Our Story
Flooded Basement Cleanup in Rochester and Monroe County
Frank Sullivan founded Basement Recovery Experts to handle the specific demands of water damage in Rochester's older housing stock. Operating from the base at 260 E Main St, the company focuses on Flooded Basement Cleanup and Basement Water Extraction across neighborhoods like Park Avenue, East Avenue, and Charlotte, as well as nearby Brighton, Irondequoit, and Pittsford.

Properties near High Falls or the Rochester Public Market often sit on terrain where groundwater moves quickly after thaws, requiring fast extraction to prevent further structural issues.

Estimates & advice
What to expect, start to finish
Initial Assessment and Safety Check
A technician arrives at the property in Monroe County during business hours and inspects the flooded basement, noting water depth, affected square footage, and any structural concerns common in older homes near High Falls or the Rochester Public Market.
Basement Water Extraction
Pumps and extraction equipment remove standing water, with extra attention given to properties in Park Avenue or East Avenue where clay-heavy soil and older foundations can trap moisture after heavy winter snowmelt.
Drying and Dehumidification
Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers run until moisture levels stabilize, accounting for Rochester's humid continental climate that slows drying in basements around Charlotte during cold months.
Final Cleaning and Inspection
Surfaces are sanitized and the space is checked for hidden dampness before the crew departs from the 260 E Main St location, leaving the basement ready for any needed repairs.

What Rochester, NY Customers Say
“A burst pipe flooded our basement storage area in Brighton with six inches of water. Basement Recovery Experts pumped everything out the same afternoon, placed dehumidifiers and air movers, and returned daily to check readings until moisture levels dropped below 12 percent. No mold appeared and we kept all our holiday decorations.”
“Heavy overnight rain sent water through the foundation wall into our Irondequoit laundry room. The crew extracted the water, removed the wet carpet pad, treated the concrete with an antimicrobial, and ran drying equipment for two days. The floor dried evenly and we avoided any musty smell.”
“Our sump pump failed during a spring thaw and water covered the finished basement floor in Henrietta. They arrived quickly, vacuumed the water, dried the subfloor with targeted fans, and helped move furniture to prevent staining. The space was ready for use again within seventy-two hours.”
