Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 36% of homes in the mapped Lenox ZIP codes predate 1980; older finishes may hide later remodels. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Lenox was built in the 1980s. Bathroom renovations may leave concealed transitions that collect water. Sanitizing begins after wastewater is removed from reachable areas.
