Water Damage Restoration in Bass River, MA

Bass River is the neighborhood of South Yarmouth that runs along the river itself, from the Route 28 bridge to West Dennis down to the mouth at Nantucket Sound. The Judah Baker Windmill, built in 1791, stands on the bank at Windmill Beach, and the streets behind it hold a mix of 1800s houses, 1950s cottages, and newer homes built on the same low lots. Many are summer places.

The river is tidal the whole way, and the neighborhood is at its level. A storm tide on Nantucket Sound backs up the river and puts salt water in yards, crawl spaces, and first floors along River Street and the beach roads. The January 4, 2018 nor'easter did exactly that. Between storms, the water table is close enough to the surface that a crawl space here rarely dries out on its own.

We connect Bass River homeowners with an independent local water damage provider by phone. You say what you found, and the provider takes it from there.

Bass River water damage, at the river's level

A cottage with salt water in the first floor after a storm tide is flood cleanup, handled as contaminated water. Standing water under the house after a wet winter needs crawl space water extraction and a look at the joists. A pipe that froze in a closed-up summer house is frozen pipe cleanup, and the crew starts by working out how long it ran.

Where to call in Bass River

Bass River is part of Yarmouth, so rebuild permits go through the town building department on Route 28. The windmill and Windmill Beach belong to the town too. Tell the crew if the house is a summer place and how to reach you during the week.
