Hurricane Season Prep & Storm Damage Restoration | Long Island

Hurricane Season Preparedness for Long Island Homeowners

Hurricane season is here, and for homeowners on Long Island it brings the risk of flooding, water damage, and storm damage. At Advanced Restoration, we have over 35 years of experience helping families recover from hurricanes, tropical storms, and Nor’easters. While our team is available 24/7 for emergency service, the best protection starts with preparation.

1. Inspect Your Home for Storm Readiness

Check your roof for loose shingles, clean your gutters, and trim back trees near your home. Securing outdoor furniture and equipment can prevent them from becoming projectiles in high winds.

2. Reduce Flooding Risks

Many hurricane losses on Long Island come from flooding and water intrusion. Test your sump pump, clear outdoor drains, and consider using sandbags or barriers if you live in a low-lying area. Taking steps now can prevent the need for major flood damage restoration later.

3. Protect Important Documents

Keep insurance papers, identification, and medical information in a waterproof container or scan and store them digitally. Easy access after the storm can speed up your insurance claim.

4. Build a Hurricane Emergency Kit

Every Long Island family should have bottled water, non-perishable food, flashlights, batteries, and medications on hand. Being prepared makes recovery smoother if power goes out or roads are closed.

5. Know Who to Call for Storm Damage Restoration

Even with preparation, hurricanes can still cause severe water damage, structural damage, and mold growth. That’s why it’s essential to have a trusted restoration company ready.
