drying, and cleaning. 

Flash flooding can be a monumental disaster for Great Neck homes, especially when the property gets completely caught off-guard. Penetrating water requires the attention of water restoration professionals on our roster as well as our experienced, licensed residential contractors.

Flood damage to Great Neck homes can often be the worst in the basement areas, with pooling water at times as deep as several feet. With many potential health hazards, including shocks, live animals, and contaminants, removing the water and the muck should get handled by experienced professionals like our SERVPRO team.

What Tools Can Remove Standing Water in the Basement? 

Before muck-out, content management, or even structural repairs can be successfully implemented, and standing water must get removed. We have multiple extractors that can handle this task, and we choose them based on the severity of the situation and the location of damaged areas. Some of our options include:

• Gas-powered trash pumps
• Truck-mounted extractors
• Wet vacuums

Flooding can be destructive, but our SERVPRO of Great Neck / Port Washington team can help with fast extraction and drying solutions. Give us a call at (516) 767-9600.
