Water, Fire & Mold Damage Restoration in Matawan, NJ

Serving Matawan Borough and Aberdeen area.

Matawan is a borough in the Bayshore area of northern Monmouth County, with a historic downtown, many older homes, and lakes and creeks running through town, including Lake Lefferts and Matawan Creek.

Its location near Raritan Bay and its tidal creek mean that some low-lying parts of Matawan face flooding during major coastal storms, and Sandy's 2012 storm surge flooded low-lying streets in Matawan and neighboring Aberdeen. Heavy rain can also push water into basements in older neighborhoods. Flood water from outside is treated as contaminated, so affected porous materials such as carpet, drywall and insulation usually need to be removed, not just dried.

Older Matawan homes may also have plaster walls, older plumbing and stone or block foundations, which need careful drying and assessment.

We serve Matawan and the surrounding Bayshore communities, handling flood cleanup, water damage, mold, sewage, fire and smoke, and the rebuild afterward.

Matawan FAQs

Is flood water from a storm different from a burst pipe?

Yes. Outside flood water is considered contaminated, so porous materials it touched usually need to be removed and the area disinfected.

Does homeowners insurance cover flooding?

Standard homeowners policies usually exclude outside flooding; that's typically covered by separate flood insurance. Check with your agent. We document damage for either type of claim.

Can you prevent mold after a flood?

Fast, thorough drying is the best prevention. We remove what can't be saved and dry the structure completely.
