Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
In the 44 ZIP codes associated with Austin, the typical housing construction period is 1990s. Moisture readings matter more than the build date. Vinyl flooring seams may admit water under the finish. Surface wiping does not establish a dry subfloor.
Intermittent AC cycles can hide a slow pan leak. Moisture mapping shows what stayed wet between cycles. An owner may need to coordinate access when a tenant discovers a damp ceiling. The crew checks conditions after the unit is stopped.
