Woodmere is part of the Town of Hempstead's PSEG service territory, and much of this area's housing predates the underground electric distribution that's become more common in newer construction — overhead lines here are more exposed to storm damage, which is a real contributing factor in weather-related electrical fires.
On a call in Woodmere, we ask about the property's line type — overhead or buried — as part of the initial assessment, not as an afterthought.
If it's not fire & smoke damage restoration you need in Woodmere, we handle the rest too — same crew, same call.
