Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 12% of housing units in the Augusta ZIP area date from 2000 or later. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Augusta was built in the 1960s. Cabinets from this period often use absorbent board at the base. Prompt extraction limits continued wetting of those raw edges.
Winter protection reduces risk, but an active leak still needs source control and extraction. Homeowners can move dry contents away from a leaking sink while a crew checks the cabinet base.
