Mold Removal in the Village of Roslyn, NY, Where Groundwater Sits Close

In the Village of Roslyn, groundwater is a real suspect for a wet lower level, so an assessment here starts by ruling it in or out before you pay for drying or sealing. The USGS well inside the village read the water table 10.26 feet below the surface, while a well in neighboring Roslyn Heights, on higher ground, read about 85 feet down.

Tell us the town, the lowest level of the house and where the damp is showing. In Nassau that is usually enough to say whether the water is coming up from the ground or out of the house, and which licensed trade the job needs.

Six quick questions about the house and where the damp is showing, then your details. It takes about a minute.

Question 1What are you dealing with?
Question 2Which part of the county is the house in?

How far down the water sits under a Nassau house changes a great deal from the South Shore to the North Shore hills. Near the bays and harbors it can be close to the surface. Under much of the middle of the island and the hills it is far below the floor, so damp there usually comes from the house itself. The town is enough, and not sure is a fine answer.

Question 3What is the lowest level of the house?

A house built on a concrete slab, a house with a basement and a house over a crawl space get wet in different ways, and the fix is different for each. Many homes in this county were built on slabs with no basement at all.

Question 4Where is it showing up?

Where the damp appears is the first clue to which way the water came. Damp that starts low and spreads up points one way, and damp around a fixture, a window or a ceiling points another.

Question 5How long has this been going on?

Something that got wet in the last day or two can often still be dried. Something that has stayed damp for weeks usually cannot, and the job changes.

Question 6What would you like to happen next?

In New York the company that assesses mold and the company that removes it cannot be the same company on one job, so it helps to know where you want to start.

Roslyn village or Roslyn Heights: why the answer differs

Roslyn, Roslyn Heights, Roslyn Estates and Roslyn Harbor share a name and little else. The Village of Roslyn keeps its own building department, Roslyn Heights is unincorporated and answers to the Town of North Hempstead, and the ground under each sits at very different depths. This page is about the Village. Its well stands about 58 feet above sea level near the head of Hempstead Harbor, and the village has 44 paid flood insurance claims since 1978 against 24 policies, so outside water is a known quantity here. That makes the direction question sharper, not simpler. USGS links a shallow water table with a greater chance of water reaching below-grade space, yet a floor ten feet above the table can just as easily have a supply line leaking into it. More than a third of Roslyn homes are rented and about one in five units is in a larger building, where water from the unit above is the first thing to rule out.

A booking service, not the contractorWe arrange the job and a separately licensed New York firm carries it out, sets its own price and signs its own agreement with you.
The firm that assesses never removesState law keeps the company that writes the mold plan apart from the company that carries it out, and bars one owner from holding a stake in both on your property.
Every trade licensed and insuredEvery firm we book holds the New York license its part of the work calls for, and you can look any mold license up on the state's own open register.
