No more soggy carpets or musty smells. No more worrying about mold growing behind your walls or wondering if your floors are going to buckle.
When we finish a flood restoration job in Herricks, you get your space back the way it should be—dry, clean, and safe for your family. Your insurance paperwork is handled. Your property value is protected. And you can actually sleep at night knowing the job was done right.
We don’t just remove water and call it done. We make sure everything is properly dried, sanitized, and restored so you don’t have to deal with expensive problems down the road.
Green Island Group has been handling water emergencies across Nassau County since 2012. We’re a certified, woman and minority-owned business that understands what Herricks homeowners face when disaster strikes.
Living on Long Island means dealing with everything from burst pipes in winter to storm surge from nor’easters. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to fix it. Our team has completed over 5,000 restoration projects, so when we show up at your door, you’re getting people who actually know what they’re doing.
We’re not some fly-by-night operation. We’re licensed, insured, and we follow all New York State regulations because your safety matters more than cutting corners.
First, we show up fast—usually within hours of your call. Our team assesses the damage and creates a plan that makes sense for your situation and your budget.
Next, we get the water out using powerful extraction equipment. We’re not talking about shop vacs here—we use industrial-grade pumps and vacuums that can handle serious flooding. Then comes the drying phase, where we set up specialized dehumidifiers and air movers to pull moisture from walls, floors, and everything else.
The final step is restoration. We repair what needs fixing, replace what can’t be saved, and make sure everything meets safety standards. Throughout the process, we handle your insurance paperwork and keep you updated so you’re never wondering what’s happening next.

When you hire Green Island Group for flood restoration in Herricks, you’re getting a complete solution. We handle water extraction, structural drying, mold prevention, and full restoration services. Our team works directly with your insurance company to streamline claims and reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Nassau County properties face unique challenges. Between the coastal storms that hit Long Island and the aging infrastructure in many Herricks homes, water damage can happen fast and get expensive quickly. That’s why we use advanced moisture detection equipment to find hidden water that other companies miss.
We also understand local building codes and permit requirements, so if your restoration needs structural work, we can handle that too. You get one company managing the entire process instead of juggling multiple contractors who don’t communicate with each other.
We typically arrive within hours of your call, and we’re available 24/7 for emergencies. Time matters with water damage because every hour that passes increases the risk of mold growth and structural problems.
Our emergency response team is stationed to serve Nassau County, so we don’t have to travel far to reach Herricks properties. When you call our emergency line at 631-256-5711, you’re connected to someone who can dispatch our crew immediately, not a call center three states away.
We also keep our trucks fully stocked with extraction equipment, so we can start removing water as soon as we arrive instead of having to go back for supplies.
Most homeowners insurance policies cover water damage from internal sources like burst pipes, leaking appliances, or roof leaks. However, flood damage from external sources typically requires separate flood insurance coverage.
We work directly with insurance companies every day, so we know how to document damage properly and present claims in a way that maximizes your coverage. Our team will photograph everything, create detailed reports, and communicate directly with your adjuster to speed up the process.
If there are coverage questions or disputes, we can provide the technical documentation needed to support your claim. We’ve helped hundreds of Herricks homeowners navigate insurance claims successfully.
Mold prevention starts with speed and proper drying techniques. We use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to remove moisture from the air and building materials within 24-48 hours, which is the critical window before mold starts growing.
We also use moisture meters to check inside walls and under flooring to make sure everything is completely dry, not just surface-dry. If we find areas that can’t be properly dried, we remove and replace those materials rather than leaving potential mold problems for later.
Our team applies antimicrobial treatments to affected areas as an extra precaution. We also monitor humidity levels throughout the drying process to ensure conditions don’t favor mold growth.
We handle all categories of water damage, from clean water leaks to contaminated flood water. This includes burst pipes, appliance failures, storm damage, sewage backups, and basement flooding.
Each type of water damage requires different safety protocols and restoration approaches. Clean water from a broken pipe is handled differently than contaminated water from a sewer backup or storm surge. Our team is trained and equipped to safely manage all categories.
We also handle both residential and commercial properties. Whether it’s a flooded basement in a Herricks home or water damage in a local business, we have the equipment and expertise to restore the property properly.
Most residential water damage restoration projects in Herricks take 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on the extent of damage and the size of the affected area. Simple cases with minimal damage might be completed in 2-3 days, while extensive flooding could take a week or more.
The drying phase typically takes 3-4 days with our industrial equipment running continuously. After that, we can usually complete repairs and restoration work quickly since we handle everything in-house.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on what we find during our initial assessment. We also provide daily updates so you know exactly where things stand and when you can expect to have your property back to normal.
Yes, we can bill your insurance company directly in most cases, which means you don’t have to pay the full amount upfront and wait for reimbursement. We handle all the paperwork and communication with your insurance adjuster.
Our team knows what documentation insurance companies require and how to present restoration costs in a way that ensures proper coverage. We’ve worked with every major insurance company that operates in Nassau County.
If your insurance company requires you to pay upfront, we’ll work with you on payment arrangements and provide all the documentation you need to get reimbursed quickly. Either way, we make the financial side as easy as possible so you can focus on getting back to normal.
