Cesspool Pumping & Service in Bay Shore, NY

What homeowners in Bay Shore should know

Bay Shore (11706) is a South Shore hamlet in the Town of Islip and the main gateway to Fire Island, with ferries running from the foot of Main Street. It has our office on Longshore Street, a busy downtown, marinas along the Great South Bay and residential streets stretching north to Sunrise Highway.

Bay Shore is one of the most densely populated parts of the South Shore. Homes close to the water sit on low ground with a shallow water table, while inland neighborhoods are higher and drier. Some of the hamlet may be on public sewer, but a lot of it is not, and many properties still use older cesspools. Heavy use and aging rings are the usual causes of trouble, and storms or high tides can saturate the ground around a system.

For a backup or overflow, call (631) 383-4797. Our office is on Longshore Street in Bay Shore, and the phone is answered 24/7.

Properties on or near the bay and canals can be subject to waterfront regulations, including county health department requirements for repairing or replacing a system. We explain what applies before any scheduled work begins, and you get the price before we start.

Along Main Street and the marinas, restaurants and marine businesses generate grease and heavy water use. We clean grease traps and pump commercial systems, and can set a schedule that fits your season.

Many Bay Shore customers call us because they have seen a problem for a while and kept hoping it would go away. A slow drain that returns every few weeks, a gurgle in the toilet or a damp patch near the system is worth a call before it turns into an overflow.

If you are not sure whether your house is on sewer or a cesspool, we can look. We find the lid, open it and tell you what the property has and what condition it is in. Request a free estimate for planned work, or call at any hour if something is backing up.
