Howard Beach and Hamilton Beach sit beside Jamaica Bay, and when Hurricane Sandy pushed water into the area in 2012, many basements with panels, meters and boilers flooded. Owners who rebuilt often raised equipment or moved the panel upstairs, and we still see houses where that was never done and a heavy storm puts the electrical service at risk.
North of the Belt Parkway, Ozone Park and South Ozone Park are blocks of attached and semi-detached one- and two-family houses, many on 60- or 100-amp services that now carry central air, a dryer and sometimes a basement apartment. Service upgrades and meter work are the most common jobs there.

What to know about Howard Beach
South Ozone Park/Howard Beach had a homeownership rate of 69.7 percent in 2024, more than double the citywide 32.7 percent, and the rate has risen 4.5 points since 2010. Almost every job here is for an owner, and after a storm many of them ask the same question: whether the panel, meter and wiring that sat in water can stay, or have to be replaced before the power goes back on.
