Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 42% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Chateaugay was built in the 1970s. A floor drain may sit beside finished space added decades later. The septic company handles the source while cleanup addresses the rooms.
Frozen ground may affect a specialist approach to the system, but it does not change Category 3 precautions inside.
