Copiague (11726) sits along Suffolk's South Shore, with Lindenhurst, Amityville and Babylon 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.
Controlling humidity after remediation is a standard step for waterfront homes. After flooding, materials that stay wet behind walls and under floors are the usual starting point for mold. Finding hidden moisture is what keeps mold from returning after removal.
For Copiague property owners, that means finding the moisture behind the mold first, then containing and removing the growth safely.
The same crews cover nearby Lindenhurst, Amityville and Babylon. Crews also handle water damage in Copiague and fire and smoke damage in Copiague.
