Water damage risks in Mineola
New apartment buildings
In multi-story buildings, a failed supply line, sprinkler head or washing machine can damage several floors. Report leaks to building management immediately so they can shut off the riser, then call your renters or condo insurer.
Older single-family homes
Many Mineola houses date from the 1910s to the 1950s, with basements, aging boilers and original drain lines. Basement backups and burst pipes in the first deep freeze are the most frequent problems.
Offices and storefronts
Law offices, medical practices and shops around the courthouse and Jericho Turnpike need quick drying to stay open. See commercial water damage.
Water damage in Mineola right now? Do this first
Shut off the water
In most Nassau homes with a basement, the main valve is on the wall facing the street, next to the water meter. Your water district, village or water company can shut the curb valve if yours fails. The number is on your water bill.
Stay safe around electricity
Do not walk through water near outlets, appliances or the panel. Turn off power at the breaker only from a dry spot.
If drains are backing up
Most of Nassau is on public sewers. If a basement drain backs up, stop using water. If only your home is affected, call a plumber to clear the house line. If neighbors are affected too, also call your sewer authority.
