Water damage risks in Tarrytown
Historic homes
Older homes in Tarrytown have plaster walls, wood floors, old roofs and decades of plumbing changes. They can usually be restored well after water damage, but they need careful drying rather than fast demolition.
Hillside runoff
Streets and lots slope steeply toward the river. Heavy rain sends water toward foundations and into lower levels, especially where downspouts empty next to the house.
Riverfront buildings
Newer buildings close to the Hudson face different risks: shared plumbing between units, parking garages and low-lying areas that can take on water in extreme storms.
Water damage in Tarrytown right now? Do this first
Shut off the water
In most Westchester homes, the main valve is in the basement where the water line comes in, next to the meter. In apartments, co-ops and condos, call the super or managing agent, who can shut off the riser. On a private well, turn off the well pump at its breaker.
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 southern and central Westchester is sewered, while many northern Westchester homes use septic systems. For a sewer backup, stop using water and call a plumber and your city, town or village. For septic, call a septic service company.
