Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 63% of occupied units in the listed ZIP codes are owner-occupied. Keep source and drying records regardless of ownership. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Rome was built in the 1950s. A bathroom in an early house may have later plumbing threaded through old framing. The technician checks nearby cavities, not only the visible drip.
Bathrooms near unheated spaces face added winter exposure. A water loss can wet insulation both beside the pipe and under the floor. An upstairs bathroom can affect a neighbor below in multi-unit housing. The technician measures each accessible affected area and records the path.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
