What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Keep children, pets and visitors outside contaminated rooms.

- Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
- Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.
- Move clean belongings only when the route does not cross wastewater.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 13% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Wauchula was built in the 1980s. Subfloor seams can allow wastewater to move beyond the first visible spot. Moisture readings help show whether the floor assembly is affected.
A mild winter does not remove the exposure risk from contaminated water.
