        "text": "Addressing subfloor issues is mandatory before installing new flooring in a foreclosed home. Foreclosed properties frequently sit vacant for months, leading to hidden problems like pet waste saturation, water leaks, or wood rot under ruined carpet or vinyl. As a general contractor handling rehab projects, HH Remodeling inspects the framing and subfloor beneath damaged coverings. Our crew cuts out deteriorated OSB or plywood sections, screws down loose areas to eliminate squeaks, and applies stain-blocking sealers when odor or moisture has soaked into the wood. Placing new flooring directly over compromised subflooring leads to early failure, warping, or persistent odors.",
