Islip Terrace (11752) sits in West Suffolk, with Bohemia, Central Islip and Islandia nearby. After the record August 2014 rainfall in Islip, basements that flooded and were not dried completely often developed mold.
Power loss after a major storm stops dehumidifiers and sump pumps, and mold can follow within days. Humid summers keep basements damp, and a dehumidifier that cannot keep up lets mold take hold on stored items and framing. Finished basements built over original slabs can hide moisture behind paneling and carpet for a long time before growth becomes visible.
