About 27% of area homes were built in 2000 or later. New finishes can still conceal wet subfloor. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Wounded Knee was built in the 1990s. Water can track along laminate seams toward another room. Surface appearance alone does not establish a dry assembly.
An unheated space near a heating run can create additional exposure. The cleanup plan follows actual material readings. A mixed ownership pattern means different people may report a heating leak. The crew still maps the same floor and wall materials.
