Water & Flood Damage Restoration in Elmwood Park, NJ

Elmwood Park is our next-door neighbor. The border with Fair Lawn is just a few minutes from our shop on Bergen Avenue, so when you call for water and flood damage restoration in Elmwood Park, NJ, the crew heading your way is barely leaving the neighborhood.

The river side of town

The Passaic River forms Elmwood Park’s western edge, and River Drive runs right along it. In major storms, the river can come over into nearby streets and basements, and the Dundee Dam area at the south end sees fast-moving water. River water is dirty, so we handle it as contaminated. We pump out, cut out soaked drywall and insulation, pull wet carpet, sanitize and dry. See flood damage restoration.

Homes from the East Paterson years

The borough was called East Paterson until 1973, and much of it was built in the decades before and after the change. Cape Cods, colonials and two-family homes with full basements make up most of the streets. Their plumbing is now old enough to fail: supply lines, water heaters and drains. When it does, we extract the water and dry the structure, then rebuild.

Basements near the river

Even homes that stay above the floodwater can take on water from below. When the river is high, groundwater rises too and comes through basement floors and foundation cracks. Our flooded basement cleanup gets the water out and dries the slab and walls before anything is rebuilt.

Highways, shops and offices

With the Garden State Parkway and Route 80 crossing town, Elmwood Park has plenty of stores, offices and warehouses. Our commercial restoration team extracts right away and plans repairs around your hours.
