Call 631-769-2769Long Beach (11561) is one of the communities in the South Shore area; neighboring areas include Island Park, Atlantic Beach and Point Lookout. Incorporated in 1922 as a planned beach resort, Long Beach sits on a barrier island between Reynolds Channel and the Atlantic.
The city sustained heavy damage during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and most properties are in high-risk flood zones with flood insurance requirements. Materials that were submerged or soaked during a storm are the most common source of mold afterward. Controlling humidity after remediation is especially important close to the water. Finding hidden moisture is key, since visible mold often represents only part of the problem.
For Long Beach property owners, that means finding the moisture behind the mold first, then containing and removing the growth safely.
Nearby areas served include Island Park, Atlantic Beach and Point Lookout. Crews also handle water damage in Long Beach and fire and smoke damage in Long Beach.
Mold can aggravate allergies and respiratory conditions, so prompt, contained removal is recommended.
Typical steps are inspection, containment, air filtration, removal of affected materials, cleaning and treatment, and verification that the area is clear.
Inspection includes moisture readings and, where needed, testing to locate growth behind walls and under floors.
It depends on the size and location of the work. Crews advise after assessment.
Coverage depends on the cause. Mold resulting from a covered sudden water loss is more likely to be covered, while long-term neglect usually is not. Crews provide documentation for the claim.
