Call 631-239-7110Central Islip (11722), in the western part of Suffolk County, borders or sits near Islip Terrace, Brentwood and Bohemia. On August 13, 2014, 13.26 inches of rain fell at MacArthur Airport in Islip, a New York State 24-hour record that flooded parts of southwest Suffolk.
Suffolk County has roughly 380,000 cesspools and septic systems, according to the county health department, which makes sewage backups a recurring cause of water damage. Bathrooms and kitchens in older homes often have original shutoff valves and supply connections that stick or fail when they are needed most. Because Central Islip filled in with suburban housing over many years, supply lines and water heaters of very different ages sit side by side from one block to the next.
For Central Islip property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
