Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 47% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Hillsdale was built in the 1960s. Basement conversions from this era can add finished walls near low drains. Protective extraction follows the contamination path, not a construction date.
Cold outdoor air does not sanitize sewage-contaminated materials within a house. An owner should ask the septic company about the source and the water damage crew about indoor materials.
