Brightwaters (11718) sits along Suffolk's South Shore, with West Islip, Bay Shore and Islip nearby. After the record Great South Bay flooding during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, mold from materials that stayed wet became a lasting problem for bayfront homes.
Flooded basements from the record August 2014 storm are a reminder of how quickly mold follows an incompletely dried loss. Controlling humidity after remediation is a standard step for waterfront homes. Coastal humidity in Brightwaters means damp materials dry slowly, and mold takes advantage of that window.
For Brightwaters property owners, that means finding the moisture behind the mold first, then containing and removing the growth safely.
The same crews cover nearby West Islip, Bay Shore and Islip. Crews also handle water damage in Brightwaters and fire and smoke damage in Brightwaters.
