Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Approximately 10% of housing units were built in 2000 or later. Newer fittings and appliance hoses can still leak. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Davis was built in the years before 1940. Older floor assemblies may have several finish layers. Water can become trapped between them after a pipe break. Each layer is checked before the dry-out plan is finalized.
A hard freeze raises the chance of pipe damage, but the actual wet area still needs measurement. A crew documents the actual building materials affected.
