Standing water spreads across seams and into flooring layers. Extraction starts the process, then controlled airflow handles absorbed moisture.

2. Trace damp materials

   The team documents wet materials in adjoining rooms, not just the first room.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Wet wallboard that cannot dry in place is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Verify the dry-out
