3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   The technician explains why each affected material stays or leaves during Category 3 cleanup.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The crew records temperature, humidity and material condition through the dry-out.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Across 1 ZIP code around Lehigh, about 355 housing units create many different floor and drain layouts. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Lehigh was built in the 1940s.
