Outages that last days let damp basements stay damp, which favors mold. After flooding, materials that stay wet behind walls and under floors are the usual starting point for mold. Lasting results depend on drying and correcting the source, since bay humidity can bring moisture back quickly.
That is why acting early matters in Mastic: mold spreads wherever moisture stays.
The same crews cover nearby Moriches, Mastic Beach and Center Moriches. Crews also handle water damage in Mastic and fire and smoke damage in Mastic.
