About Goffstown
Goffstown sits on the Piscataquog River below the Uncanoonuc Mountains, with Pinardville at the Manchester line and Goffstown Village upriver. The river is the story here: ZIP 03045 has 157 federal flood insurance claims on record with $2,999,518 paid, the most of any ZIP we cover, and 98 of those claims came from the floods of 2006 and 2007 alone (OpenFEMA). If water came in from the river or from the ground, it is a flood claim, not a homeowners claim.

About 54% of occupied homes here heat with fuel oil (Census ACS). On the coldest nights a furnace that runs out of oil or quits is how a basement freezes; set up automatic delivery or watch the gauge. Keeping pipes from freezing.
Flood is a real exposure here. The federal flood insurance program has 157 claims on record in this ZIP code, with $2,999,518 paid. Flood water from outside is excluded from most homeowners policies, so it matters which kind of water got in. Insurance claims in New Hampshire.

Questions
Do you cover all of Goffstown?
Yes, including ZIP 03045. Whoever calls you back will check that your address is in their area.
How fast can someone come out?
It depends on the day and how many calls follow a cold snap or a storm. Say in your request if water is still coming in, or if the house has no heat. The company will tell you when they can come.
Do I get a price first?
Ask for a written scope and price before work starts. With active water, drying often starts on the first visit; ask what the first day will cost and how drying is billed before you sign.
