    in a small flood loss where water is below 4' scenario

    in a flood loss do you r&r the studs up to 4'  or just apply germicide chemicals to remove fungi.  i know you r & r  drywall (& insulation) up to 4'  but wasn't sure about the studs... it's been a while

     

    any feedback would be appreciated

    You only replace studs if water was in the building for an extended period of time (weeks).  You can allow to treat studs with mildewcide but you better have a good reason and good photos if you feel you have to replace them.
