Located in the South Shore area, Massapequa Park (11762) is a short drive from Massapequa, Seaford and Farmingdale. Low elevation and a high water table near the South Shore bays make Massapequa Park more prone to flooding than inland areas.
Low-lying lots mean that a stalled sump pump during a big storm can put a basement under water fast. Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 pushed storm surge into many South Shore neighborhoods, and its flooding history still shapes how property owners here think about water. Bay flooding is not clean water, so sanitizing and removing affected materials is a bigger part of the job.
For Massapequa Park property owners, that means starting extraction and drying early and documenting the loss carefully for the claim.
