Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Around 9% of homes were built in 2000 or later; newer rooms can still hold contaminated water beneath flooring. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Wausau was built in the 1980s. The crew checks whether sewage traveled under newer floating flooring. Porous surfaces need assessment when Category 3 water touches them.
High humidity may slow structural drying after Category 3 cleaning.
