Islandia (11749) is in the Town of Islip, in the western part of Suffolk County, close to Hauppauge, Bohemia and Ronkonkoma. The August 2014 storm dropped a state-record 13.26 inches of rain on Islip, and basements in the surrounding area flooded.
Suffolk County has roughly 380,000 cesspools and septic systems, according to the county health department, which makes sewage backups a recurring cause of water damage. Many basements in western Suffolk rely on a sump pump, and a pump that fails during a storm or power outage is a common trigger for a flooded basement. Behind finished basement walls, slow leaks from water heaters and washing machine lines can go unseen for weeks.
For Islandia property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.

Trapped moisture inside walls and subfloors can lead to mold growth within a day or two, along with warped flooring and weakened materials.
The final cost depends on scope and materials. If the loss is covered, crews can bill the carrier directly.
Shut off the water if possible, avoid electrical hazards, and photograph the damage before anything is moved.
Yes, sewage cleanup is included, with sanitizing and proper disposal of contaminated materials.
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.
