Keyport — the "Pearl of the Bayshore" — is a compact waterfront borough on Raritan Bay. Most streets sit on higher ground, but land near the waterfront and creeks is low. During Sandy, dozens of Keyport homes took several feet of water inside. Indoor plumbing failures hit older houses and Front Street businesses year-round. MaxClean Restoration answers 24/7.

Keyport areas we cover

The waterfront and West Front Street business district, blocks near Beers Street and Luppatatong Creek, the Matawan Creek side of town, and residential streets uphill from the bay. Neighboring towns: Aberdeen, Hazlet, Matawan, Holmdel and Middletown.

Where water damage comes from in Keyport

Bay surge in the low blocks. Waterfront and creek-side homes can take several feet of surge in major storms. Treat that water as contaminated; don't try to dry it with household fans alone.

Older borough plumbing. Compact lots and older houses mean aging supply lines, drains and water heaters fail without much warning and soak finished floors fast.

Creek overflow and storm drains. Luppatatong and Matawan Creek sides of town see backup and overland flow after long rains.

Business district losses. Front Street shops and restaurants lose inventory and finishes when a pipe breaks overnight or storm water enters a lower level.

What to do in the first hour

  1. 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.
  2. Cut power to wet areas only if you can reach the panel without stepping in water.
  3. Stay out of surge-flooded rooms until the water drops; treat bay water as contaminated.
  4. Take photos before anything is thrown away.
  5. Call us at 732-539-2942 and let your insurance company know there's been a loss.

Our 5-step water damage process

  1. 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.
  2. Extract. We remove standing water and saturated carpet pad. Clean water from a supply line often lets us save more. Bay, creek and drain water are handled as contaminated.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Restore. Our reconstruction technicians replace drywall, baseboard, flooring and paint. You won't need to hire a second contractor.

Water damage insurance for Keyport 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 surge 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.
