- Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
- Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
- Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
ACS figures put 22% of local units before 1960. A technician checks the actual floor and wall layers instead of assuming their age. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Ozan was built in the 1970s. Mid-century homes sometimes have low exterior doors. A storm flood can move quickly through that opening into adjacent rooms.
Mixed weather can bring wind-driven rain through damaged openings. The wet interior needs measured drying.
