Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

An estimated 78% of local homes are owner-occupied; owners should check backup coverage under their own policy. The typical home in the ZIP codes around South Kent was built in the 1950s. Older South Kent houses can have layers of flooring that conceal sewage beneath a recent finish. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.

Snow and ice outside do not reveal how much contamination reached indoor flooring. An owner should ask the septic company about the source and the water damage crew about indoor materials.
