The winter freeze is here in the Long Island/Oyster Bay area of New York. Conditions have been below freezing for the past few days. Water supply pipes are more likely to freeze or break than usual.

There are some things you can do to help yourself and your family avoid this kind of catastrophe. First stop the water flow by finding the shutoff. 

The next step is to remove any water-logged items from the room, such as curtains, area rug, toys, and clothing. The better it is to get rid of damp items. Mold growth can be accelerated by excess humidity so it is important to get it out of the home.

SERVPRO is your next best call. Our water damage restoration team can provide the right drying equipment and services to remove wet materials like carpets and sheetrock quickly from your home. We will then provide dehumidification services in order to stop mold growth.

We can also provide complete construction services for replacing carpets, flooring and sheetrock as well as cabinets and other items.

We are available 24/7 to assist you with your restoration needs.
