Your Local Water Damage Restoration Experts in Forest Hills
If you're in Forest Hills and need water damage restoration, Prime Restoration & Construction is your local expert. We've been serving Queens County and the surrounding areas for over 25 years, and our crews know Forest Hills properties inside and out.
Queens' two-family homes and attached houses mean that damage in one unit often affects a shared wall, basement, or neighboring property, which adds coordination to every restoration job. The borough's mix of older single-family homes and denser multi-family blocks each come with their own quirks — older homes often have outdated electrical and plumbing, while attached homes require careful containment to avoid affecting neighbors. We've restored and renovated properties across Queens for years and know how to navigate parking, access, and co-op or landlord approval where it applies.
When you call Prime, you get a team that understands the specific challenges facing Forest Hills homeowners. We're licensed, insured, and available 24/7 for emergencies. Call us at 631-922-9900 or request a free quote online.

Client Reviews
What Our Queens County Clients Say
“Our basement flooded at 2 AM during a Nor'easter. Prime had a crew here within an hour, extracted all the water, and set up drying equipment. They handled the entire insurance claim for us. Couldn't believe how fast and professional they were.”

Our Process
How Water Damage Restoration Works in Forest Hills
Emergency Assessment
We arrive fast, identify the water source, assess the category of water damage, and document everything with thermal imaging and moisture meters.
Extraction & Drying
Industrial extractors pull standing water, then we deploy commercial dehumidifiers and air movers for complete structural drying — monitored daily until moisture readings hit target.
Restoration & Rebuild
Once dry, we rebuild affected areas — drywall, flooring, trim, paint — matching original finishes. Your property looks like the damage never happened.
FAQ
Water Damage Questions in Forest Hills
In most cases, yes — sudden and accidental water damage (burst pipes, appliance failures, storm-related leaks) is typically covered under standard homeowners policies. We work directly with your insurance carrier, handle the documentation, and bill them directly so you don't have to front the cost. Slow leaks that developed over time may be handled differently, so we'll help you understand your coverage during the assessment.
We're on call 24/7 and target a 60-minute response time across Suffolk, Nassau, and NYC boroughs. Water damage worsens by the hour — mold can begin forming within 24-48 hours — so fast extraction is critical. Call us the moment you discover the damage.
Most residential water damage jobs take 3-5 days of active drying, though larger or more severe damage can take longer. We monitor moisture levels daily with professional meters and don't remove equipment until all affected materials are at their dry standard. You'll get daily updates on progress.
