Water damage in Hastings-on-Hudson
Hastings-on-Hudson is a village in the Town of Greenburgh, set on hills above the Hudson River across from the Palisades. Yonkers lies to the south and Dobbs Ferry to the north. In the late 1800s, wealthy New Yorkers built estates on its hillsides while industry grew along the waterfront.
Hillside lots send storm water toward houses, and older homes often have plaster walls and masonry foundations. Those materials can hold moisture for a long time, so ask the contractor to take readings before closing anything up.
When you send a request from Hastings-on-Hudson, we pass it to a local water damage restoration contractor who serves your area. They contact you, inspect the damage, take moisture readings and give you a written scope and price. You decide whether to hire them.
Before help arrives, close the main water shutoff if the water is coming from your plumbing, stay away from wet electrical areas and photograph everything. If you smell gas, leave the house and call 911 or your gas utility. Move what you can off wet floors, but leave demolition to the contractor. If the water came from a toilet, sewer or outside flooding, say so in your request, because sewage backup cleanup needs different handling.
Ask any contractor in Hastings-on-Hudson for a Westchester County home improvement license number, proof of insurance and a written scope that lists what will be removed and how drying will be measured. If mold is already visible, see mold remediation.
