Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Among 25 local ZIP codes, building age varies enough that the crew checks actual materials rather than assuming one assembly. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Baltimore was built in the 1940s. Older Baltimore houses can have layers of flooring that conceal sewage beneath a recent finish. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.
A seasonal shift may change outdoor work conditions without changing the need for indoor sanitizing. A mixed housing area can include single homes and managed properties with different access rules.
