Getting to Know Plandome
Plandome is a small village of older homes on the east shore of Manhasset Bay, with its own LIRR station. Up on the North Shore, Plandome lies along Manhasset Bay. Plandome governs itself as an incorporated village within the Town of North Hempstead in Nassau County, and its village building department is usually the office that signs off on repairs. The Census Bureau measures Plandome at about 0.49 square miles of land.
Its neighbors include Flower Hill, Kings Point, Manhasset, Plandome Heights and Plandome Manor.
Plandome Homes and Their Claims
Plandome has a large share of older homes, many built before World War II, with plaster walls, original millwork and wiring and plumbing that have been updated piecemeal. Matching discontinued materials and bringing repairs up to current code are frequent points of disagreement.
What Goes Wrong on Plandome Claims
Homes near Manhasset Bay face storm surge during nor'easters and tropical storms. The wind-versus-water question decides which policy pays, which deductible applies (many Long Island policies carry a separate hurricane or windstorm deductible), and how much the homeowner recovers.
Check your address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center to see whether your Plandome home is in a mapped flood zone, and keep your flood and homeowners policies together.
