Hicksville is one of the communities in central Nassau County; neighboring areas include Levittown, Plainview and Bethpage. Sump pumps added decades after construction are common here, and a pump that quits during a storm is one of the usual triggers for a flooded basement.
Hicksville was built out quickly in the post-war years, and the pipes and water heaters that came with those houses are aging out at about the same time. Basements and crawlspaces here were built before modern vapor-barrier practices, which lets ground moisture work its way in after heavy rain.
