Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Approximately 21% 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 Dongola was built in the 1970s. Some homes from these decades have multiple generations of plumbing. A crew checks where water traveled, not only where it began. Material age alone does not determine what can be saved.
Basement plumbing can fail during prolonged cold. Pumps and extraction remove the water left behind. Basement contents may need sorting after pumping.
