Saint James (11780) sits on the North Shore of Suffolk County, with Stony Brook, Northport and East Setauket nearby. During Hurricane Sandy, the National Weather Service reported 2 to 4 feet of inundation in the lowest parts of Huntington Bay, Northport Bay, Stony Brook Harbor, and Port Jefferson Harbor.
Erosion of the Sound-facing bluffs has threatened homes in parts of the North Shore, and storms can undermine foundations on the edge. Stone and block basements common on the North Shore allow more moisture through than newer construction. Wind-driven outages leave sump pumps idle just when heavy rain makes them necessary.
That is why a quick call matters in Saint James: the sooner drying starts, the more flooring, drywall, and belongings can be saved.
