Call 631-735-5749Bay Shore (11706) is one of the communities on Suffolk's South Shore; neighboring areas include Brightwaters, Babylon and West Islip. 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.
Mold after the August 2014 flood became common where basements stayed damp. Persistent dampness in garages and lower enclosures near the water table is a frequent source of mold. Humid air off the bays keeps moisture levels high, so mold can settle in fast after any leak or flood.
That is why acting early matters in Bay Shore: mold spreads wherever moisture stays.
Nearby areas served include Brightwaters, Babylon and West Islip. Crews also handle water damage in Bay Shore and fire and smoke damage in Bay Shore.

Flood-soaked materials are a leading cause of mold, which is why quick extraction and drying matter after any bay or harbor flooding.
Coverage depends on the cause. Mold resulting from a covered sudden water loss is more likely to be covered, while long-term neglect usually is not. Crews provide documentation for the claim.
