- Avoid touching sewage, wet carpeting or exposed electrical equipment.
- Photograph visible damage from a dry, safe location.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Around 29% 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 Bandy was built in the 1970s. A floor drain may sit beside finished space added decades later. The septic company handles the source while cleanup addresses the rooms.
In Bandy, a septic specialist handles the cause while the crew treats water that entered living space.
