24/7 Emergency
Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Biddeford, ME
From wind-driven rain to flash flooding, crews board up, extract, and dry the structure, then document everything for the claim. Storm and flood recovery starts with extraction and structural drying, then documenting the loss for an insurance or flood claim. Because floodwater carries soil and debris, affected porous materials are removed rather than dried, and the structure is re-checked as it dries.

Frequently asked questions
What did filling the mill raceways leave under those blocks?
A network of old channels that still wet. The dam raised water into canals that powered the mills; when the canals were filled, the voids and the water they carried did not disappear. A basement on that terrace can take moisture from below with no storm and no plumbing failure, because the path is the industrial hydrology the city was built on.
Why does Camp Ellis keep losing ground when the river is right there?
The jetties that keep the harbor mouth open also trap the sand that used to drift onto the spit. Without that supply, winter storms take more beach than the next season returns. Houses on the point then see surf and overwash that a stable beach would have broken further out.
Does an October peak change what a frozen basement does later?
Yes. The wettest month is the last one before freeze-up, so the water that October puts in the soil is still there when the ground locks. Frost then widens foundation joints around that moisture, and the spring thaw tests openings that were tighter in September.
