NYS and NYC M/WBE Certified Contractor
When water damage hits your Selden home, you don’t just want it fixed—you want it fixed right, fast, and without the headaches that come with dealing with insurance companies and unreliable contractors.
That’s exactly what happens when you call Green Island Group NY. Your property gets restored to its pre-damage condition using industrial-grade equipment that removes every trace of moisture, not just what you can see on the surface.
You get your peace of mind back knowing the job was done by licensed, bonded, and insured professionals who’ve been handling water emergencies across Suffolk County for years. No surprises, no shortcuts, no coming back to “fix” what should have been done right the first time.
We’ve been serving Suffolk County since 2012, and we understand something most restoration companies miss: Selden’s unique challenges.
Your hamlet sits in the Town of Brookhaven, where aging housing stock meets Long Island’s increasingly unpredictable weather patterns. We’ve seen how quickly a small leak in a basement can turn into a major mold problem when Suffolk County’s humid summers create perfect growing conditions.
We know the local building codes, work directly with your insurance company, and arrive with enough manpower and materials to get the job done right. We’re not just another restoration company—we’re your neighbors who happen to be really good at fixing water damage.
First, we respond immediately to your call. We arrive with advanced moisture detection equipment to assess not just what you can see, but what’s hidden behind walls and under floors.
Next, we remove standing water using powerful extraction equipment and begin structural drying. We set up industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to eliminate moisture from affected materials. This isn’t just about removing visible water—it’s about preventing the mold growth that can start within 24-48 hours.
Finally, we restore damaged areas to their original condition. We handle everything from drywall replacement to flooring restoration, and we work directly with your insurance company to make the claims process as smooth as possible.

Your water damage restoration includes immediate water extraction, structural drying, dehumidification, mold prevention, and complete property restoration. We handle everything from burst pipes and basement floods to storm damage and appliance failures.
What makes this especially important in Selden is our location in Suffolk County, where coastal climate conditions create ideal environments for mold growth. Long Island’s “thousand-year storms” are becoming more frequent, and our aging housing stock means water can find ways into your home that newer construction wouldn’t allow.
We use EPA-approved procedures and industrial-grade equipment specifically designed for Suffolk County’s unique challenges. We’re available 24/7 because water damage doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither should your restoration company.
We provide 24/7 emergency response to Selden and throughout Suffolk County, typically arriving within an hour of your call. Speed matters because mold can start growing within 24-48 hours of water damage occurring.
Our rapid response isn’t just about showing up fast—it’s about immediately stopping further damage with proper water extraction and moisture detection equipment. The sooner we can begin the drying process, the more of your property we can save and the less expensive your restoration will be.
We handle all types of water damage common to Suffolk County homes: burst pipes, basement flooding, storm damage, appliance failures, sewage backups, and roof leaks. Each type requires different approaches and safety protocols.
Basement flooding is particularly common in Selden due to our area’s high water table and aging infrastructure. We have specialized equipment for basement water removal that can handle large volumes quickly while preventing structural damage that can occur if water is removed too fast.
Storm-related water damage has become increasingly frequent on Long Island. We’re experienced with insurance claims for storm damage and can work directly with your insurance company to streamline the process.
Yes, we work directly with all major insurance companies and handle direct billing whenever possible. This means you don’t have to pay upfront costs while dealing with a water damage emergency.
We document everything thoroughly with photos, moisture readings, and detailed reports that insurance adjusters need to process claims quickly. We understand what insurance companies require and can often get approvals faster than homeowners trying to navigate the process themselves.
We also help determine what’s covered under your policy and can recommend additional services that might be necessary to prevent future problems, even if they’re not covered by insurance.
Mold prevention starts immediately with proper water extraction and moisture detection. We use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to find hidden water that standard equipment might miss.
Our industrial dehumidifiers and air movers create conditions that prevent mold spores from taking hold. Suffolk County’s humid climate makes this especially critical—what might be fine in a drier climate can become a mold problem here within days.
We also treat affected areas with antimicrobial solutions when appropriate and monitor moisture levels throughout the drying process. If mold is already present, we have certified technicians who can handle remediation according to New York State guidelines.
First, ensure your safety—don’t enter areas with standing water if there’s any possibility of electrical hazards. If it’s safe, try to stop the water source by shutting off your main water valve or the supply to a specific appliance.
Take photos for insurance documentation, but don’t spend too much time on this if water is still spreading. Move valuable items to dry areas if you can do so safely, but don’t risk injury trying to save belongings.
Call us immediately at 631-613-8945. The faster professional restoration begins, the more of your property we can save and the less expensive the overall restoration will be. Time is critical with water damage.
Drying typically takes 3-7 days depending on the extent of damage, but restoration can take longer if structural repairs are needed. Basement flooding often takes longer due to the concrete and the difficulty of drying below-grade spaces.
The timeline also depends on what materials were affected. Hardwood floors might need weeks to properly dry, while drywall might need to be replaced entirely if it was saturated for too long.
We provide detailed timelines after our initial assessment and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is to get you back in your home as quickly as possible while ensuring the work is done properly to prevent future problems.
