Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 63% of the local housing stock predates 1960, and 13% arrived in 2000 or later. Moisture testing identifies each assembly. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Lehigh was built in the 1940s. Layered walls in older properties can slow drying without selective access.
Cold crawl spaces and exterior corners deserve attention after sprinkler water appears. Owners should confirm policy terms while the crew extracts water from affected rooms.
