Aberdeen Township sits on Raritan Bay in northern Monmouth County. Many residents still use a Matawan mailing address. Strathmore was built by Levitt starting in the early 1960s; Cliffwood Beach began as a bayfront summer resort and became year-round after World War II. When plumbing fails or bay water rises, MaxClean Restoration answers 24/7.
Aberdeen areas we cover
Strathmore, Cliffwood, Cliffwood Beach, Oakshades, River Gardens, Freneau and streets around the Aberdeen-Matawan train station, plus businesses on Route 34 and Route 35. Neighboring towns: Matawan, Hazlet, Keyport, Holmdel and Old Bridge.
Where water damage comes from in Aberdeen
Sixty-year-old Strathmore houses. Levitt-built homes now have aging supply lines, shutoffs, drains and additions. Slab-on-grade sections and lower levels are where that water ends up.
Bayfront flooding in Cliffwood Beach. Low ground along Raritan Bay and local creek mouths floods in nor'easters and tropical storms. Storm and surge water is contaminated — we sanitize as well as dry.
Sump and groundwater pressure. Heavy rain pushes groundwater toward foundations; sump failures soak finished lower levels.
Appliances and frozen pipes. Water heaters, washing machines and winter freezes cause sudden indoor losses across the township.
What to do in the first hour
- Turn off the water at the main valve if you can reach it safely. If you can't find it, check your Home Emergency Plan, or set one up today.
- Cut power to wet areas only if you can reach the panel without stepping in water.
- Move what you can(rugs, boxes, electronics) off wet floors, and put foil or blocks under furniture legs.
- Take photos before anything is thrown away.
- Call us at 732-539-2942 and let your insurance company know there's been a loss.
Our 5-step water damage process
- Inspect. We use thermal imaging and penetrating and non-penetrating moisture meters to map where the water went, including behind finished walls and under flooring.
- Extract. We remove standing water and saturated carpet pad. Clean water from a supply line often lets us save more. Groundwater and bay/storm water are handled as contaminated.
- Dry. Commercial dehumidifiers and air movers are placed for the room's size and materials. We dry in a controlled way to limit cracking and cupping.
- Monitor. We take readings every day and pull equipment only when materials reach normal dry levels. Air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators control odor and dust during the work.
- Restore. Our reconstruction technicians replace drywall, baseboard, flooring and paint. You won't need to hire a second contractor.
Water damage insurance for Aberdeen homeowners
Whether a water loss is covered depends on your policy and where the water came from. A burst pipe, groundwater coming through the foundation and bay flooding are often treated differently, and some need a separate endorsement or a flood policy. Check your declarations page or ask your agent.
We send the invoice to your insurance carrier on your behalf, but the invoice is still the homeowner's responsibility. That includes your deductible and anything your carrier doesn't pay. We document every room with photos and moisture readings for your adjuster.
In New Jersey, homeowners usually have the right to choose their own restoration contractor. We specialize in working with both homeowners and insurance companies to make sure the work is properly documented and covered, so your home gets back to its pre-loss condition.
