Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 25% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Hillsborough was built in the 1970s. Homes from this period can differ widely in bathroom and basement layouts. Sanitizing begins after wastewater is removed from reachable areas.
Cold outdoor air does not sanitize sewage-contaminated materials within a house. With many owner-occupied homes in Hillsborough, property owners can keep a direct record of cleanup work for their insurer.
