Call 631-614-5063Located in the South Shore area, Freeport (11520) is a short drive from Baldwin, Merrick and Roosevelt. Freeport was among the hardest-hit South Shore communities during Hurricane Sandy in October 2012, when storm surge flooded a large number of homes.
Flooding history in Freeport means many owners are already familiar with flood claims, documentation, and the importance of fast drying. Because many properties were repaired or raised after flooding, older and newer systems often sit side by side. After the fire is out, water used to put it out frequently causes more damage than the flames, so drying and smoke cleaning go together. Corroded fittings and connections are more common near the bays, and they can be an ignition source.
Knowing these local conditions helps crews in Freeport plan cleaning and protect what can be saved.
