1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The assessor marks water levels and affected finishes while documenting Category 3 contact.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The contractor records the water removed and checks whether entry continues during the job.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The contractor explains each proposed removal with photographs and material findings.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Daily moisture logs help confirm that wall and floor layers are moving toward drying goals.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

About 37% of housing units in the listed Andersonville ZIPs predate 1980. Older finishes can affect water access, but the technician checks the building itself. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Andersonville was built in the 1980s. A 1980s or 1990s house can have low garage openings exposed to runoff. The assessor checks the adjacent walls.

A hard freeze can block an outdoor drain before the next storm. A homeowner should review the contractor’s scope and report the storm loss to the insurer.
