On September 2, 2021, the Pompton River read 18.8 feet against a 16-foot flood stage, and the Ramapo River also passed flood stage in the township. The night before, Wayne police reported manhole covers coming up near French Hill Road and flooding at Greenwood and Sherman avenues that left vehicles stuck.
Water that comes from a river or from overloaded storm drains is contaminated, so a wet basement is a cleaning job as well as a drying job. We extract standing water, remove materials that cannot be saved, disinfect and dry with monitored equipment. If the storm water came up through a floor drain, treat it as sewage and keep children and pets away until the area is cleaned.
How We Handle Losses in Wayne
Wayne's setting combines river flooding from the Pompton and Ramapo, storm water pushing through sanitary lines in heavy rain, and sump pumps that fail when a long storm meets a power outage. Cold snaps add frozen pipes. We prepare for river water in lower levels, sewage backups and wind damage from tropical remnants.
Mold usually follows water in Wayne 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 Wayne 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.
