Located on Suffolk's South Shore in the Town of Islip, West Islip (11795) is a short drive from Islip, Brightwaters and East Islip. Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 brought record coastal flooding to the Great South Bay, with a surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet along the southwest Suffolk shore, according to the National Weather Service.
More than 10 inches of rain fell in West Islip during the record storm of August 13, 2014, according to local reports. Rain on top of a high tide can overwhelm storm drains and sump pumps in low-lying bayfront neighborhoods. With flood-zone properties common here, crews put real effort into clear records of the loss for carriers and flood policies.
In practice, crews in West Islip focus on stopping the source, removing standing water quickly, and drying structure and contents to acceptable moisture levels.
Crews also serve nearby Islip, Brightwaters and East Islip. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in West Islip and mold remediation in West Islip.
Crews handle bay and surge flooding, which involves salt water and debris and usually needs more than drying alone.
Cost depends on the extent of the damage, the materials affected, and how long water sat. Covered losses are often billed to the insurance carrier directly, and the on-site evaluation is free.
If it is safe, stop the water source, turn off power to affected areas, and move valuables to a dry place. Take photos for your insurance claim.
Sewage from a failed cesspool or septic system needs containment and sanitizing, not just drying. Many policies treat backups separately, so check what yours covers.
Drying time varies with the extent of water, the materials, and conditions, and it is monitored until moisture readings reach normal levels.
