Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
In the ZIP codes tied to Big Stone City, 33% of homes date from before 1960. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Big Stone City was built in the 1970s. Upstairs laundry in a two-story home from this period sends leaks through older ceiling drywall. Insulation above the ceiling holds the water. The crew checks the joist bay.
Long winters push laundry into basements, garages and mudrooms. Cold air holds little moisture, so crews add heat and run dehumidifiers longer. A hose in an unheated space can also freeze and crack. With most homes owner-occupied, the washer is often the owner's own purchase. The owner decides whether to repair or replace it after the dry-out.
