Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The data indicates 56% of nearby housing units were built before 1960. Renovations can change the floor and wall layers a crew finds. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Saint Onge was built in the 1950s. A house dating before 1960 may contain multiple floor layers. Extraction begins at the surface, then readings assess what lies beneath.
Cold weather does not prevent an old AC stain from hiding damp material. Moisture readings test the condition found. If the AC has leaked into flooring, an owner can photograph the initial condition before extraction. The crew then records moisture.
