-
Map moisture

Remove soaked material

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 3,034 housing units in the Kiel ZIP area include varied floors and wall assemblies. Moisture checks must fit the actual structure. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Kiel was built in the 1970s. A pipe behind a tiled wall can wet backing materials for some time. The technician assesses each layer. A technician may need to inspect the opposite wall face.
Exterior hose connections can be vulnerable in deep cold. Interior wall cavities may also get wet. Moisture readings help define the affected wall area. A homeowner can call the insurer while extraction begins. The policy determines coverage.
What Does Flood Cleanup Cost in Kiel, WI?
