Mastic Beach (11951), on the south side of Suffolk County, borders or sits near Mastic, Shirley and Moriches. Mastic Beach homes that took on Sandy floodwater, up to 4 feet deep in places, often needed careful drying to prevent mold.
Extended outages after storms such as Isaias in 2020 leave basements without dehumidification, which gives mold an opening.
