Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 1,299 housing units in the Drew ZIP area include varied floors and wall assemblies. Moisture checks must fit the actual structure. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Drew was built in the 1970s. A pinhole in aging copper can dampen insulation before a stain appears. Readings help find the affected cavity. Opening the cavity can expose wet backing and studs.
Warm-climate construction may leave pipes in less protected spaces. A cold snap can catch those lines. Attic water can run down framing into lower rooms.
