Dry the structure and verify

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 38% of homes in the Flippin ZIP codes went up before 1980, when galvanized and early copper plumbing was the norm. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Flippin was built in the 1980s. Laminate and vinyl flooring from remodels of this era hide seams that trap water. The crew checks the underlayment, not only the surface.
Occasional hard freezes catch heater pipes in garages and attics by surprise. The leak often appears only after the thaw. Owners decide how fast to act. Calling the crew and the plumber together stops the water sooner and puts the first photos on file.
