The crew logs equipment use and material readings for the claim record. Paint and board replacement follow the verified dry-out.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Some houses built in this period contain polybutylene plumbing with a known failure history. A plumber identifies the material and repairs the source.
