NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
Your floors are dry, your walls are safe, and hidden moisture is eliminated before it destroys your investment. No more wondering if water is still causing damage behind the scenes.
You get professional flood cleanup services that stop the clock on escalating damage. While other companies leave moisture behind, we use thermal imaging to find every drop and industrial-grade equipment to remove it completely.
The result? Your Bar Harbor property restored properly the first time, with documentation your insurance company accepts without question.
Green Island Group has restored flood-damaged properties across Nassau County for years, dealing with everything from coastal storm surge to burst pipes in aging homes.
We understand Bar Harbor’s unique challenges. Over 300,000 Nassau County residents live in flood zones, and we’ve seen how quickly salt water corrodes, how basement flooding spreads through older foundations, and why time matters more here than anywhere else.
Our IICRC-certified technicians arrive within an hour because we know that bacteria starts growing within 24 hours of flooding. We use thermal imaging and industrial-grade drying equipment that most restoration companies don’t have access to.
We start with a complete damage assessment using moisture detection technology to map every affected area. This isn’t guesswork – we document exactly what needs attention and create a restoration plan your insurance company will approve.
Next comes emergency water extraction using powerful pumps and vacuums, followed by structural drying with industrial dehumidifiers and air movers. We monitor moisture levels continuously, checking behind walls and under floors where hidden water causes the most expensive damage.
Finally, we restore damaged areas and work directly with your insurance company throughout the process. You get detailed documentation, direct billing, and your property returned to pre-flood condition. No surprises, no delays, no fighting with insurance adjusters.

Emergency water extraction, structural drying, mold remediation, and full reconstruction – everything needed to restore your Bar Harbor property completely. We also handle contaminated water cleanup when flooding brings sewage or storm debris into your home or business.
Bar Harbor’s coastal location creates specific challenges other areas don’t face. Storm surge brings salt water that corrodes differently than fresh water. High water tables mean basement flooding often involves groundwater seepage. Nor’easters and hurricanes create sudden, massive water intrusion that overwhelms standard drainage.
We’ve dealt with all of it. Our water removal services include direct insurance billing, 24/7 emergency response, and advanced moisture detection that finds hidden water damage other companies miss. When Nassau County flooding hits your property, you need restoration that understands local conditions.
We typically arrive within one hour of your call, 24/7, even during severe weather when other companies can’t respond. Speed matters because water damage costs double every hour it’s left untreated.
Within 24 hours of flooding, bacteria and mold begin growing in hidden areas like wall cavities and under flooring. Structural materials start deteriorating, and what could have been a manageable cleanup becomes major reconstruction. Our rapid response stops this progression and saves you thousands in additional damage costs.
Yes, we handle all insurance documentation and bill your insurance company directly. You don’t pay out-of-pocket and wait months for reimbursement.
We photograph all damage, create detailed loss documentation, and communicate directly with your insurance adjuster throughout the restoration process. Most insurance companies prefer working with certified restoration contractors because we provide the documentation they need to process claims quickly. This removes the stress of fighting with insurance companies when you’re already dealing with property damage.
We use thermal imaging cameras that detect temperature differences caused by moisture behind walls, under floors, and in ceiling cavities. This technology shows us exactly where water has traveled, even in areas that look dry on the surface.
Our industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers are more powerful than equipment most companies use. We also use calibrated moisture meters to monitor drying progress and ensure all affected materials reach normal moisture levels before we consider the job complete. This prevents mold growth and structural damage that develops weeks or months later.
Absolutely. We’re equipped and certified to handle Category 3 contaminated water from sewage backups, storm drains, and groundwater intrusion. This type of flooding is common in Bar Harbor due to coastal storm surge and aging sewer systems.
Contaminated flood water contains bacteria, viruses, and toxic pathogens that require specialized cleanup procedures. We use professional-grade disinfectants, follow EPA safety protocols, and properly dispose of contaminated materials. Our technicians wear protective equipment and use containment procedures to prevent contamination from spreading to unaffected areas.
Mold prevention in coastal areas like Bar Harbor requires aggressive drying because high humidity makes mold growth more likely. We use industrial dehumidifiers to control ambient humidity while powerful air movers create airflow that prevents stagnant moisture pockets.
Our thermal imaging technology identifies hidden moisture in wall cavities, under flooring, and behind fixtures where mold typically starts growing. We don’t consider the restoration complete until moisture readings return to normal levels throughout the affected area. This is especially important in older Bar Harbor homes where moisture can travel through interconnected spaces.
Bar Harbor’s location on Nassau County’s coast creates multiple water damage risks. Storm surge from nor’easters and hurricanes brings salt water that corrodes building materials differently than fresh water. High water tables mean basement flooding often involves groundwater seepage that’s difficult to stop.
Sea levels have risen over a foot since 1900, with projections of up to two more feet by 2050. This means storm surge reaches farther inland and basement flooding happens more frequently. Add aging infrastructure and homes built before modern waterproofing standards, and you have conditions where water damage spreads faster and causes more expensive structural problems than in other areas.
