        "text": "Preventing mold is a top priority during storm-damaged drywall replacement. After removing all wet materials, the affected area is thoroughly dried using specialized equipment like industrial fans and dehumidifiers to reduce humidity levels. Antimicrobial treatments may be applied to exposed framing and surfaces to inhibit mold growth. It's crucial that all dampness is eliminated before new drywall is installed. Proper ventilation throughout the drying process also plays a vital role.",
