Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 93% of housing units in the listed Thurmond ZIPs predate 1980. Older finishes can affect water access, but the technician checks the building itself. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Thurmond was built in the years before 1940. A pre-1960 house can contain layered floor finishes that trap stormwater. The assessor maps each wet layer.
The technician checks the entry route after mixed weather brings runoff indoors. The crew may need access to neighboring apartments to map shared wet walls.
