After Hurricane Ida, Nassau County began flood mitigation work funded by state grants, with drainage improvements targeting Lawrence. The work includes check valves, pipes, leaching basins and bulkheading. The county's Five Towns Drainage Study also proposes pipe improvements along Meadow Lane, Causeway Road and Barrett Road in Lawrence, and backflow prevention devices on outfalls in Woodmere. Those are proposed projects, not finished ones.
For a homeowner, that means drains can still back up while the work is pending. Backflow devices exist because bay water can push back up a drain when tides and storms combine. If water comes up through a floor drain or a low entry, stay out of it, shut off power to the affected area if it is safe, and call us. Sewage-tainted water needs containment and sanitizing, not just drying.
How We Handle Losses in Five Towns
Lawrence, Woodmere and Hewlett drain toward the bay, so tidal and storm water can back up through outfalls into low streets. We extract standing water, set drying equipment, and document moisture readings so the insurance file reflects the full loss.
Mold usually follows water in Five Towns homes. A basement that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a humid summer can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Five Towns usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain or ice dams. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
