Crews serving Shirley (11967) also cover nearby Mastic Beach, Brookhaven and Mastic. Flooding from Hurricane Sandy in 2012 soaked bayfront homes along the Great South Bay, and wet materials left behind are a classic source of mold.
Power loss after a major storm stops dehumidifiers and sump pumps, and mold can follow within days.
