Hackensack River Flooding - Basement Recovery
Bogota, NJ • Completed September 2024
Following heavy rainfall that caused the Hackensack River to overflow its banks, a Bogota homeowner returned from work to find their basement flooded with contaminated river water. The water level had reached 18 inches, affecting the furnace, water heater, electrical panel, and finished living space. Given Bogota's proximity to the river and the town's flood-prone areas, this was unfortunately a familiar scenario. Our team responded within 45 minutes, understanding the urgency of flood water contamination. We immediately began water extraction while coordinating with a licensed electrician to safely disconnect power. Our crew worked through the night to remove all contaminated water and materials, treating the space with antimicrobial solutions appropriate for flood water exposure.
