I had a rental property flood in Monroe back in March. I'm telling you what every contractor or anyone with knowledge will tell you.
If it gets above your baseboards, you might as well ripped the whole 4' piece out. It's actually harder on the person floating the Sheetrock later on if you try to just cut out the wet piece. Sheetrock is not that expensive, making them spend extra time measuring and cutting is.

OK, got it.
What if it's like 5' from floor?
Just remove all 8'?

quote:you can also purchase a 4'6" X 12' board of Sheetrock too. There's a local distributor in BR called Interior / Exterior that carries both 4' wide and 4'6" wide Sheetrock. We bought from them from the last flood and that 6" made a difference at our camp. Only had to replace the bottom sheet and a little bit of the one above it.
