Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 71% of homes in the mapped Oak Bluffs ZIP codes predate 1980; older finishes may hide later remodels. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Oak Bluffs was built in the 1950s. Wall and floor assemblies in older buildings can be difficult to see from the surface. Sanitizing begins after wastewater is removed from reachable areas.
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.
