Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 22% of local homes predate 1960. Galvanized and early copper plumbing may be present in some of them. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Days Creek was built in the 1970s. Cabinet bases and flooring seams can hold water from older sink connections. Drying requires access to those spaces. Wet flooring can extend beyond the cabinet footprint.
Some pipes can split before a brief cold event ends. Check for leaks during the thaw. The supply should be shut off if a split is found.
