NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
You walk back into a home that’s completely dry, sanitized, and safe for your family. The musty smell is gone. Your floors are solid underfoot again. Your walls show no signs of water stains or warping.
Most importantly, you sleep soundly knowing the job was done right. No hidden moisture lurking behind walls waiting to cause problems months later. No mold spores threatening your family’s health. Just your home, restored to the way it should be.
That’s what proper flood restoration looks like when it’s handled by professionals who understand Long Island’s unique challenges.
Green Island Group has been serving Suffolk County homeowners through their worst water emergencies for years. We’ve seen what Hurricane Sandy did to this community. We understand how the high water tables and storm surges affect homes here differently than other areas.
When flooding hits Village Of Mastic Beach, you need someone who gets it. Someone who knows that basements flood differently here because of the coastal water table. Someone who understands that salt air affects how materials dry and what equipment works best.
That’s exactly what you get with our team – local expertise backed by professional training and the right tools for the job.
First, we arrive fast – usually within an hour of your call. Our team immediately assesses the damage and stops any ongoing water intrusion. We document everything for your insurance company while we work.
Next comes water extraction using industrial-grade pumps and vacuums. We remove every drop of standing water, then focus on moisture trapped in walls, floors, and hidden spaces. Our specialized equipment detects moisture you can’t see.
Finally, we set up commercial dehumidifiers and air movers to thoroughly dry everything out. We monitor moisture levels daily until they’re back to normal. Only then do we begin repairs and restoration work to bring your property back to its original condition.

Your flood restoration service covers complete water extraction, structural drying, moisture monitoring, and full repairs. We handle everything from carpet removal to wall reconstruction if needed.
For Village Of Mastic Beach properties, this often includes dealing with salt water damage, which requires different treatment than fresh water flooding. We sanitize all affected areas to prevent bacterial growth and use specialized equipment designed for coastal flood conditions.
We also coordinate directly with your insurance company, handling all the paperwork and documentation. Most homeowners in Suffolk County find this eliminates the biggest headache of the entire process. You focus on getting your life back to normal while we handle the technical details and insurance requirements.
We typically arrive within one hour of your call, 24 hours a day. Speed matters because water damage accelerates rapidly – especially in our coastal climate where humidity stays high.
The first 24-48 hours are critical for preventing secondary damage like mold growth and structural deterioration. That’s why we maintain emergency crews ready to respond immediately throughout Suffolk County.
When you call our emergency line, you’re speaking directly with our dispatch team who can have a crew heading to your Village Of Mastic Beach property within minutes of hanging up.
Most homeowner’s policies cover sudden water damage from burst pipes, appliance failures, and storm damage. However, coverage varies significantly between policies and flood sources.
We handle insurance claims daily and know exactly how to document damage for maximum coverage. We photograph everything, provide detailed moisture readings, and submit all required paperwork directly to your insurance company.
For flood damage specifically, you may need separate flood insurance through FEMA. We’ll help you understand what’s covered under your specific policy and work directly with your adjuster to ensure you get the full restoration your property needs.
Mold prevention starts with rapid water extraction and immediate moisture control. We use industrial dehumidifiers that remove moisture from the air while specialized air movers create airflow patterns that dry materials from the inside out.
Our technicians monitor moisture levels in walls, floors, and other materials using professional-grade meters. We don’t consider an area dry until moisture readings return to normal levels – not just when surfaces feel dry to the touch.
We also apply antimicrobial treatments to affected areas during the drying process. This prevents mold spores from taking hold while materials are still drying, which is when they’re most vulnerable to contamination.
Long Island’s coastal location creates unique challenges you won’t find inland. High water tables mean basements stay damp longer. Salt air affects how materials dry and what treatments work best.
Storm surges can push salt water into homes, which requires different cleanup methods than fresh water flooding. Salt water is more corrosive and leaves behind residue that continues damaging materials even after drying.
Our equipment and techniques are specifically chosen for these coastal conditions. We understand how materials behave in this environment and adjust our drying process accordingly. That local knowledge makes the difference between a proper restoration and one that causes problems later.
Drying typically takes 3-5 days depending on the extent of damage and materials affected. Repairs and reconstruction can add anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on what needs rebuilding.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline after our initial assessment. Factors that affect timing include the amount of water, how long it sat, what materials were affected, and whether any structural damage occurred.
Throughout the process, we provide daily updates on progress and moisture readings. You’ll know exactly where things stand and when you can expect to move back into fully restored spaces.
Yes, we work with all major insurance carriers and many smaller regional companies throughout New York State. We’re familiar with their specific requirements and documentation needs.
We handle the entire claims process for you – from initial damage assessment through final billing. Most of our customers never have to call their insurance company directly because we coordinate everything.
If there are any coverage disputes or questions, we provide detailed documentation and work directly with adjusters to resolve issues quickly. Our goal is to eliminate insurance headaches so you can focus on getting your life back to normal.
