What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Once contaminated materials are removed, remaining damp structure needs controlled drying. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials.
- Keep the bathroom closed to children and pets.
- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.
- Take photos from a dry doorway if the view is safe.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Around 5% of homes were built in 2000 or later; newer rooms can still hold contaminated water beneath flooring. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Lockney was built in the 1950s. A property built before 1960 may have altered drains and later finish layers. A technician maps the wet materials behind any visible stain.
The technician checks moisture inside the building rather than inferring conditions from the forecast.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
