This home in Ortley Beach had all of the dirt and sand from
below its foundation, as well as their entire front and back yards washed away
during Hurricane Sandy. The force of the storm was so great that more than 6
feet of earth was swept away, leaving the home an actual island surrounded by dirty
flood waters. This home had been sitting like this for three months, with 2
feet of pilings visible, a moat filled with water and debris, and the
homeowners unable to easily access their belongings.
Joe Wehner & Sons Contracting, LLC was lucky enough to be
selected by the homeowner to help return them back to their home – and were happy
to be a part of this momentous occasion. The first step in the process was to remove
the mountain of debris in the front and around the home. Next, Joe and his
crew had to bring in more than 20 loads of sand which his machines worked
diligently to relocate under the structure, as well as all around it. Joe
Wehner & Sons Contracting, LLC would like to thank the homeowners for this
opportunity and we look forward to helping others who were affected by
Hurricane Sandy.
