Merrick (11566) is one of the communities in the South Shore area; neighboring areas include Bellmore, Freeport and Wantagh. After the fire is out, water used to put it out frequently causes more damage than the flames, so drying and smoke cleaning go together.
Homes near the water often have a mix of older and rebuilt sections, which can mean different wiring and materials inside the same house. Coastal humidity and salt in the air wear down electrical connections, a factor in some fires near the water. Puff-backs from aging heating systems are a recurring cause of soot damage in coastal homes.
That is why a prompt call matters in Merrick: smoke residue keeps damaging surfaces the longer it sits.
