NorthEastern Restoration Services

4.970 Google reviews

NorthEastern Restoration Services runs from a Flushing unit on 110th Street, with a 914 phone number, and its website says it serves New York and Connecticut. It lists water damage, mold remediation, fire damage and renovation repairs, plus a public adjuster referral page. Google categorizes it as a water damage restoration service and a construction company.

What people praise

  • Handled both the water damage mitigation and the restoration, and dealt directly with the insurer, one reviewer says
  • Arrived on a Sunday with the right equipment after a water tank flooded a basement
  • A basement dried out after water extraction, at a price one reviewer called fair next to national franchises
  • Careful mold job: paper laid down, work areas sealed off and cleanup afterward

Worth knowing

  • Its website is a brief list of service pages, so ask for details on scope and process

Our take: A 4.9 on a solid base of reviews with a site that lists water, mold, fire and renovation work. Good for a flooded basement that also needs rebuilding.

Our take: A perfect 5.0 from a smaller group of reviewers, and the chain's full service list sits behind it. A fair choice when a flood needs contents packed out and a larger crew.

How the scores are built

The star rating is each company’s live Google average, and volume is how many customers have rated it. Confidence weighs the two together, which is why a 5.0 from a few reviews doesn’t automatically beat a 4.9 from many more. Recency shows whether new reviews keep arriving. The figures come from public Google data, and no business can pay to change them.

What water damage restoration costs in Queens

Restoration bills follow the size of the loss, so there’s no useful single figure. The big drivers are how much water got in, how long it sat, whether it was clean water or a sewage backup, how many rooms need drying equipment and whether demolition and rebuilding follow. Ask each company for a written scope that separates emergency drying from repairs.

Restoration crews near you in Queens

H2O and SERVPRO of Northern Queens are both based in Fresh Meadows and NorthEastern Restoration is in Flushing. Reviewers mention jobs in basements, apartments and a Brooklyn building. If you’re searching for water damage restoration near me in Queens, call the closest office and ask how soon a crew could arrive.

Before you hire a restoration crew

  • How quickly can a technician be on site, and what do they do first?
  • Will you work directly with my insurance company, and what do you need from me?
  • How will you measure that the structure is dry before you remove equipment?
  • Do you also handle demolition and rebuilding, or only drying?
  • What is covered if mold shows up after the drying is done?

Frequently asked questions

Do Queens water damage restoration companies work with insurance?

Reviewers of H2O, NorthEastern and SERVPRO of Northern Queens each mention insurance. One H2O customer said the company worked efficiently with the insurers, a NorthEastern customer said Jonatan communicated directly with the insurance company, and a SERVPRO of Northern Queens customer said the office stayed in touch with them and their insurer.

Which of these firms handles a sewage backup, not just clean water?

H2O has a reviewer whose job site had a sewer backup that reached the electrical panel, and SERVPRO of Northern Queens has one whose apartment had an inch of sewer water. Tell any company up front whether the water was clean or from a drain so it can plan for the cleanup.

What does drying out a flooded basement involve?

Reviewers describe water extraction first, then fans or drying equipment left running and later removed once the space is dry. One H2O customer’s carpet was dried this way, a NorthEastern customer had a basement dried back to normal, and a SERVPRO customer had moisture and mold cleared from the whole basement.

Is SERVPRO of Northern Queens a local company?

It is a branch of the national SERVPRO brand, based in a Fresh Meadows office. H2O Water Damage Restoration and NorthEastern Restoration Services are separate local operations with their own websites.

If the water’s already in

H2O Water Damage Restoration is the safe first call for most Queens leaks and floods on volume and range of jobs. NorthEastern is worth ringing for basement drying with mold or rebuilding, and SERVPRO of Northern Queens for a bigger loss that needs a pack-out. Get the drying scope in writing.
