24/7 Emergency
Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Clifton, NJ
From wind-driven rain to flash flooding, crews board up, extract, and dry the structure, then document everything for the claim. Storm and flood recovery starts with extraction and structural drying, then documenting the loss for an insurance or flood claim. Because floodwater carries soil and debris, affected porous materials are removed rather than dried, and the structure is re-checked as it dries.

Frequently asked questions
The dam is for a park now. Why would it still wet a basement?
Because it still holds the river up. Dundee Pond is a water table against the flats, park or not. A 1951 basement on that side of town is a hole next to a raised river. Lowering the dam is not on the table, so the house has to live with the level the dam chose.
The house is on the Watchung slope. Is the Passaic still involved?
As the outlet, yes. Runoff off the trap rock still has to reach the river, and a full combined sewer on the way will surcharge uphill of the flats. The slope's own problem is the uphill cut. Two wet walls, two causes, one June storm.
Water up the floor drain versus a wet wall. How do I tell?
A wet wall is groundwater from the dam or the hill. Water up a drain during the storm is the sewer. One is relatively clean; the other is not. The cleanup and the fix are different, and treating a surcharge as seepage leaves the valve uninstalled.
