The cabinet base and nearby boards may dry at different rates. The crew measures each material again before clearing the work area.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
ACS figures show 93% owner occupancy among the 742 housing units in the listed areas. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Falmouth was built in the 1970s. A kitchen of this period may have vinyl over a wood base. Where finishes overlap, the crew tests the lower layer before concluding that the visible surface has dried.
Long winter cold can chill tubing near an outside wall. The crew still traces the actual leak path rather than assuming weather explains every wet board. Owner households may coordinate appliance and floor work directly. Occupants should point out every affected room so the technician can map the full footprint.
