Massapequa (11758) is one of the communities on the South Shore; neighboring areas include Massapequa Park, Farmingdale and Wantagh. Massapequa is on the South Shore in a FEMA flood zone and was directly hit by Hurricane Sandy's surge in 2012.
Flood exposure combines with aging post-war plumbing in many Massapequa homes, which raises the stakes for any leak or flood. After the fire is out, water used to put it out frequently causes more damage than the flames, so drying and smoke cleaning go together. Securing a damaged home quickly protects it from the wind and moisture that come off the bay. Rebuilding after storms left many Massapequa homes with new sections joined to older ones, and mixed wiring ages are a fire consideration.
