Located on the North Shore of Suffolk County in the Town of Huntington, Cold Spring Harbor (11724) is a short drive from Huntington, Centerport and Greenlawn. Fireplaces and chimneys in older homes add another source of fire and smoke damage, especially when flues are not maintained.
Heating-system puff-backs are a recurring cause of soot damage in older homes with oil burners. Many North Shore homes are older and were renovated in stages, so wiring of different ages often sits inside the same walls. Smoke damage to plaster walls, hardwood, and built-in woodwork calls for careful cleaning so original finishes can be saved where possible.
In practice, crews in Cold Spring Harbor handle board-up, soot and odor removal, and drying of any firefighting water in one coordinated effort.
