Located on Suffolk's South Shore in the Town of Islip, Islip (11751) is a short drive from East Islip, West Islip and Great River. Islip was the center of the record August 13, 2014 rainfall, with 13.26 inches measured at MacArthur Airport.
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. Because so many homes are in flood zones, careful photos and moisture readings support the claim as much as the equipment does. Bay flooding is salt water carrying silt and debris, so cleanup goes well beyond the drying used for a clean-water pipe break.
For Islip property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
The same crews cover nearby East Islip, West Islip and Great River. Crews also handle fire and smoke damage in Islip and mold remediation in Islip.
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 continues until moisture readings return to acceptable levels, which varies with each job.
Crews handle bay and surge flooding, which involves salt water and debris and usually needs more than drying alone.
Safety depends on contamination and electrical conditions. Crews assess the situation and advise on whether to stay.
Burst or frozen supply lines, failed sump pumps, appliance and water heater leaks, roof leaks, and storm flooding are among the usual causes in Islip.
