What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A basement may look clean while moisture sits inside wall bases. The crew measures those layers and starts drying after Category 3 cleaning.
- Keep children, pets and visitors outside contaminated rooms.
- Stop using toilets, showers, sinks and laundry until a septic company evaluates the system.
- Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
- Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.
- Move clean belongings only when the route does not cross wastewater.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Among 2 local ZIP codes, building age varies enough that the crew checks actual materials rather than assuming one assembly. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Gainesville 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.
The technician checks moisture inside the building rather than inferring conditions from the forecast.
