Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The housing profile places the typical construction decade at years before 1940, while 1% of units date from 2000 or later. Actual plumbing varies by property. Materials hidden behind finished walls deserve careful moisture checks. Soaked insulation and wall material may need removal.
Crawl-space runs may freeze during sustained winter weather. Water can wet the underside of the subfloor. Multiunit buildings can carry water from one unit into another. The crew checks the path through walls and ceilings.
