Oceanside sits on low, filled ground between Long Beach Road and the bay marshes, so many emergencies here start with weather. Others are the ordinary failures of a 70-year-old house. Our Oceanside page has the history, and the emergency plumber page has a general checklist.

Half the hamlet in the high-risk zone

Our overlay of FEMA's flood map on the Census Bureau's Oceanside boundary puts about 49% of that area in the high-risk flood zone: about 44% in zone AE and 5% in the coastal VE zone. Another 7% is in the moderate-risk (0.2% annual chance) zone. The boundary includes some water, about 9% of its area, but even on land the high-risk share is large. On those streets, a storm tide or a long nor'easter can do two things at once: push water into a basement and load the sewer so drains back up.

Before the next storm

Know where your main water valve is and make sure it turns.
Keep anything you care about off the basement floor near the floor drain.
If sewage has come up through a floor drain before, ask about a backwater (sewer check) valve on the house sewer. It closes when the street sewer backs up.

After the water goes down

Don't relight a gas water heater, boiler or dryer that sat in water, salt water especially. Its controls and gas valve can be damaged even if it looks fine. Shut off the gas to it and call. If you smell gas, leave the house and call National Grid at 1-800-490-0045 or 911.

When it isn't the weather

The Census Bureau's latest survey shows 36% of Oceanside homes built in the 1950s and 18% in the 1960s, and 93% are owner-occupied. In houses that age, the emergencies we see on a dry day are a split supply pipe, a failed washing machine hose, a water heater leaking from the bottom, or a main drain that has finally closed up. For a leak, close the main valve first. For a backup, stop all water use, including the washer and dishwasher.

Questions

Emergency plumber in Oceanside: FAQ

Sewage came up the floor drain during the storm. Is the cleanup our job?

The part inside your house is. If the whole street is backed up, report it to the county at (516) 571-6900. Once it drains, we clear and check your line, and we can add a backwater valve so it doesn't happen again.

The water heater was in two feet of water. Can it be saved?

Usually not, and it shouldn't be relit until it's checked. Floodwater gets into the burner, controls and insulation. We'll tell you honestly.

We're in the moderate-risk zone, not the high-risk one. Do we need to worry?

Less, but the moderate zone is the next ring out. A sewer that backs up in a big storm can still reach your floor drain if your house sits low.
