Brookhaven (11719) is one of the communities on the south side of Suffolk County; neighboring areas include Shirley, Bellport and Mastic Beach. Homes that took on bay water during Sandy in 2012 often developed hidden mold where drywall and insulation stayed damp.
Damp bay air slows natural drying, which gives mold more time to establish after water gets in. Persistent dampness in garages and lower enclosures near the water table is a frequent source of mold. Dehumidification and source correction matter especially close to the water.
In practice, crews in Brookhaven combine inspection, containment, and removal with drying and moisture control to reduce repeat growth.

Yes, if materials stay wet. Drywall, insulation, and flooring that were soaked can grow mold within days unless they are dried or removed.
Very small surface spots can sometimes be handled at home, but larger or hidden growth needs containment and proper removal so spores do not spread.
Mold needs moisture, so leaks, flooding, condensation, and poor ventilation are the usual causes. Basements, attics, and bathrooms are common spots.
Typical steps are inspection, containment, air filtration, removal of affected materials, cleaning and treatment, and verification that the area is clear.
It depends on the size and location of the work. Crews advise after assessment.
