Across Suffolk County, an estimated 380,000 homes and buildings rely on cesspools or septic systems, so sewage backups and failed systems are a distinct source of water damage here.

Garages, lower enclosures, and mechanical equipment near the ground are the first to take on water, even in homes that were raised.
