Extended outages after storms such as Isaias in 2020 leave basements without dehumidification, which gives mold an opening. Moisture left inside walls after an old leak can feed mold for months.

For Islip Terrace property owners, that means finding the moisture behind the mold first, then containing and removing the growth safely.
